In this episode I am joined by Tara Springett, a Buddhist psychotherapist who specialises in treating Kundalini Syndrome. Tara recounts emerging from a troubled childhood to experience her first of several spiritual awakenings through a type of consciousness expansion known as kundalini. Tara shares the diverse consequences of these experiences in her own life including a reckoning with her unconscious mind, a life-changing yearning for the divine, and paranormal encounters. Tara recounts her conversion to Tibetan Buddhism and time spent with teachers such as Rigdzin Shikpo and Garchen Rinpoche, who would both go onto encourage her to teach Buddhism. Tara details learning a range of Buddhist practices including compassion meditation, manifestation wish practice, and the inner yogas of tummo. Tara also shares her experiences channeling White Tara, and reflects on her understanding of the process of spiritual awakening and karmic purification that working with kundalini energy is said to bring about. … Video version at: www.guruviking.com/podcast/ep137-kundalini-awakening-tara-springett Also available on Youtube, iTunes, & Spotify – search ‘Guru Viking Podcast’. … Topics Include: 00:00 - Intro 01:05 - A troubled childhood and initial kundalini awakening 03:42 - What is kundalini? 04:48 - 4 effects of kundalini activity 07:05 - Paranormal experiences after kundalini awakening 09:16 - Are the different kundalini systems related? 12:51 - Radical transformation after Tara’s kundalini awakening 23:07 - Turning to God in the depths of kundalini crisis 28:28 - Finding Tibetan Buddhism 30:19 - Time in an unusual Buddhist community 36:24 - Studying with Lama Ole Nydahl and meeting Rigdzin Shikpo 38:37 - Buddhist manifestation techniques 40:12 - Receiving Dzogchen transmission from Garchen Rinpoche 44:17 - Encouraged to teach Buddhism by Garchen Rinpoche 47:33 - Bliss and purification 49:05 - The essence of Tara’s approach to kundalini awakening 54:14 - Difficult experience with tummo meditation 56:01 - Kundalini and extreme purification 59:42 - Rainbow appearance 01:02:29 - Marriage strife and Tara’s husband’s kundalini awakening 01:03:13 - Tantric relationships and taking your partner as your guru 01:12:50 - Tara’s recent intense lower chakra purifications 01:23:12 - Channeling the Buddhist deity White Tara 01:33:10 - Has Tara faced criticism for her channeling? 01:37:38 - Are there spiritually gifted people? 01:40:53 - The power of taking a spiritual name … To find out more about Tara, visit: - https://www.taraspringett.com/ … For more interviews, videos, and more visit: - www.guruviking.com
