Jesus came into my life when l was saved and he lit the fire of my lamp (that was already in me) when l made a decision to make him my Lord.
I won't let the flame go out by falling asleep.
I Asked God For His Spirit
it took a while

My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, no one can snatch them out of my Father's hand. I and my Father are one.

Miki, can you explain what this is please?
Curious to know what you are exactly referring to regarding Kundalini.
Looking forward to hearing what you have to say.
Thanks.

When l was saved l had the fullness of Christ. At 8 years old.
But it just wasn't released in me...and still isn't (the fullness that is) but there's more and more all the time...
When l finally believed in 1979...I was born again. It birthed the decision to change. I bought a Bible...l burned my old books...God brought an awesome mentor across my path who just happened to have been delivered from the same things as myself.
Sanctification had begun! Even though at the time l didn't understand what those words ment....God didn't care...He was molding and shaping me.
Hell became a raging storm
But l stood.... 
I'm not going to tell you the next 25 or so years of life experiances that have brought me here today.
But I began to speak in 1999...in more of an official manner even though l'd been hearing God for years and years...'God' called me to step out.
To a few church members etc...(I had a bit to learn still and the enemy was waiting
)) Now l only speak to those in authority over me and allow them to make decisions surrounding what l say. At least in Church where spoken words can effect a lot of people.
I know submitting like that probably bugs a few of you but that's the decision l made out of love and respect for my Pastor.
My prayer partner and l share what he shows me...Thank God for a great prayer partner!
Is he going to, as Pam says, give me a "new" indwelling of the Holy Spirit? Or just reveal more of his indwelling presence? Is This a matter of semantics?
My educated guess would be the first...But l have a sneaky feeling it's both...knowing how God sometimes works...But God is omnipotent anyway...He is all and all and everywhere. I trust him.

Another meaning of a new indwelling is to receive a new insight, new understanding. That is what I mean't. I didn't say that to draw on an emotion to create a certain effect, which is my understanding of the word semantic. I agreed with Coreluis to stand in agreement because I received the same insight that he did. I just worded it differenly. I think I am not understanding your post. Please forgive me and let me know if I got it totally wrong in my understanding.

Kundalini can be Googled...
Pam,
I didn't think you meant those things.. To me semantics is just two different ways of saying the same thing. When l was saved the lamp was placed in me(lamb) born again..Fire was lit...He comes to baptise with fire and the Holy Ghost.
With the fire of sanctification.
I wonder though...Not about the above but something l think God might have shown me today...Something coming, for me...
but l can't say....just a little shaken...

So after l have the lamp lamb in me (justification, salvation) ) the wick is lit by the fire of the Holy Spirit and sanctification begins...
If the lamp stays lit it must eventually run out of oil or the other 5 virgins wouldn't need to be asking the others for some.
There must have to be a new infilling of the cruet...?
So how do you get the new oil after you've used up what you've got?
You go the the oil merchant of course!
Well...he probably used that metaphor because there actually were oil merchants in those days...They sold oil everywhere in the markets.
But the kind of oil we have can't be bought...I'm reminded of the rebuke given to someone who wanted to buy:
"But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money. Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy heart is not right in the sight of God. Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee. I perceive that thou art in the gall of bitterness, and in the bond of iniquity," Acts 8:20-23.
Although it's not exactly the same, in the OT Elisha's servant Gehazi tried to get money for Namans healing after Elisha had refused but Gehazi was struck with leprosy.
Freely ye heave received, freely give. So why would he tell the other 5 to go buy if it wasn't sarcastic....?
Maybe the kind of oil THEY had runs out.....But ours never runs out. It's an eternal spring in us...
As we burn it it keeps coming and coming like the menorah that never ran out of oil...
I don't think l need a Dr. after all!
