organizing sadhana

[Guest guest]

shalom--

 

i'm hoping someone out there can help me organize my sadhana. my

problem is that there's so much i want to do! i want to begin an

11-day sadhana of the " magnetic field and heart center " kriya, as well

as sat kriya, as well as meditation for self-animosity--but i don't

want to overwhelm myself, or add to much on. would you recommend

beginning with sat kriya perhaps, and then adding something on, or is

it okay to take on two meditations at the same time?

 

i am currently devoting one hour in the morning to sadhana, which is

enough time for a cold shower, a kriya and a short meditation, and

have found that a) waking up any early almost never happens and b)

night-time meditations tend to get pushed aside, so i'm always

starting my count over.

 

i am drawn to the meditation for self animosity, whereas sat kriya is

something that i feel is very powerful, and a critical building block

for future practice. any advice on how to choose meditations, design a

sadhana, wake up 30 minutes earlier, or anything else is very welcomed.

 

sat nam, shalom shalom--

Jessie,

 

Take this on the bottom rung of advice- I am at this 1 year. And can

say I too started out like you. So much to do!! At night I read

through the various meditations and there are 1,000's to choose from.

 

However: Set the alarm 30 min earlier and when your wake thank god or

whomever you do, for giving you life today. Then without further

thought get up and hit the shower

 

In one sense, the fact that you take cold showers puts your

committment at the front of the line. I hear lectures by Yogi Bhajan

scolding everyone for not taking cold showers.

 

As for the order of the practice?

 

Maybe mix it up for a few days and then stick to the 11 day sadhana

based on those results?

 

Or take the advice of the senior people here and base your decision on

youy intuition based on that advice. ?

 

In Guru Rattana's on line lessons she says YB spent many years giving

lower triangle sets before working on higher chakra ones. Because if

you are stable and established in the lower triangle the heart center

and third eye can open.

 

I did many sets with neat affects but now also do Sat Kriya daily. It

is very helpful. I think in one KY book the author says if she had to

choose one forever it would be sat kriya.

 

Be well, sat nam! Shalom lechha,
