Guest guest Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 While it is easy to understand how the Kundalini practice elevates our vibrations during the actual practice itself, what techniques or ideas do you use throughout the day to stay in a positive state of mind, avoid negativity, and stay connected to the feelings generated during the morning sets and meditation? Does the morning practice carry us through our day? Do we simply try to stay mindful of our thoughts throughout the day? Or is there a technique or plan to keep the momentum while we are going about our daily tasks? Thanks; Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 14, 2005 Report Share Posted June 14, 2005 I find chanting silently during the day helps keep my energy up and away from negativity. Har, Har, Har or I just make them up.

Guest guest Posted June 14, 2005 Report Share Posted June 14, 2005 Jeff welcome. You pose good questions. I have found listening to mantra or other inspirational music helps. I often find myself chanting at work where my greatest test of neutral mind and living from the heart seem to stem. Also something as simple as remembering to breathe, long deep breathing and at times a few minutes of breath of fire can remind me of my connection to my higher power. Taking a few minutes to pray or meditate during the course of the day can become a matter of habit. Sat Nam. Joan Richards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 Sat Nam, Just to add to what has already been expressed on this topic... When you have a particular experience of consciousness during meditation....first be aware that you are having it (witness it)......then afterwards, while the experience is still fresh, set an intention to experience it throughout your day. For instance if somebody struggles with anger throughout their day...then their intention could be something like.... "I skillfully transform the energy of anger, back to it's original love nature, throughout my day". Remember, intention makes the world go round...what you intend will happen. But just be aware that with each intetion that you set, you will be shown or experience, what ever it is, that functions as an obstacle in your consciousness, towards you recieving what it is that you are asking for. So if somebody is trying to dissolve anger in their life....they will experience much anger, more than likely...in the process of learning how to transform it. Realize that under all of the emotional tension of anger (or any emotional tension)...is where wisdom lies. So as humans we access wisdom through the processing of emotional tension. Until of course you are at such a state where you are able to process emotion on the spot(rather than packing it away for a later date to deal with)..... then you live in a state of constant connection with wisdom, by being masterful at the process of transforming emotional tension. And throughout your day, when you are hit with more than you feel you are capable of being nuetral with and simply witnessing.....remember to call for help! Guru Ram Das is a wonderful 9-1-1 (chant the Guru Ram Das mantra in your head if you have to...) .....or simply say, "God, or universe, great spirit (whatever name you relate to) take this negativity from me...I feel helpless and unskilful in this moment, but my intention is to respond with wisdom, rather than from my tension....so take this negativity from me and return it to me as feelings, thoughts and images... of positivity and love." And take a moment to envision what it is that you would like to be experiencing instead. This technique, is part of a process using prayer /intention, that my teacher Seva Simran, has taught to me over the last three years...through different classes and workshops that I have taken with him and it is extremely effective in constantly transforming and refining your consciousness throughout your day. I hope that is helpful. All Light, Sat Sangeet Kaur AB, Canada Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
