Get on
Hands & Knees. Extend the left
leg up and back at a 45 degree angle. Keep the head up. Breath of Fire
for 2 minutes. Reverse legs and repeat.
-
Sit Down
With Your Legs Extended Out in Front.
Stretch both legs out in front 12 to 18 inches apart. Grasp the toes (if
you can) with the hands. Begin bouncing up and down from the base of the
spine, gently pulling with the arms and loosening up. (If you can’t grasp
your toes, grasp whatever you can reach—your thighs, your knees, your
calves--while still keeping your spine straight.) Increase the intensity
of the movement and of the breath until you are touching the third eye to
the floor each time, letting your neck loose so your head bounces right up
each time. (If you cannot touch your third eye to the floor, then imagine
you are doing so.) Inhale “WHA-HAY,” exhale “GU-RU,” meditating on a
glowing field of energy building up around your body. Continue for 7 ½
minutes, optimum time, 15 minutes.
-
Lie on
Your Back in Corpse Pose. Lie
back, relax, meditate on “SAT,” inhaling and concentrating at the base of
the spine. Exhale “NAM,” projecting from the third eye, feeling the
magnetic field grow stronger.
-
Bridge
Pose. Sitting down, raise the
buttocks up high, pressing the navel point into the sky. Let the head
fall back, arms straight. Breath of Fire for 3 minutes. Inhale, hold,
close the rectum and spiral the pranas up the spine out the top of the
head. Exhale, come down, sit in Easy Pose with your hands in Gyan
Mudra.
-
Sit in
Easy Pose. Hands in Gyan
Mudra. Sitali Pranayam (Beak Breath). Roll the tongue into a “U”
with the tip just outside your lips. (If you can’t roll your tongue, then
just extend the tip of your tongue outside your lips, resting on the lower
lip.) Inhale deeply and powerfully through the mouth, making a hissing,
whistling sound—inhale more in little breaths, then exhale through the
nose. Continue for ten minutes. There will be a pressure build-up in the
ears, you will want to stop, but keep up. (This is a soothing breath. If
ever an exercise brings more energy than a person can handle, this will
smooth it out!)
-
Still in
Easy Pose. Bring the palms
together at the mind nerve, thumbs pressing the sternum, other fingers
extended out together at 60 degrees. Look with open eyes down past the
tip of the nose at the ends of your middle fingers. Breathe long and deep
and chant:
AAD GURAY NAMAY
(I bow to the primal wisdom, I bow)
JUGAD GURAY NAMAY
(to the wisdom which has prevailed throughout history, I bow)
SAT GURAY NAMAY
(to the true teacher, true even now, I bow)
SIRI GURU DEVAY NAMAY
(to the great transparent Teacher, present everywhere, I bow.).
Comments:
This kriya is for the eighth center, not generally recognized in yoga
texts. Kundalini Yoga works on eight centers—the seven chakras and the one
engulfing aura / electromagnetic field / eighth center. Lots of Kundalini
Yoga masters have been taught about the chakras. They have not been taught
about the arc line (Sixth Body) and the aura / eighth center. Therefore the
science is not complete with them. That is why for centuries it has been
told that Kundalini Yoga should not be taught because it is dangerous. It
is only dangerous if you open up your chakras without the controlling
connection of the aura and the arc line. (There are ten bodies and they all
have to be in balance.)
Since the whole universe is defined by
patterns of magnetic fields, the magnetic field of the individual is
important. When this field is strong and clear, it can be allowed to
resonate in harmony with the environment, thus bringing physical health,
mental peace and spiritual communion to the individual.
Exercise 5, Sitali
Pranayam (Beak Breath), gives strength, power and vitality. (Initially,
the tongue may taste bitter, but it will eventually become sweet.) It can
be done by itself for 3 minutes, or 26 times in the morning and 26 times in
the evening. 108 repetitions is a deep meditation and a powerful healer for
the body and digestive system. |
