Friends, there is a famous saying that by practicing continuously, even a fool becomes wise and skilled. All people are fools when it comes to attaining salvation. So, can salvation be attained effortlessly by practicing Kundalini yoga continuously? Let us analyze it in this post.
I was reading the introduction to Purana Purush. It was written in it that how did a householder yogi, known to the author, die? At the last moment, he had focused his life exactly in the middle of the eyebrows. Due to this, there was a strong vibration there. Then he breathed his last there. It was believed that he was liberated. That same Agya Chakra has been called Ram Dwara. In common parlance, the death that people used to mention at Ramdwara was the Agya Chakra itself.
Now the question is that at the last moment, when all the senses become devoid of knowledge, how can one focus the life of the body on the Agya Chakra? I think this happened on its own, through lifelong practice. Science also shows that the blood circulation of the body keeps on shifting from non-essential organs to essential organs. Then this should happen even without yoga. It does happen. Whether one does yoga or not, blood circulation gives importance to the brain. Agya Chakra is one of the main parts of the brain, and is the most effective point in the path of the main nerve of the body. But such vibration is not seen in everyone. It is seen only in Yogis. It seems that blood circulation is automatically controlled by itself. There is no need to be aware or experienced about it. But to make Nadi Sanchar more effective, one has to be aware of it. Meaning, one has to experience it. Although Nadi Sanchar keeps happening at the basic level even without experience. It is due to it that the body remains active. But to raise it to the level of providing liberation, its experience has to be increased. Blood circulation cannot do all the work. It certainly supplies all the necessary substances to the cells for their work, but it is the nerve circulation that motivates the cells to work by using them. Perhaps this nadi circulation is called Prana. If we place material for building a house in front of a person, he will not immediately start building the house. He will have to be motivated to work using that material. This motivating work is done through nadi circulation. You all know that for liberation, it is necessary for all the thoughts suppressed in the mind to manifest in the soul. This is what happens in the witness state. That is why there is a feeling of liberation from it. We certainly experience all the previous suppressed thoughts in the soul in the witness state, but the new thoughts that are suppressed after that are enough to put us in bondage. At the time of death, because all the senses become inactive, the new world cannot be experienced, meaning new thoughts cannot be formed and suppressed in the mind. In such a situation, if all the old suppressed thoughts are experienced in the soul even once due to the great circulation of Prana in the brain, then there should be no doubt about liberation. It is written in the scriptures that if the name of God is taken or he is remembered at the time of death, then one attains salvation. It is also written in many places that this can be done only if there is a lifelong practice. This practice points towards Kundalini Yoga practice. Because the common practice will not be useful at that time. That is because all the senses will be almost dead. How can anything be thought through them. Those almost dead inner senses can come to life only if a strong wave of life force shakes them. Right now because the blood circulation would have shifted from the external senses like eyes, ears etc. to the internal senses like mind and intellect. That blood circulation will also not be so much that it can provide sufficient nutrition to the nervous system there. In such a situation, only the strong wave of life force rising from the Mooladhara can make it active.
Then it is said that whatever a man thinks about in his last moments, he becomes that in his next life. Jad Bharat thought about a deer, so he became a deer. Perhaps this thinking is solitary thinking which happens due to lack of prana. Attachment or credit intelligence remains towards only one mental picture. That is why one gets the same kind of birth. But due to the powerful vibration of prana coming from the Mooladhar, all the mental pictures are felt together and become calm in the soul. Then there is no attachment to any particular picture. This gives liberation. Either do not get attached to anyone or do it with everyone. The result of both is the same, detachment. Either do not remember anyone at the time of death, or remember everyone. The thing is the same. But this does not happen because the ordinary prana will make you remember someone or the other. The kundalini power flowing in the Sushumna is so powerful that it makes you experience everything together. Perhaps this is its basic principle.
But death does not always come so comfortably that it gives the thoughts a chance to merge with the soul. Premature death occurs suddenly. In today’s modern, mechanical, polluted, war-ridden and disease-ridden era, it occurs more often. Earlier it was considered very inauspicious and an obstacle to salvation. It was even believed that the soul would wander without a body for a long time. That is why it was said that one should always be spiritually prepared for death so that even if untimely death comes, one can still get salvation. Such preparation can be done only by daily Kundalini Yoga practice.
When I had corona, I used to feel the transmission of prana through my back, which was probably to fight the disease. In those days I was not even able to do Kundali Yoga. Thoughts were emerging very peacefully and merging into the soul. Perhaps it happens that when the practice of yoga is missed, the accustomed body tries to do that yoga on its own. Perhaps this is why pranayama and yoga are considered liberating. Countless yogis have tested it for centuries.
