Kundalini Yoga: Solar Plexus Chakra Symbology

Kundalini Yoga: Solar Plexus Chakra Symbology

Looking at the chakra system of the kundalini yoga, Campbell explores the third chakra — the solar plexus and its impulse to power.

For more on the yoga of the kundalini, see Joseph Campbell’s The Inner Reaches of Outer Space: Myth As Metaphor and As Religion (https://www.jcf.org/works/titles/the-inner-reaches-of-outer-space/) or Mythos II: The Shaping of the Eastern Tradition (https://www.jcf.org/works/titles/the-shaping-of-the-eastern-tradition/)

    The failure to expand the solar plexus is the cause of every ill to the human race. Physical, mental or environmental.

    Jesus love you, he died on the cross for you, accept him as your lord and savior he can change everything. For God so loved the world that he gave his only son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life" (Jn 3:16"

    But you must repent too. From that time Jesus went about preaching and saying, Let your hearts be turned from sin, for the kingdom of heaven is near. (Matthew 4:17)^

    Disjointed, hacked up, out of context bits and pieces of Campbell"s message?
    The world needs, for example, the full Moyer / Campbell interviews uncut, But this foumdation is instead hacking Campbell’s core messages up into tiny little disjointed hacked up bits and pieces. They are doing that as teasers to commercially monetize Campbel’s work.
    The very nature of Campell’s works must remain freely available, intact, in context, and sui- generis on a "giving foot forward" monetization model, which primarily is not the JC Foundation monetization model.
    Does this greedy foundation have copyrights on these works?
    Why can’t anyone post these works up on IE. You Tube etc. free uncut unedited? For instance the full uncut Campbel / Moyers series.
    Why is Moyer not acting to counter this outrage?
    How to obtain these works intact & unedited now like when Campbell was alive without profiteering? That would be Campbell’s will.
    The Campbell Foundation, in the guise of proliferating Campbell’s body of work, is instead fragmenting it for commercial monetary motives.
    So aggravating!
    Seriously any effort to keep Campbell’s work free, and free of being hacked up, and free of being exploited by the world system, then count us in.
    Metaphorically speaking: God was out for a stroll one day with the devil following along & imitating God. God was carrying something "he" had picked up along the way. The devil runs up and asks. "whatcha got there God?" God replies, "I got the truth." The devil then says," give it to me & I will organize it for you!".
    JC Foundation you need to stop "money changing on the temple steps".

    Thank you for posting this Videos. He was a great teacher of an incredible amount of knowledge learned and experienced. Somehow these words don’t express what I want to say. He was between the worlds and acted as navigator for others and he did a great job. From within
