Thank you Gordon and Gururattan for the great new page! I have a question

about Siddhasana and Padmasana. This page mentions that in Siddhasana the

left heel is placed on top, and in Padmasana the right leg should always be

on top. In my yoga classes we learned them the other way around - right heel

on top in Siddhasana and left leg on top in lotus pose (ie, first place

right foot on left thigh). It was a hatha yoga class - are these poses done

the other way around in KY? A friend of mine who did KY does Siddhasana with

right heel on top too.

 

Thank you and Sat Nam,

 

Alina

Dear Alina,

 

My gut feeling is that one should alternate to balance the pelvis or do what

is the most comfortable. I am personally not too much into rigidity at this

point in my life. Some people get enlightened by sitting in a tree or

standing on one leg. Heh, there are a lot more poses than the official

ones.

 

Sat Nam,

 

Gururattan Kaur :+)

Dear Gururattan Kaur,

 

Thank you for clearing up that point! I got confused because some teachers

insist on doing the asanas in just one way and I wasn't sure which is the

right way.

 

I would have two somewhat related questions. One is about sadhana. Because I

have a weird schedule (like most software tech people, I guess!) I sometimes

cannot do all things at the right time, to fit exercise, meditation and

chanting all in early morning. I am always trying to catch up in the evening

or at night, but I was wondering in this case, is there a better way to do

things? What should be done when? Or perhaps it is not so important for as

long as you do them?

 

The other question is about an effect I have been getting from meditation. I

have been experiencing recently frequent flashes up my spine, but they don't

start at the base of the spine, but right in the center and go both up and

down from there for something like a second at a time. Initially I would get

them only during meditation but now they can happen at any time. Is this

okay and is there anything I should or should not do?

 

Thank you and Sat Nam,

 

Alina
