Thank you tom for suggesting this.
Inspired by your post I have tried it yesterday for 22 minutes and found it extremely valuable.
This meditation obviously stimulates the gonads into producing more hormones. I could feel the ovaries slightly pulsing afterwards.
And today when I was sunbathing, after the high of feeling the kick of vitamin D being produced, I felt very clearly it was swiftly changed into sexual hormones.
And mind you I am way past menopause.

Indra is the Master of the Indriyas (the senses), which are related to the many kinds of light. Indradhanush is the bow of Indra, the rainbow of many colours. The coloured arrows of Indra rule the senses.

Sat Nam and may you be covered with Indra's eyes!

[Kundalini Yoga] Re: Motivation waning

 

Hi,
I have the opposite problem. When I am most distressed, I find it hardest to practice.

However, to your question -- I am a person of no faith, as far as god.
My thinking is that discipline is the essence of kundalini yoga.
So the teaching/learning takes place in that moment when we decide to do or not to do yoga.

And each time, we have to decide.
I read about a yogi who has been doing Sadhana every morning for 20 years, never missed a day, and he said, every morning he still has the urge to take a day off, and he has to exercise will to do his yoga.

regards,
kartar kaur

[Kundalini Yoga] Re: my intro as a new member of the list

 

Hi,
welcome to the list. And for sharing yr experience with kundalini.

for me kundalini yoga is a lifelong pursuit. and it consists in changing/improving my attitude toward life, my experience of life. In searching for deeper meaning. In being healthy - physically and mentally.

For those who practice a lot of Kun Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan, often it becomes a whole-life experience, influencing every facet of our lives.

I'm not saying this at all to negate your experience, just to say there are many ways to experience Kundalini Yoga.

regards,
Kartar Kaur

Re: [Kundalini Yoga] Sodarshan Chakra Kriya

 

That's an interesting answer, which I really enjoy and applaud. (I was sure
someone would say loosing sexual desire is a good thing.)
I appreciate the no-nonsense style!

Wahaguru!

[Kundalini Yoga] Re: Sodarshan Chakra Kriya

 

Coincidence does not prove causality. but in my recent experience I find the exact opposite with "Eyes of Indra" meditation.
I am only 10 days or so into a 40 day practice (just 21 minutes, about a 1/2 hour with invocation and silence after) and I find consistently that everything seems more vivid after.
For example a simple plate of food looks perfectly balanced, like a wonderful still life painting by a great master. This extends to all senses and includes better sex and a stronger sex drive.

Any one else doing Eyes of Indra?

Sat Nam,

-tom

re:
Thu Jul 18, 2013 11:33 am (PDT) . Posted by:"Guru Rattana" gururattanaSat Nam,

That is an interesting question. I am wondering if anyone else has had
negative effects from Sodarshan Chakra Kriya? This is the only one that
I have experienced negative effect both in my personal practice and in a
class setting.
There are plenty of other great meditations to choose from.

Blessings,

Guru Rattana :+)

Hey Chris,

Just curious: When you were doing Sodarshan Chakra Kriya did you find your sex desire diminished? I found this to be an unexpected side effect at 31 and 62 minutes and I wonder how common it is (At least one other person on this forum had that experience)

[Kundalini Yoga] my intro as a new member of the list

Just joined. Here's my intro:

It was only after I'd written several drafts of a novel about kundalini
that I learned the word and what it meant and saw that this was what I'd
been writing about. Later, I reread a journal I'd kept a winter in India
20 years ago and discovered by chance that I'd had a kundalini experience.
Here's what I found, a sensation I couldn't explain:

"It's like an electric pulse, made of molten color, the brilliance of all
the silk saris at once; and it pushes past my fatigue and travels along the
wire that hooks together body and soul. Jet-lagged and short of sleep
though I am, that jolt keeps pushing through. I welcome it. It's somehow
part of what I've come here for."

I live near Chapel Hill, NC, in a log house in the woods next to a pond,
with my psychologist husband. I write novels about spirituality, and I'm
a gardener and a kayaker.

Re: [Kundalini Yoga] Re: Motivation waning

 

Hi Jane,
I seem so resistent to structure that I can't even practice for 30min at a set date each week. There is a place that  teaches it but I bought all these books on KY and it would be so much cheaper if I could get my act together and practice. Thanks for the help.

Remember that KY is best practiced in community and its effects are magnified by regular classes with others. Although your sadhana practice may be solitary, it is important to get to a yoga center regularly and mix with the "company of saints" on a regular basis. Otherwise the diet, the tea, the cold showers, and the early rising can seem too harsh. Personally I believe that you somehow find the right practice for your current stage of life. Sometimes you need to practice for 20 minutes at 5pm because 2 hours at 4:00 am leaves you too exhausted to get through the day. Just remember to love and have compassion for yourself first. That way whatever your practice is or becomes you are reminded how fortunate you are to have the time and space to practice yoga and evolve in increments towards your true self.
Love and LIght
Jane Bentley
