Guest guest Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Hello,I wonder how essential it is to always tune in and tune out. I mean, is it just being dogmatic or being superstitious if you skip it? for the most part I tune in but not really tuning out (your just saying sat nam to end correct?) I know in most things I learn, they teach you to be strict and exact to what you are being taught but that is because they don't want you to get into bad habits. eventually the more experienced you get, the more you can bend the rules and do not necessarily have to adhere so strictly. I can think of when learning to drive, always checking mirrors, etc but when you get experienced enough, you figure out what needs to be adjusted and not everything needs to be and you know what works for you.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Dear Premdev Kaur! I started " best ager-yoga " a while ago in a christian place. Evrybody told me to forget the tuning in and out. I told the classes that I do these " rituals " to come into the right mood, told them that i do it for myself, left it open for them to join or just keep silent, closed my eyes and tuned in. Heard them humming the second time, heard the first of them singing the third time. Now they sing loud. My advice: Keep by yourself, act from the heart, don´t put pressure upon them. they will follow.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Sat Nam, According to Yogi Bhajan--and I watched him tune in silently many times before the altar in the early LA days, it is perfectly okay to silently tune in by yourself. It only takes one person tuning in for the whole class to be covered. I also heard him say that it is the same when we do a blessing with long Sat Nams. Even with everyone chanting, it takes one person truly tuning in to bless the food for everyone. Yogi Bhajan was very specific about not mixing Kundalini Yoga with other yogas. We are in no way to dilute or change the teachings, except posture modifications for movement restricted folks.
