Regarding the upward and downward flowing energies, I do experience this, but I guess I had trouble conceptualising it up to now. It is hard to describe, or even properly perceive, energetic processes going on in your body. Thank you all for your useful quotes and posts in that regard.
I guess it makes sense to refer to the upward flowing energy (Shakti) as fire and the Downward flowing one (Shiva or Heaven) as water. If you think about it, the popular imagery of both confirms these themes. Shiva has always been associated with water and Shakti with fire. It also makes sense that these energies meet, mix and merge in the heart, which is the central chakra. Hopefully, we'll manage to figure some of this out on this thread.
