[Kundalini Yoga] Re: Sodarshan Chakra Kriya for fall

Hi dear yogis,

I was also scared of Sodarshan Chakra kriya. It seamed like too many things to do in very short time.
But then I heard a recording by Gurucharan S.K. Gurusangat S.K. called Epic Wahe Guru for Sodarshan Chakra Kriya. The music keeps the rhythm it is much easier to do without having to count.

I started with 3 minutes and slowly build it up to 31 minutes.

It was an amazing experience. I felt that the meditation pushed me through my comfort zone during the meditation and in my daily life. I recommend it to anyone who might be going through a life change or needs a direction in their life.

Dear Shaun,

Sat Nam!

In response to your comment --
Yes, please, if you have tips. I have tried so many times to start this one, cause I know it will be good for me. But I get scared and angry at it, and stop after a couple of days.

I know of many other people, including myself, who have had similar experiences with this meditation.

This meditation is not for everyone. There are hundreds of great meditations. Pick another one that you like. There are many that pump the navel that don't result in being angry or provoke negative reactions.

And whoever has the tips please send them to the list. Maybe they can be beneficial.

Blessings,

Guru Rattana :+)

[Kundalini Yoga] Re: Sodarshan Chakra Kriya for fall

First let me say I am not a KY teacher, just a guy that decided to do Sodarshan Chakra Kriya. So whatever your teacher says trumps what I say. I started a 40 day practice and kept it join for 15 months. Stopped and then started again a little over a month ago.

I found a couple of challenges that caused unnecessary delays in my practice. Hopefully these simple simple pointers will save you some time and aggravation.

The first challenge was counting. I tried making audio recordings, counting in my head and nothing flowed. A tip I learned on this newsgroup was to use the left hand to count. Use the left thumb as a pointer. The four fingers become your abacus. First touch the base of the pointer finger, then the base of the middle finger and so on. The next row of four starts with the first joint of the pointer finger and continues on the joints of all the fingers, the next row starts on the second joint and the last row is the tips of the fingers. Each of these 16 points gets 3 pumps and a Wah Hey Guru. 48 pumps. Simple. Elegant. After a couple months I just knew how many 48 was, but it took a while of using the fingers to get there.

The second hard thing is your right hand. The instructions just show a picture of the right hand up and do not mention dropping it. Not only is it hard to hold up your arm and hand for extended periods (I was up to 62 minutes a day for six months) but it is distracting when you are focused on the tip of your nose. Guru Rattana confirmed that it is OK to put your hand down while the breath is held in. This is so much better. You can focus on the subtle effects of the breath, mantra and pumping and not on how much your hand and arm hurt!

Those two are the main tips I would tell anyone. Focusing on the tip of the nose is also hard, and if anyone has ideas on this please share. Mostly I just pushed through.

The last tip, and I know we all have busy lives and this is hard, but if you can take a little still time after SDK I think you will probably find great value in the stillness. Give the energy a chance to marinate.

During these longer dark nights is a great time to start this practice.

Sat Nam,

Tom

Re: [Kundalini Yoga] Areas Bhaee variation for finding lost things

Sat Nam!

The complete mantra to find lost things is
��

Guru Amar Guru Siri Sat

Kala yuga raja pata

Raj yog takata

Dian Guru Ram Das

Ardas payee amar das guru

Amar das guru ardas payee

Ram das guru

Sa chee sayee

If you believe you only need the first part and it works for you, that is fine.
But just in case here is the whole thing.
It really does work! I use it all the time instead of looking. Saves time :+)

Blessings,

Guru Rattana :+)
