Guest guest Posted October 5, 2001 Report Share Posted October 5, 2001 Greetings Everyone. I am Gwen and I am brand spankin' new to Kundalini. My first experience with yoga were classes at the Eugene Yoga Center in Oregon. There, a typical yoga class involved mantras, eye exercises, a series of gentle postures, 20 minutes of relaxation and tea - which was served by our teacher as a way to invite students to stay and ask questions about yoga, life, and beyond. Though I have studied yoga since then and have taken many classes, I have found that much of Western Yoga lacks what my first classes offered. Now, I am teaching yoga and I very much want to recreate the atmosphere of the Eugene Yoga Center in my classes. I am intuitively drawn to Kundalini as I believe it is the source that will guide me towards a deeper and more meaningful practice and will guide my teaching. At this point, the only manual I have is Gururattana's Transitions to a Heart Centered World. Other than that, I have never taken a class and own no books, cassettes, or videos on Kundalini Practice. I would very much appreciate guidance about how to take the very first step. Thank you, Gwen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 7, 2001 Report Share Posted October 7, 2001 Hi, Gwen, Thanks for your introduction. I enjoyed your description of classes at the Eugene Yoga Center and your desire to recreate this atmosphere in your classes. In your posting, you asked for guidance on taking the first step in KY practice. I'm not one to offer firm guidance -- I'm pretty new to Kundalini Yoga myself -- but I can tell you what has helped beginner me. For me, having a teacher has been vital to getting started. Are there any KY teachers in your area? The 3HO website (http://www.3ho.org/) has a directory of certified teachers. I, too, have Gururattan's book "Transitions to a Heart-Centered World", and it's been a great resource. There are certain kriyas and meditations I have an affinity for and keep returning to, and this repetition reinforces my practice. Knowing a set well enough so I don't have to stop and read the directions each step of the way is very helpful. You mention that you're intuitively drawn to Kundalini. I've found that when I can't connect with my teacher (which is the case lately due to my schedule), an inner teacher arises and helps me. For example, I was doing a meditation that involved mantra, and I wasn't sure about the speed. I was chanting along at quite a clip, and the inner voice said, "slow down". I did, and that made a big difference. This list, too, is a fine resource. I appreciate all those who ask questions and share their experiences.

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2001 Report Share Posted October 8, 2001 Hi Preeti May I offer you a belated welcome to Kundalini Yoga. Your mail has been going to the correct address, as all your messages have been posted to the list. However that doesn't guarantee you a reply. A lot depends on what you write about and when, and how many folk feel motivated to reply. Rather than trying to initiate new discussions, why not just join in one that is already underway. Please remember to edit your replies to remove any non-relevant material from the original message, including old message trailers. I hope you enjoy your time on the list. Sat Nam!

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2001 Report Share Posted October 8, 2001 Dear Preeti, No one is assigned to answer questions, we all just answer what we can when we can. So sometimes certain questions don't get answered. So we invite people to ask again. Which is what you are doing. Great. As I remember one question was can everyone have a spiritual name. The answer is yes. Someone else will supply the address and how to request it. I think another question is where to get started. This question is answered when you joined in a letter explaining about our www.kundaliniyoga.org site and our kytraining lessons. There is so much material available there. The first step is to familiarize yourself with this material. Thanks for being persistent! Sat Nam, Gururattan Kaur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
