Warrior pose

[Guest guest]

Namaste,

 

When doing Sadhana with my group once a month we have been

concentrating on the third eye but now as a daily practice with another

group, they have told me that I should concentrate and look at the tip

of my nose. Could you kindly explain the difference?. In fact, when

concentrating on my third eye, (as it is a long and early meditation),

I usually get kind of sleeppy. Having tried the one on the tip of my

nose, keeps me awoken but my eyes get a bit tired. Thank you for your

help beforehand.

Sat Nam, either way exerts a subtle and sometimes not so subtle

pressure on the optic nerve. Yogi Bhajan gave us the option of doing

it either way (That's whats so nice about KY, it gives us a lot of

flexibility! )

 

Some days one way works best for me, on another day the other way is

better. Variety, as they say, is the spice of life!

 

The important thing is to meditate and not be so concerned with form

as to distract yourself from the wonderful "process" of sadhana.

 

That said, the eyes on the tip of the nose I believe, is for a

grounding process (memory, self awareness, etc) which while connecting

us to our earthly karmas (and erasing them)is very "here and now". The

third eye position is directly and powerfully elevating. It takes us

out of the material plane and connects us with the cosmic "I"

 

The title of your post was Warrior Pose so I assume you are talking

about the sixth and longest meditation in the daily sadhana routine.

Sitting with the heel on the perenium directly stimulates the third

eye (and the connection to the tenth gate). Some folks get a lot of

energy from doing this posture in this way while concentrating on the

third eye. Sometimes it might be too much. Focusing on the tip of the

nose will moderate the effect but not diminish it. It should give the

practitioner more control if you will over the energy and results of

the meditation.

 

Hope this helps,

God bless you,

Karta Purkh Singh
