Guest guest Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Dear Japo, The only practice I know of that should help to repair torn stomach muscles of the kriya/hatha system is amoroli though not many can stomache it. You will need to give your abdominal muscles time to heal so I wouldn't practice vitaparina karina mudra or maha bandda or udiana mudra .. Jala neti stimulate agna charka. Many don't recommend the hatha cleansing system. Those people consider it as the yoga for previous evolutions. But I believe on occasions it has its purpose and place even now. Apparently the oldest records of yoga are to be found of statues, of the ancient South American civilizations, showing the practices of mudras and bandas. India or Himalayas rather have been the preserver of the practices where as the yogis could live without political persuasions. You could also try to practice prana vidya by directing the energy to the damaged tissue. Or ask for healings from this group or maybe rather the healing group might be better? Chris Is it what I am thinking of prana vidya the same or similar to what you call scatter fields? I think it is in a way but I am not sure. In many instances it is just the terminology is different. ..

Rig Veda 9th mandala, 113th sukta, 1st mantra On Behalf Of loolooouk Tuesday, 18 July 2006 11:56 PM Hatha Yoga question Hello and all, My kundalini is going well, just a relaxed slow ascension, happening very slowly in the manner of kriya yoga, in which kundalini is supposed to awaken like a queen, very slowly, looking around, falling back to sleep a few times, dozing etc... This has actually been my plan for the last few years since I became aware I was having an awakening, as I didn't want to hurt myself. The weird thing about this is that as I have been going so slowly, when I raise my energy to a point that gets telekinetic, and I can start to feel the presence of entities etc, it actually feels normal! Should I start offering forgiveness to entities? Anyway my question about hatha yoga is, does anyone know any hatha yoga exercises/asanas to correct diastasis recti? I made mine worse on friday by a lot of heavy lifting. Its basically when the fascia between the left and right abdomenal wall halves becomes stretched, its not a hernia, but can become one if not sorted out. apparently its common after pregnancy. My 5 tibetans book still hasnt come in the post!! Does anyone know any good online descriptions of the exercises/bhandas etc? Also, does anyone here practice fasting or any other purification practices? I practice jala neti, which is running salty water through the nose with a kind of teapot-thing, which is really good for balancing the channels in the head. There are lots of yoga purufication practices like this for all parts of the body, just wonder if anyone else practices them? They include swallowing a long cloth to clean the oesophagous, swallowing and vomiting salt water to purify the stomach, staring into a candle for the optic nerve, and various bhandas. Hooray for yoga! How lucky we are to know it! Thanks a lot ancient indian dudes/dudettes! Much love everyone - Japo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Oh Cheers John, thanks for taking an interest. Its not the stomach muscles that are torn, its a stretch in the fascia of the midline between the two abs sides. I shall have to look into these exercises, and do what I can. Hahaha, maybe I should accept my mortality!! About the hatha cleansing systems, shatkarmas are they called? I think they're great, a real boost to the energy, I don't know why people would not recommend them. I believe the bodymind is full of spontaneous natural actions which keep all the internal structures aligned and happy, one of the most obvious being yawning and stretching. I believe that through emotional and behavioural blockages, and injuries of course, these actions are not performed properly... for instance it is rude to belch at the dinner table, and so the whole system is reduced in terms of the amount of energy it can carry. These shatkarmas seem like a good way to counteract the negative effects of these inhibitions. Fascinating about South American yoga! Do you have any links? I'm very grateful 4 your reply, peace and love JApo , " John Mathieson " <jaganath wrote: > > Dear Japo, > The only practice I know of that should help to repair torn stomach > muscles of the kriya/hatha system is amoroli though not many can > stomache it.

Guest guest Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 Dear Loolooouk They are good to practice I haven't practiced all the hatha yoga shatkarmas I have done neti kungul Kriya and shankaprankshalana. They are basically to remove excessive bile, phlegm and wind, shankaprankshalana is drastic and takes about two weeks to fully recover.It is not something you would want to do by your self. Sorry I cannot give you any more info on the South American statues except that you may want to do your own internet search to view any pictures that you might find of them, I don't think that there is any documentation of it. You will notice different ones performing udiana mudra, nasigra mudra and shambavwe mudra, I have seen photographs taken of such and have had one on one verbal commentary. That was a long time ago.
