[Bigroza]

Recently I have begun energy work yet again in all earnestness, and
am experiencing a pronounced whistling in my left ear. This seemed
to start especially after beginning to focus my attention in the medulla
oblongata.

I am doing the energy raising and chakra stimulation routine found
in a Treatise on Astral Projection. I love that work all over again for
its succinctness.

However, I do have problems feeling the sacral and sometimes the
navel and heart chakras. Apparently one should locate them by listening
for sound effects associated with each chakra, but I'm hoping that
unwavering energy work and meditation will clear things up.

I waived the opportunity for more work/money recently, as I realize
that my free time as a student could best be spent solidifying an
appreciation for the search for God.

Putting all my energy and free time in that endeavor will be infinitely
better than waiting for waves of karma to carry me to the shores of an
earth-bound struggle from which my current spiritual ambition could not
survive.

As long as one has the shade of a tree, and water from the river, there
is no need to fear. - Shyamacharan Lahiri Mahasaya.
