kundalini energy

[Guest guest]

Sat Nam Carla!

Kundalini Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan is different than what you may have

read. There are other yogas entitled Kundalini Yoga that are more forceful

using strong breathing techniques, transmissional teaching, Shakipat and strong

bandhas and never suggest you practice without a teacher. Yogiji stressed (es)

the importance of following each kriya precisely as given, not using your ego

to make up a technique or create a new pattern of practice within the kriya,

tuning in and tuning out, and not mixing Kundalini Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan

with any other form of yoga. The Shakti is indeed mighty and powerful and

needs to be respected in these ways as you practice this type of yoga. Yet all

forms of Yoga are for the same ultimate goal; to raise Kundalini and reach

Samadhi. It is your karma whether that happens in this lifetime or not so there are

other things going on with raising that awareness. The body/mind, nervous

system need to be systematically strengthened, blocks released and dissolved with

the practice so that the power moves through the central channel or sushumna.

Raising the Kundalini is only the first part! ha ha! Then you integrate and

bring it back into the energy centers. You do that with the practice. Practice

everyday even if it's just 3 minutes of Sat Kriya or BOF. This Kundalini Yoga

that Yogi Bhajan taught is safe when the teachings are kept pure.
