thank you all for sharing thoughts and the wisdom of experience!
anthony, yes, location can be a challenge! am determined to go for it while in washington dc tomorrow- though its easier said than done but while in the process of doing, the effort in surrender is the same.. as deep hope!
cold showers reminds sometimes of the monk sitting in meditation while on fire- tranquil and as spirit beyond the body.
emc, you are brave!
sparkle, isnt the joy of experience worth the discipline that we create to align in? yes, the energies are clean as they are in the moment of now- cold waters washes away past and future thoughts that are karmic in nature.
a process that nandhi's masters taught was to begin wetting the crown chakra first as though being baptized. imagining the one baptizing us as our masters i.e, babaji etc etc- bring our awareness to washing away the past. when the body is later brought under the cold water, the body consciousness has reduced to the point where there is actual joy!
...the feelings during the moments just after the cold shower and plunging into meditation is most exquisite. like speeding up a ramp to be thrown into the void absolute space beyond mind and body!
Cold Showers!
