Can Beginners have health Problems due to Ky

[Guest guest]

GO PATS!

 

Sat Nam Soniya,

The heat you are experiencing is Tapa. Tapa is defined as transformative

fire. Heat, is general, is a release of tension. You are simply

moving forward through karmas and burning them off. Don't worry, just feel.

Don't try to understand too much. Just feel and breathe and smile. Be

in your heart. Beginners and old timers feel this. The only difference is

experience gives you is a confidence and acceptance of this process.

One often feels tired when the old patterns of coping give way to a more

connected sense of self. Catching a cold is not unusual. Drink lots

of water! Again, this is an opportunity to learn a trust of your deeper self.

Do one minute breath for five to eleven minutes a day at the end

of your routine (15-20 secs inhale, 15-20 secs suspend breath, 15-20 secs

exhale). Feel what comes up, embrace it with your attention and breath.

Keep a gentle focus at the tip of your nose. Let go of any tension with this

flow. Allow your emotions to release.

As Swami Rama says " This focusing of attention follows a systematic path from

the most external parts of one’s personality, the body and senses,

to the innermost, the mind itself. By treading the path regularly, the way

becomes familiar and the mind is calmed and purified. Then the inner

light of the Self begins to shine spontaneously—and life becomes a poem and a

song."

 

As my first Teacher (a Shoshone Shaman) said "pay attention to the purification"

 

You can also do Kirtan Kriya ( kundalini yogakyt14.html) at this

time. There are a number of meditations you can do.

Let your space expand

That's all for now.

Dharam
