Guest guest Posted May 19, 2003 Report Share Posted May 19, 2003 Sat Nam Akkama, The full moon is when your subconscious mind is closest to the surface..so a really good time to meditate or get some healing done...you want all of your energy to be going towards this goal of releasing the subconscious mind...rather than into digestion. Likewise for the new moon...a time of new beginnings...to be able to focus your energy fully on that. If you can't fast it is suggested to eat as Sattvically as possible at those times.

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2003 Report Share Posted May 20, 2003 Well...I can't say what YB suggests...but my personal preference would be the full moon...so that I am doing my best to release the old patterning that would be, the present cause, of the experiences being manifested in my life (new beginnings).....cleaning out the garbage can so that I can start "anew"....fresh! ha ha!

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2003 Report Share Posted May 21, 2003 Excerpt: At the full moon you are naturally accelerated, and you are naturally brought down during a new moon. Your biofeedback moves from full moon to new moon, and the new moon to full moon. That's natural. But if on the eleventh day of the moon, you just live on water and melon, your health will be perfect. If you want to take care of your mind, eat nothing on these three days of the moon: a new moon, a full moon, and the eleventh day of the moon. At the new moon you are at the lowest. On the full moon your glandular system is at the highest. On the eleventh day of the moon you are in balance, in twilight. So if on these three days in the month you can fast on lemon and water, it will help you put. If you feel very cold, then add ginger to it. Each morning these days I take two ounces of ginger, two ounces of lemon, with one spoonful of flaxseed oil. Source: "The Master's Touch" by Yogi Bhajan (page 195) A question: actually right the middle between the moons would be 14-th day?... I asked myself this question, and went to check some resource books on the moon cycles. Here what I found for the 11 day: 11'th day of the moon: "Kundalini", Ekadashi (?J.K.) day. Energy wise this is the strongest day of the moon cycle. Activization of Kundalini-the most primal energy in the human body. This is the energy that build up the human body ( in the past) and continues to develop and perfect it toward the highest spiritual structures. The energy of this day is best for 24 or 36 hours fast. This day is good for "softening" procedures before the liver cleanse. Conceiving a child on this day brings about healthy long living people.

Guest guest Posted May 22, 2003 Report Share Posted May 22, 2003 Jiwan Kaur, Sat Nam: I am from Russia and am familiar with Gennady Malakhov's books. I was just thinking the other day, how great it would be to have them been translated into English. Did you read his books in Russian or English? His books represent the best compilation of best healing and body and mind cleansing practices, all combined together into logical and wonderfully working healing practice. If his books are not translated in English, do you think there is an organization/publisher who would be interested in translation and publishing of his books? I can recommend an interpreting services company here, in US with a very good reputation and record (www.languageconnections.com) Another question: You wrote about fasting on 2 ounces of ginger, 2 ounces of lemon and fullspoon of flaxseed oil. Are you talking about ginger powder, lemon juice and tea spoon of flaxseed oil? Thank you very much, Galina Jiwan <Jiwan wrote: Excerpt: At the full moon you are naturally accelerated, and you are naturally brought down during a new moon.

Guest guest Posted May 23, 2003 Report Share Posted May 23, 2003 Sat Nam, Galina, Those were Yogi Bhajan's words. I understand it when he says fast on lemon and water. I was using so called "master cleanse" (2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice, two tablespoons of pure maple syrup, 1/10 of teaspoon of cayenne pepper for a glass of softly hot water). If I were to add ginger to it, I probably would chop it and boil it and use that hot water for my lemon drink. As far what exactly Yogiji uses, it probably could be minced (crushed very finely) ginger root or blended in a mixer; I am not sure if it is a teaspoon or a tablespoon of flaxseed oil. May be somebody can share a light? I red the book in Russian. As far as translation and publishing goes - it is not a field where I apply my energy. There is an overwhelming volume of recourses in English as well. I had an honor of three years' long project of working on a dictionary. When it got published, I called it "The End of my linguistic karma". On the other hand, Galina, I will love to hear from you about where are you in Russia, and what are the opportunities of practicing Kundalini Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan? Any yearly gatherings? I am really looking forward to hearing from you about it.
