Huge energetic release from chest through head

Hi guys,

I discovered a new powerful energetic pathway today - it combines a chest energy that makes it hard to breath with what I interpret to be the A&P.

First I sort of bear down energetically into the chest with sort of a breathless sadness/joy - its almost like I'm squeezing my heart with the mind. Then I feel the risingness of the energy and as it gets toward the throat I throw in some sort of A&P or fruitiony explosion and it shoots breathless ecstacy out the top of my head.

The phenomena I am using on the explosion is what I (perhaps wrongly) interpret to be the A&P. There is a squeezing of the eyes while they seem to roll up into the head while pulsing side to side very quickly. This creates a visual flash around the bottom area of the closed-eye visual field. It produces a lot of energy that is then released.

I think I am basically taking the chest energy, bringing it up into the head and blasting it out, which creates an almost breathless orgasmic effect.

Heartgasm?

A year ago when I was telling a friend who does qi gong about weird energy stuff I was enjoying, she scolded: "You know, people can actually die from messing with their energy in an uninformed way." I think at the time I rolled my eyes at her. But you might enjoy channeling (so to speak) your clever yogi tricks into a structured energy work practice (tummo, kundalini yoga, qi gong) where you can not only do fun stuff but also balance the system so it doesn't cause illness or other problems. I've been doing qi gong for six months now and it's fun, effective and very health-promoting and supportive of meditative insights, etc. (Can't resist the opportunity to pass on a chastisement, you know!)

Thats interesting Orasis - it sounds like a similar path to how metta goes from 1st to 2nd brahmavihara... If I do metta as a concentration on the feeling of love in the chest and giving it to someone, after a minute or two it will be up in the head (I have no control of this, and it seems to be very dark-nighty when it gets up there initially) and if I take it far enough (takes time, maybe 10-30 minutes) and extend out to the universe the metta changes from loving-kindness to a compassion feeling, tinged perhaps with joy, and shoots out of the top of the head... I wonder if thats the same pathway using a slightly different energy...?

Hmm, cool Bill. I will have to give your route a try and report back!
