What is spiritual emergency?
When spiritual seekers or even those who do not consider themselves to be on a spiritual path find themselves experiencing levels of awareness or energy transformation that they are unable to handle or for which they have no reference, then the result can be a state of emergency. In this state, a person feels highly vulnerable and oversensitive to incoming stimuli. Typically they feel overwhelmed, fragmented, fearful, confused and disoriented. With their absorption in inner processes, they may not be able to look after even basic self care.

a new organization, OPUS.
O.P.U.S.: Organization for Paranormal Understanding & Support
OPUS was formed as a response to a need for a "clearing house" organization to provide referral and research services for unusual personal experiences. Such experiences may include close encounters with nonhuman type entities and parapsychological phenomena. Our two basic goals are to assist persons who are seeking help in dealing with experiences outside the scope of mainstream health care, and to be a datagathering body to collect information which may further overall knowledge in these areas. This information would be made available to researchers, therapists and experiencers alike who share the common desire to make some sense of these anomalous experiences. Regardless of our interest personal, professional, academic, etc. we all want to get to the bottom of this mystery. OPUS was formed to interact with and complement the activities of other organizations such as MUFON, The Intruders Foundation, TREAT, CUFOS and the American Psychical Research Society. OPUS is presently regionallybased in the San Francisco Bay Area As a network, we hope to expand nationally for the mutual benefit of the many innovative groups around the country.

Information for caretakers
http://peakstates.com/spiritual_emergency.htm
As Spiritual Emergence Network helpers, we’re often faced with trying to support or reassure people who are experiencing a spiritual crisis which we may or may not recognize or understand ourselves. Especially when these people are in great suffering, many of us are often at a loss to know how to help in any specific way.

LIVING WITH KUNDALINI
Extract: It is a grave error to suppose that the arousal of kundalini can be achieved with impunity by anyone who applies himself to the discipline. The popular idea that the practices result simply in the activation of a new force in the body is fallacious.
