What is Kundalini Yoga?

Through the ages, in every civilization, there is a hidden away, a secret technology from the discovery that the individual final potentially accessible. Is a technique that is able to elevate, inspire and awaken own greatness of the individual. This quantity is in us, and the technology to do so is Kundalini Yoga.

As an enthusiastic teacher of Kundalini Yoga, I've always wondered: "What is it? Is it as Hatha Yoga or Ashtanga Yoga? Is it dynamic or static? Are meditation and breathing techniques? "My answer is always the same: all these things and much more.

Yogi Bhajan, Master of Kundalini Yoga, who now lives in New Mexico, said that there are 22 main types of yoga, each expressing a facet of the whole. A good way to understand is that any form of yoga is like the facet of a diamond. The diamond itself is Kundalini Yoga, the mother of all yogas.

Kundalini Yoga is the most inclusive of all yoga practices as it includes all aspects of yoga in her teaching. This practice, more than 8.4 million kriya (completed sequences, or sets). They consist of Kriya asana (postures), pranayama (breathing exercises), mantras (sound), mudras (hand gestures), bandha (body locks) and meditation.

Kriya is a mix of dynamic and static postures that make a perfect set of energy, feelings show and played the instrument of the body. In ancient texts it is said that Kundalini yoga is the fastest way to transform the individual who wants to create. There is a certain depth, comprehensiveness and speed inherent in Kundalini Yoga.

Kundalini Yoga is a legacy. It is interpreted as an exact science by masters in communication with the infinite, straight from the soul. This practice has been experienced and enlightened through for thousands of years. They say that Christ, Buddha and Moses practiced Kundalini Yoga.

The ancients often taught and transmitted through the line of kings. This master Kundalini Yoga are not specific or personal to judge knowledge. It was previously thought that lessons were delivered by a line of authentic Raj (Royal) Yogi. Kundalini Yoga knowledge has been passed through meditation and altered states. It is this practice that took place in the tradition of the monarchy. We understand that the first release of Kundalini Yoga is passed to the Hindu god Shiva, who in turn gave the knowledge to his wife Parvarti. The Bhagavad Gita, we understand that Lord Krishna was a guardian of doctrine, which were then transferred to King Janaka, who was an early Raj Yogi and master of Kundalini Yoga. This has been passed through the line of Guru Ram Das, a guru of the Sikhs through the subtle realms. Guru Ram Das was given the high throne of Raja Yoga, known as Takhat. The word Takhat literally means "high throne" and is not specific to an exclusive form of yoga, there Takhat many others. Meant he was the technology to go with his blessing to all who came. It was by Guru Ram Das that the doctrine has been given to Yogi Bhajan. In 1969, Yogi Bhajan Kundalini Yoga for the United States against the wishes of his colleagues. Hitherto secret he had always been high and was never used in public.

Since Kundalini Yoga has become so popular in the United States, Kundalini Research Institute (KRI) was developed. It was established to examine, promote, produce and maintain the teachings of Yogi Bhajan, as they went.

There is much confusion surrounding kundalini and Kundalini Yoga. Some experts believe that the most potent and powerful to change consciousness, while others warn against the practice, or sailing across the education system in secrecy. But how something as essential to consciousness as kundalini fear? Some people are worried about the energy of Kundalini, but the teaching of Yogi Bhajan have kidnapped numerous false and myths surrounding kundalini and explicit science courses have techniques that can be thoroughly tested. Kundalini Yoga is also known as yoga "of consciousness. Awareness leads to understanding and understanding gives way to acceptance. If you can accept your limitations disappear. All your worries, and the self-deprecation will cease to exist. Instead, abundance, hope and wisdom of your true value. Kundalini Yoga is more than a series of physical exercises. To actually practiced with respect and reverence, he will change your life.

There is only one way you can practice Kundalini Yoga. It is very specific and clearly defined and carried out, as it was given without any modifications. The path you can go to many places, if you want enlightenment or parts of yourself that are outdated and do not reflect the person you want to distribute. Kundalini Yoga can also provide an approach for those who have limited time to devote to this practice, but they deserve the fruit of this precious gift. The practice is easily understandable and accessible to beginners of yoga that have decided they need a tool to help balance the daily pressure. Is yoga for the modern man. This practice is our current dilemma: to feel whole and complete, while maintaining our daily life, daily responsibilities. Kundalini Yoga is a sacred technology that is highly needed at this time. This is a direct, powerful and simple.

It is important to understand that Kundalini Yoga is concerned with preparing the body for energy kundalini rise Sushmana (the backbone energy). The Science of Kundalini Yoga is designed to provide you the experience of your highest consciousness by raising your Kundalini. Kundalini is your latent spiritual potential. Through the practice of Kundalini Yoga, this psychic nerve center is awakened, the revelation is the release of your true potential. For this energy safely, body and spirit must be strong and able to cope with this powerful change in consciousness. The practice of Kundalini Yoga is the powerful cleaning of the whole man. Not only the body and mind must be purified, but also the energy aspects of ourselves. Chakras (energy centers) and meridians (energy pathways) should be removed and activated the influx of new energy dynamics to move freely throughout the substance.

Kundalini and chakra work closely interrelated. The Kundalini energy can be described as a snake, coiled in three and half turns, sleeping in the Muladhara (base or root chakra), the densest of all the chakras. But please note that Yogi Bhajan did not support the concept of Kundalini and the serpent, but as the model for the potential of humanity. Kundalini is known as the spiritual nerve, sitting in the base of the spine, ready to awaken. The practice of Kundalini Yoga can be stimulated nerve and begin to be enabled if it breaks the blockade of Muladhara, traveling throughout the Sushmana and piercing each chakra along the way until the crown, which has reached full attained enlightenment.

You do not load with the intention of raising the kundalini to full enlightenment, but such is the goal of all forms of yoga. A more acceptable, softer way to present the enormous potential in you, and shows how this potential can be released. This method is to gently awaken the kundalini energy or the IDA and channels that integrate Pingala Sushmana around the rudder, each time you board a Kriya Kundalini. The general pattern of a kundalini kriya is to awaken and develop pranic energy. This is then transported to the areas you wish to work. For example, if your digestive system to work together to help a decision or an emotional state is shocking that you might be useful. With energy at a particular chakra, organ, or a problem in your life, this blockade is lifted and your back in balance. The negative effects are harmful to you.

Over 8.4 million kriya, all designed to manage daily, daily challenges we face. Are kriya for the physical aspects, such as digestion, circulation, immune system (disease resistance), pain in lower back, glandular disorders, menopause and sexual problems. There are also kriya for the mind to clear the confusion, addiction, haunts the thoughts and blocks it. In addition, there kriyas balance the emotions the feelings of ecstasy, anxiety and paranoia to remove, for achieving peace and the empowerment of the ability to accept and forgive all aspects of your life achieve.

Meditation is also a very important practice. This makes the body and mind to handle the travel of Kriya. Energy travels along a certain route, arousal, removal and moving your body energy. The process of meditation is a lesson in inner awareness. Sometimes, meditation, breathing technique to allow the mind to calm down when you get inside the realm of feelings and emotions. If this happens, you can observe your thoughts as they come and go. This is the beginning of the practice known as "The Watcher. It is through this method you master the mind.

Other times there will be a mantra to accompany the meditation. A mantra is always equipped with a vibration coded sound that crosses the mind and begins to balance the areas that need attention. When there is a mantra, you can find yourself immersed in the sound. Is the most powerful of Kundalini Yoga. Breaks word mantra in man, which means "mind" and tra, which "shake". Mantra thus means "trembling of the spirit. This wonderful technique moves many traits and behaviors that our suffering. The chapter on Mantra (see page 51), I'll explain exactly how science works sound.

I conclude this chapter by saying that you never forecast kundalini class. It is always full of surprises, since many changes will take each person is different. There have been times in my classes where there is laughter, which is always great fun and I encourage it actively. Yoga is often synonymous with serious, calm and solemn, but not always the case. Laughter is constant in my classes. It is an explosion of happiness. This usually occurs when a painful emotion or memory has been released. It is also common to find themselves so immersed in the Kriya breathing and you find tears the surface of your cheeks. You do not really cry, but tears are silent. It's always taking a very keen awareness of the many changes that occur in you.

If you encounter this problem, you will notice that harmony and balance are restored to you, and you will feel an endless supply of energy and happiness. In this experiment, even for a brief moment of your life will not be the same. The interior light is on, shining through you and others will surely attract you. You will become a beacon for humanity, a touchstone of truth, and the living reality of who we really are.

For anyone who is preparing for the path of the kundalini, I wish you great trip. May your path you will discover many examples of divinity around you at any given time. Can you realize the ultimate truth that only love can be free Fri, my friend, because it is your birthright.
