Guest guest Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 Sat Nam All, I recently completed a 40 day committment with Sat Kriya. I did it for 11 min. each day. That seemed like a long time to me, but I kept it up and felt better for it. One thing I really like about committing to 40 days of a kriya is that it gets me on the mat everyday without fail (because I really don't want to have to start over). During this 40 day run, I actually gave up my daily watching of soap operas (which I have been watching for > 15 years). I didn't even realize that I'd given them up at first. I was just really busy and going alot and didn't seem to have the time for them. Then once I realized that I hadn't been watching them I turned them on one day and found them to not keep my attention anymore. I watched another day and the antennae wouldn't pick them up or they kept cutting out. I just quit watching them altogether. I have always been a little embarrassed that I did watch them, because they're such a phenomenal waste of time, but I thought that I needed them as an escape from the mundane chores of the day. I don't need them and they give me more stress, and I don't really deal with stress all that well anyway. So........Wahe Guru!~ I gave up the stinky old soaps. Sat Kriya works in strange and beautiful ways. Namaste, Sail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked my teacher once which habits Kirtan Kriya should break and she just said 'Which ones have you got?'. It really amazes me we start to fix ourselves but without really understanding how it's just 'Do the yoga and see what it does. I just got up from a great session and near the end of 25 minutes of deep relaxation my mind started to come back and I was just lying there thinking about happiness and how it seemed to have arrived for the moment despite the fact that life is a right old mess right now. How does this stuff work? ! Keith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 Yep, that's very cool. I love it. I feel so much better than I did last year at this time and It's all about the Yoga. I'm a new and improved me and I like me alot better. Now I'm doing Sa-Ta-Na-Ma meditation for 40 days to see what will happen.
