"A summary of the mental, physical and spiritual benefits of

Kundalini Yoga Practice:

 

"The body field has a number of centers (called chakras). Each

center involves a group of glands and organs related to a plexus of

nerves linked to the spinal cord.

 

"The central nerve of the body field is the sushumna, which has

three parts:

 

"The Silver cord: The spinal cord, beginning at the sacral plexus and coming

up to the brain, then splitting through the passage to the Crown (Sahasrara)

and to the Ajna chakra between the eyebrows.

 

"The Gold cord: The extension between the Ajna and Crown, along

which are a number of other centers (chakras of a higher order). The

Gold Cord is to the Silver cord what the what light is to a shadow."

Question:

 

You mention that the silver cord goes from Crown to Ajna chakra and

then also mention that the portion that goes from Crown to Ajna chakra is

the Gold Cord. Are there two passages from the Crown to the Ajna Chakra?

 

Krishna

==============================

Dear Krishna,

 

Thanks for asking. To clarify:

 

The Silver cord is the spinal cord. When you practice KY you can feel the

energy coming through the spine then splitting forwards to the Ajna and up

the passage to the Crown.

 

>From the Ajna there is also a further assent to the Crown.

 

One of the practices of yoga starts at the Ajna and focuses upwards along

the Gold cord towards the Crown. This yoga is called Shabad Yoga or Naad

Yoga, and is part of the whole KY practice. Yogis say that the centers

along the Gold cord are as light to a shadow in comparison with the centers

along the Silver cord.

 

As the Kundalini fluid comes up into the brain, it enters the forth, then

the third ventricle of the brain, where the pineal gland protrudes. With

the entry of this fluid, the pineal gland begins to enlarge and secrete.

 

The pituitary (Ajna) is also effected and acts as a radar for the energy to

travel along the Gold cord to the Crown (Sahasrara).

 

Through the practice of KY, the glands, organs and their related nerve

plexuses become charged and revitalized. Toxins are discharged and each

center begins to come into a balance, then balancing in turn with all the

other centers of the body field.

 

With the building of a chemical electric charge throughout the nervous

system and within the centers (batteries) one will feel coolness, then heat,

then an etheric pervasiveness as the sexual fluids increase their flow of

vital fluids into the bloodstream allowing the nerves to carry a greater

charge.

 

Gradually, the body field comes into a powerful electromagnetic balance.

 

As the voltage increased, it begins to become possible to tap into the much

higher voltage of the Kandal, located between the navel and 4th vertebra,

which can be felt at the juncture of the pulling up on the anus, sex organs

and in on the navel, also called Mul Bhand or Root Lock.

 

When the electromagnetic charge of the body field becomes strong enough

there is an automatic pulling and locking at the Kandal and the energy is

released downwards, causing a drop of sexual fluid to pierce into the spinal

cord and move upwards towards the much higher inner voltage of the brain, as

described above.

 

While yogis have gone about describing this mechanism in some detail, with

practice, this will happen regardless of technical knowledge within a

relatively short period of time.

 

There are four energy systems:

1. The pranic system, which operates through the blood stream bringing life

and vitality and electromagnetic energy to the body field

2. The Kundalini Mata Shakti system, which operated within the nervous

system opening all the centers of the Silver cord directly. Many people

mistaken pranic experiences for the Kundalini.

3. The system of the Gold cord, wherein inner sights and sounds are heard,

which brings about a progressive evolution of the body resulting from the

secretions of the pineal and other related glands, and some say the Divine

Body, where the Yogi becomes a Maha Siddha, attains all occult powers and

youth, such as Naranda, Milarepa, Dattatreya and others.

4. The system of the Hrdayam, which is located between the synod or

pacemaker of the heart, 2 digits to the right of the sternum, and the Atma

Nadi between the Hrdayam and the Crown, where the Hrdayam, or spiritual

Heart is known as the Solar Orb and the Crown (Sahasrara) is known as the

Lunar Orb. This is because the Hrdayam is the Self-Effulgent "I" Light of

the Body illumines and pervades the entire body and the brain with "I am"

consciousness, which is the basis for the sense of identity we have to

thoughts and sensations of the body field. This is the system taught by the

Saviors, such as Buddha, Christ, Rama, Krishna and the Sikh Gurus, as with

the opening of the Hrdayam, one aides in Truth and becomes Truth Itself.

 

The Hrdayam is the door through which is the substratum or ground of all

pervasive Being/Consciousness. The knot of the "I" to the thoughts and

sensations is located here, such that regardless of what we are referring to

in relation to our identity and activities, such as "I ran.I thought.I

am this and that.I experienced..." - we always point to this location.

 

When, through the practice of KY, non-judgment, forgiveness and devotion,

the body field becomes pure, and the slightest enquiry is made into the

origin of this "I" sense, the knot is sundered and the door opens, the mind

inverts reflecting the pulsation of Self-Knowledge purely, such that no

thoughts or images or impressions can manifest.

 

While the other systems involve some systematic and concerted practice, the

system of the Hrdayam and Atma Nadi, require only the simple and direct

enquiry into the source of the sense of "I" - the source of seeing, which is

to say, the seer.

 

When the Seer is isolated, the body field is at once caught into a

gravitational force field - a Singularity that pulses "I, I, I, I, I....."

which entirely outshines all the body field's centers and systems,

dissolving even the electro-magnetic field itself, the astral body. With

the dissolution of the sense of an identity between the sense of "I" focused

attention through the lens of the mind to varying thoughts, sensations and

impressions, all ideas of being a doer, of causality, of time and space, of

conditions simply fall away, as though having pierced the veil, there abides

the single Witness of the world all its dimensions as undifferentiated

pervading light.

 

With the practice of KY and the reading of non-dual scripture and texts that

are at the core of every Religion (Hinduism, Buddhism, Christianity,

Sikhism, Sufism), quickly there is a sensation of inner hearing of the Truth

(atma-sphurana), and you awaken and emerge as the True Man, the True Woman,

where "Me and God (I AM), God and Me are One."

 

Kundalini Yoga, as taught by Yogi Bhajan, engulfs all these systems.
