Ugiz, good points.
The introspecting you bring up is one of the better ways to soften karma. You can catch the problem when it's in one of the mental/emotional stages, make changes because you are aware of the effects of the cause you are about to create and stop the manifestation before it happens.

I have found, though, to burst the bubble here, that when something is going to manifest, I can almost watch myself walk right into it as if something is compelling me to, despite my best efforts to figure out how not to! I suppose that 'compelling' that I'm feeling is in some deeper level of unconsciousness that I haven't gotten to yet.

Yes, that unconscious stuff potentially (or inevitably) lurking is what drives me to cling to the concept or experience or belief or what ever you want to call it, of pure spirit/God/Brahman. I just want to embed my entire being in the protective shroud of omniscient causality. I can't think of a safer place to operate from.

I think the 'energizing of the spine' that you are experiencing with the Kriya is the subconscious 'waking up' into consciousness, at least that's what it looks like to me.

I read a very interesting couple of pages of Jung this morning where he goes into the psyche being energy. He draws some interesting parallels to quantum physics. I'll try to post some of it a little later.

Punk and Etz,
Off topic here, but one of the more delightful explanations of personality type I have encountered is in "Jung's Typology"
by Marie Louise von Franz and James Hillman. A reviewer wrote of von Franz:
"Her major contribution to the book is her exquisite anecdotal description of the inferior function."

As I best remember in one example she describes an accountant who was helped by adopting a horse to groom and care for. The point being that the peasant farmer was more likely to be immune to imbalances because they were familiar with seasons, life/death/birthing, natural cycles, whereas the townsman was divorced from certain aspects of experience.
