Thanks Oriol. That is a good piece. the phrase "contracting your anus

with

awareness can be the first step on a trip toward contacting your cosmic

identity" resonates with my understanding and practice. A very large

aspect of Yoga is the withdrawal of the senses and attention we give to

things external. The constant draw on our energy for reasons that relate

to everything from our jobs (survival) to the things we lust after that

we need in order to feel complete is a tremendous drain. It makes us old

way before our time and wrecks our minds and capacity to be truly alive.

Applying the lock to both the anus and sexual organ and then blending

that with the deep foundation of the navel is the beginning of

re-orienting our selves. This can be scary because it often means making

that 6 inch leap from the third Chakra to the fourth Chakra.....it means

pulling back from all the control and being trusting, being alone....but

not lonely.

Dharam

P.S. the pull at need not be a strong enough draw to constrict the

breath. Work it in with the the inhalation and the exhalation. Go to

kundalini yogabhandas.html for more info
