So, had another episode with overload. Moved my times from about 15 min DM and 6 min of Samyama to 20 DM and 8 Samyama and after a few days of that went straight into what felt like the flu for about six days.
Feel much better now but the last two days (day six and seven of this episode) my face feels very flush and warm to the touch, what's going on with that? What is the cause?
Does overloading like this with these symptoms cause any physical damage or regress your spiritual progress?
I asked this in some part because during the six days of feeling crappy, I was incredibly irritable and was not feeling like I believed any of the stuff I previously have been learning from Yogani and other spiritual teachings and was actively questioning it vigorously. It's slowly coming back, but it's like the overload almost wiped it all out. Like feeling at one with things and believing things like that.
Ppl's feedback would be welcome.
Also, what yogani says is true, overload setbacks like this do make you want to stop for a while so need to be careful going forward. Prob won't meditate again for a couple weeks at least
. This one was painful, will need to re-stoke the fires of bhakti.
