cold eyes effect

[Guest guest]

Hellos to all. I'm new to the group, been watching from the shadows. I'm

pretty exprienced in pranayama and other such practices. I have been working

with the Kritin Kriya (ms?).. the Sa Ta Na Ma technique. I have noticed a very

peculiar effect of this practice. After I am finished, and up doing my daily

thing, I notice a cold sensation in my eyes/eyelids. It feels like there is a

gentle breeze blowing right on my eyes. It is a refreshing feeling, very

pleasant. Does anyone else experience this?

 

Also, I was curious if fellow practitioners do pranayama whilst working the

fingers. I am trained to do pranayama with most any other practice, and I find

that the these two go very well together. Each sound is about one second, so I

use the chanting in place of counting the breath (I do a 20s inhale, 20s exhale

and 10s hold). After several breaths, the breathing becomes automatic and I can

really focus on the finger/mental work. Of course, doing the practice in the

way makes it impossible to chant the sounds audibly, thus I can only chant

internally. I have not attempted the practice in the method described in the

teachings (the 31 minute method), and I was wondering if there really is any

reason to stick to these time increments. And is there any effect from doing

the Normal voice/whisper/silent sequence? Things seem to be working in the

method I am applying, with my pranayama.

Hi Marzipan,

 

Regarding "Cold Eyes". This just may be a release within your

sympathetic nervous system. Eyes and sight regulate sympathetic. It

could also be a clearing out or balancing of Pitta or Fire. When we are

in "Doing" mode, we are in the sympathetic. When we relax and hearing,

we are coming from the para-sympathetic. Para-sympathetic regulates the

sympathetic. Gong is real good for the para-sympathetic.

Sounds like you're doing okay from here.

Regarding Normal voice/whisper/silent sequence, I wouldn't modify it. It

is perfect in that it progresses from the conscious mind and the world

of "Doing", to the whisper language of Lovers and intimacy, and then to

the the deep listening, and receptive levels of the sub/unconcious mind.

This is real and not just symbolic. This is one of the more integrating

and self clearing Kriyas.

Gotta run,

Dharam Singh

 

P.S. Do you like almonds?
