Kundalini Yoga in Shrimad Bhagwat Gita

Sung by Shrikrishna

Friends, a friend started sending me online Geeta on WhatsApp a few days ago. One shloka is sent daily in the morning and one in the evening. I found a lot of material in it which was related to Kundalini and Advaita. There are some points about which there also seems to be confusion in the society. By the way, I have received the rites of Geeta from my childhood. My grandfather’s name used to start with Geeta, and he was very fond of Geeta. I too had read the detailed commentary on the Gita. But there is a lot of difference between reading and heeding.

Description of Tantric Kundalini Yoga in the 29th verse of fourth chapter of Gita

💐भागवत गीता अध्याय-4💐अपाने जुह्वति प्राणं प्राणेऽपानं तथापरे। प्राणापानगती रुद्ध्वा प्राणायामपरायणाः॥४-२९॥

Some offer prana (incoming breath) in apana (outgoing breath) and others apana in prana. Some others who practice Pranayama (restraint of breath) stop the flow of prana and apana – ॥29॥

The first line of this shloka literally means that some yogis perform havan or sacrifice of prana vayu in apana vayu or air, means they burn prana into apana. Prana Vayu prevails above the chest in the body. Apan Vayu pervades the areas of the Swadhisthana Chakra and Muladhara Chakra. When meditation is done together on the agya chakra, the swadisthana chakra and the mooladhara chakra, then the prana and the apana are gathered together on the swadhisthana chakra. This causes the Kundalini to shine on the Swadhisthana Chakra. In yoga, at place of Swadhisthan, Manipur Chakra is also kept. Then prana and apana are burned on the samana air. Even then, it is called a offering of prana in apana, because apana is closer to naval than prana. Samana air prevails in naval area. Many times meditation of the single chakra, sahasrara or ajna chakra is done. Then a slight meditation is turned to the Swadhisthana Chakra or Muladhara Chakra. This brings down the prana from these top two chakras, and it becomes the part of apana. In a way, apana eats prana, just as fire consumes wood or other ingredients of yajna. That is why the offering of prana in apana is written here. Rajyogi type people do this offering more to get well worldly grounding for they have plenty of energy in top chakras due to their thinking nature.

The second line of this verse literally means that some other people perform burning of apana into prana fire. When the Ajna Chakra, the Anahata Chakra and the Mooladhara or Swadhisthana Chakra are meditated together, then the prana (upper air) and the apana (lower air) gather on the Anahata Chakra. Because there is prana on the Anahata Chakra along with the ajna Chakra, that is why it is said that the apana is poured on to prana fire to burn it. In this too many times only two chakras are meditated. At first mooladhara or swadhisthana chakra is meditated upon. Then a slight meditation is diverted towards the Sahasrara or ajna cycle. With this, the apana climbs up from the bottom chakras through backbone channel and joins the prana. It is written as the offering of apana in prana. Keep in mind that it’s Kundalini that’s felt in the form of Prana or Apana. Tantric type well ground people do this type of offering more for they have plenty of energy at bottom chakras. They get mental energy necessary for kundalini activation and awakening with this.

The word by word meaning in the third and fourth line is that people who do pranayama or breathing exercises do this (havan or prana yajna) by stopping the movement of prana and apana, meaning stopping the inbreathing and out breathing respectively. It is most important in yoga. Actually, it’s the real or main Yoga. Prana-apana union is the heart of Yoga. Other activities are only its supportive means. While breathing in, the prana goes up through the spine. Kundalini also accompany it. Expiration or out breathing means that while exhaling, Prana descends through the front channel, which means that it reinforces apana. With this the Kundalini also comes down. Then again it rises up through the rear channel with inbreathing. This cycle goes on. Due to this, Kundalini is not able to remain stable at one place, due to which it is not properly meditated. We cannot stop prana, because it is a subtle energy flowing in the channels. Yes, we can stop pranavayu or breath, to which prana is connected. In this way, breath acts as a handle for prana. When the breath is stabilized by holding the breath, then we can give prana or kundalini a carefully controlled motion. While breathing, we cannot control prana or kundalini much with meditation, because the breath keeps making it dance here and there. Prana and Kundalini climb up through the channel of the back with the breath going in, and with the breath going out, they descend through the front channel. By stopping the breath, both prana and kundalini stop. When the Kundalini stops, the mind also becomes static, because Kundalini is an experimental part of the mind. We cannot control the whole mind together, that’s why an experimental piece or sample piece of it is taken in the form of Kundalini. For this reason, after Kundalini Yoga, one feels joy with stability and peace of mind. Prana is one and same everywhere in body. For the sake of explaining according to the place of activity, it has been divided into different parts, which is prana, apana etc. By holding the breath to interpose Prana and Apana on a Chakra, Imagine on Manipur Chakra, the main meditative focus is kept on the Manipur Chakra and also the Slant or minor Meditative mind is placed on the ajna Chakra and Muladhara chakra. Due to this, the life force or prana between ajna chakra and manipura chakra come down and the apana situated below the manipura chakra come up and both clash with each other on the Manipur Chakra. This exposes the Kundalini there. On each chakra, both of the prana and apana are drawn once by exhaling and holding breath there, and once by inhaling and holding breath there. It should be kept in mind that the breath should not be held for more than one’s easily tolerable point of time. Breaking one’s tolerance limit can cause brain damage.

Keeping hands on the middle chakra helps in focusing. Similarly, while sitting in Siddhasana, one feels a sense of pressure on the base chakra by the heel of one foot, and on the Swadhisthana Chakra with the other foot. This sensation also helps in meditation of the chakra. But remember that full Siddhasana sometimes causes knee pain, especially in the knee of the upper leg whose heels touch the swadisthana chakra. Therefore, Ardha or half Siddhasana should be applied in such condition. In this, only the heel of one leg touches the Muladhara Chakra. The second leg rests comfortably on the ground, not just above the first leg. Long-term neglect of knee pain also increases their chances of worsening.

Formulation of Raja Yoga in the 30th verse of the fourth chapter of the Gita

💐भागवत गीता अध्याय-4💐
अपरे नियताहाराः प्राणान्प्राणेषु जुह्वति। सर्वेऽप्येते यज्ञविदोयज्ञक्षपितकल्मषाः॥४-३०॥
taking regulated food, offer (vital airs) prana in prana. All these seekers are knowers of (Yagya) sacrifice and destroy their sins by performing it. ॥30॥

This shloka literally means that people with regular dieting habits offer or sacrifice pranas in to pranas. All these seekers are going to destroy sins and know yajnas of knowledge. Yogis with regular dieting habits and satvic lifestyle are Rajyogis. These are not having tantric and open lifestyle so these do not take shelter of the Panchamakaras or 5Ms. Therefore, the chakras located in the lower parts of their body are weak, due to lack of prana or apana. They meditate on the Kundalini in the chakras of the upper part of body, starting from the brain up to the heart chakra. They mainly form a triangle of meditation. One point of that triangle is the Sahasrara Chakra, the second point is the front ajna chakra, and the third point is the rear ajna chakra. This involves direct or main meditative focus on one point, especially on the front ajna, and slant or secondary meditation focus on the other two chakras. The points can also be interchanged. Similarly, triangle can also be formed by taking other chakras. The prana from all these three points of triangle gather at that point where main meditative focus is maintained and Kundalini starts glowing there. The point of the top in these triangles is mostly the Sahasrara Chakra. Actually, triangle is made to centralize or concentrate the prana on its lines from nearby areas all-around. One can’t meditate large area together. For further concentration of prana situated on triangle, its three conical points are chosen. Prana on these three points is further concentrated on to single point through keeping main meditative focus on it. In the last, we get highly concentrated prana on that single point along with Kundalini there. Similarly, the same happens with the straight line, imagine a line connecting Muladhara, Manipur and ajna chakra points. The prana of the body around line is centered on the line through little meditation. Then the prana of the line is centered on these three connected chakra points. Then the prana of all the three points is gathered on that chakra point, on which the main meditative focus is kept. Secondary or oblique meditative focus is put on both other points. It’s a wonderful spiritual psychology.

Prana-apana union in Christianity

The living Jesus answered and said : “Blessed is the man who has known these things. He has brought heaven down, he has lifted the earth and has sent it to heaven, and he has become the Midst for it is nothing.” I suppose the heaven is Prana that’s brought down as described above. Similarly, earth is Apana that’s lifted up. Midst is the union of both. Nothing produced there is kundalini produced along with mental stasis that comes accompanied with nonduality. Nonduality with mental stasis is equivalent to nothing. Prana is called heaven because it resides in the upper chakras of the body, and the upper chakras have the same nature as the heavenly realms, and are also depicted so in many places. Likewise, Earth is called Apana because apana pervades the lower chakras of the body, especially the base chakra. These lower chakras are also referred to as substandard or hellish realms. Muladhara is given the metaphor of the earth, because by its meditation man is well connected to the ground or physical dimension, that is, it provides man with a base. That is why its name is made by adding the words root (mool) and base (adhar). The earth also provides the greatest base for living and standing.

The Gaian Mysteries Of Gnosis – The Bruce Codex

Kundalini is the main motive of biological evolution

Friends, I said in a previous post that I experienced Kundalini on different chakras according to level of consciousness of my mind. When there was more consciousness, the Kundalini came on the upper chakras, and when there was less consciousness, it came on the lower chakras. In fact the level of consciousness is measured by a pure mind, not by a combined mind with external senses. With the help of external senses, all people and many other creatures are full of consciousness. External senses do not remain after death. At that time only the subtle consciousness of pure mind comes into use. When looking at something with eyes, there is a flood of consciousness in the mind. That consciousness is born by the strength of the eyes, not by the strength of the mind. Similarly, in the case of other external senses, one should also understand. As the capacity of the mind increases from within to reveal consciousness in subtlety, it becomes more worthy of liberation. Kundalini enhances this same ability. With the eyes closed at the time of Kundalini meditation, the doors of almost all external senses are closed. Still, with the power of yoga meditation, there is so much consciousness in the Kundalini being ignited in the mind, that is not even with the help of external senses. Such continuous practice of years brings the same consciousness in a calm, thoughtless mind without Kundalini. This is called enlightenment. Actually, mind is also a subtle form of external senses. A thoughtless mind is often called a soul.

Organism development as Kundalini development

In fact, Kundalini (neuronal energy) is evolving or rising up in the form of evolving organisms. Actually, Kundalini represents the mind itself. Kundalini is the highest level of mental thought. Therefore, we can measure the level of consciousness of the mind through the level of consciousness of Kundalini. Reverse is also true that’s the consciousness of Kundalini can be measured through the consciousness of mind.

Kundalini working requires the same neuronal energy that is required for brain or mind working. That neuronal energy is stimulated by prana energy or prana shakti that is generalized energy of whole body. So both are propelled by same fuel that’s why both are interconnected. But the main objective of creation is providing ultimate status to the organism. This is done by kundalini. It means that kundalini development is the primary goal of creation, not the brain development. Brain development is there itself unwillingly. It’s a after effect and even becomes a side effect if utilized in a negative way. Many old civilizations understood this fact very well and kept main focus on Kundalini in the form of various spiritual practices. Today, Kundalini happenings are increasing day by day because brain development of today’s era is also causing Kundalini development indirectly. Therefore, it’s best way to undertake Kundalini development and brain or world development together so as to get kundalini awakening in a shortest time possible. Karma yoga is also a good method for this.

Kundalini is the measure of the development of consciousness. Kundalini is in sleep in least conscious subject. Kundalini’s sleep means that the mind is asleep. It’s not called mindlessness because the consciousness of the mind never ends, it only becomes incoherent, that is, it falls asleep. At that time, there is darkness in the place of conscious mind. It is just like when a man is asleep, then his consciousness disappears, but it is still doing all the work that keeps the body alive. After enlightenment, Kundalini with higher consciousness is constantly dominating  in the mind, which we call samadhi. It can be called the closest stage of complete awakening of Kundalini. Between these two opposite ends most of the organisms are there. The bulb of his Kundalini consciousness sometimes burns, sometimes slows down, sometimes extinguishes.

The one who comes to hear about yoga, he hears that only Kundalini keeps on climbing in the form of different creatures. Among the lowest living organisms and plants, it remains dormant at the base. It’s also called Kundalini shakti or prana shakti. Actually, there too it’s always working in background without being experienced by organism to maintain body. It is distributed in whole body but it’s called residing in muladhar chakra because that’s the main place of it’s growth and nourishment. It’s like as if a man can wander everywhere in the world but he achieves his growth, nourishment and rest (sleep) mainly at it’s home. Uncouncious mind and muladhar chakra, both are said to be as similar and both being connected with the worst sentiments. Further added, kundalini starts it’s long journey from Muladhar Chakra only. Journey towards the light starts from the darkness only. In some of the less evolved organisms, it comes into a mildly awake state in the base chakra. These may be called bisexual or hermaphroditic. Probably at this stage, the soul fell from Sahasrara and fell asleep in the pit of Muladhara. That is why that organism was divided into yin or female and yang or male form, so that by attraction towards each other, the soul could ascend from muladhara to re-enter Sahasrara. Muladhar dominated lowest organisms have nothing to do outer energetic functions other than the elimination of waste body products. This is the work of muladhar chakra situated near anal opening. So their Kundalini energy is said to be concentrated in muladhar chakra. In the organisms that develop from it, it rises up to the Swadhisthana chakra. Here, sexual differentiation of organism occurs and it start feeling sexual desire with sexual attraction. It’s often seen that lower organisms reproduce at much higher rate and major part of their energy is consumed by this process. It provides wonderful force for kundalini or organism development. This force is still working continuously in today’s well developed human being too. In moderately developed organisms, kundalini enters the navel chakra. That’s why lower organisms keep on eating throughout day and night continuously. It comes into the heart chakra in a higher quality animal, probably in the cow and in a loving person. Possibly that’s why the cow appears as full of affection. Majority of digestive processes are carried out by microorganisms in cow, so it saves lot of energy. It brings down one’s negative energies existing in the form of high blood pressure, stress etc. down. That’s why people are spending thousands of dollars today to develop cowmunication (communication with cow). In primates like baboon, gorilla etc. the Kundalini energy further travels ahead to their arms or forelimbs, that’s why they maximally utilize their forelimb function. Likewise, in beautifully singing bird like cuckoo, Kundalini energy can be said to be concentrated in throat chakra. In intelligent animals with analytical skills like dolphins, it can be said to be coming up to agya chakra. It can come to Sahasrara chakra in human only that too with proper brain practice, because only he can awaken it and the place of awakening is sahasrar only. In the highest order human, it is fully awake in Sahasrara.

The seven chakras of Kundalini are in the form of seven worlds

The scriptures describe the seven worlds above earth. These seven lokas or abodes are in the form of seven chakras. The lowest abode is the Mooladhara Chakra, because the organisms at that level have the lowest consciousness. The level of consciousness increases by going into the realms or chakras above it. This level is highest in Sahasrara. Kundalini awakening means that the level of consciousness is reached at the of union of Shiva and Shakti, making it known as Shivaloka or Brahmaloka. By the way, seven dark abodes have been told even below the earth. In them also, the consciousness keeps falling downwards respectively. In these worlds, most of the demons are said to be living. This is because their level of consciousness has fallen so much that they continue to malign the gods, sages and other beings with higher consciousness. Earth has been considered equivalent to Muladhara Chakra. The abodes in the sky above are the high abodes or heaven, while below the earth are as the hell.

The upright standing of the man and the pit in the back is also an important link in the bio-development chain

I told in an old post how I had to keep my back straight and in a natural posture while sitting in my new car, because its legspace seemed a little low. This helped my muladhar energy to awaken my Kundalini through efficiently climbing up in the back. People can say that the man stood up straight to use the next two legs as a hand. But even primates like gorillas do so. Even the early humans used to do this. Their back is not straight, nor does it seem necessary to use hands. Then why the developed man’s back was straightened. This happened in order to make Kundalini easily and efficiently offered from the base to the brain. Kundalini is as subtle as the sky. Its nature is to rise upwards. That’s why at the time of awakening of the Kundalini, it seems that the Kundalini is flying upwards with speed and power. Then you can say why then a pit formed in the back in the direction of the navel. In fact, it acts like a pit of a roller coaster. It keeps sucking Kundalini energy from the base with the power of yogic inbreathing  and depositing it inside as voluminous storage. Then, while working or doing yoga, when a man bends forward, this stored lot of energy quickly runs upwards towards the brain after catching the velocity. A small pit is formed at the center of the neck, which is the vishuddhi chakra. It likewise pushes the energy upwards to brain by providing a Momentum to this Kundalini energy gathered on the Anahata Chakra with the power of yogic outbreathing. Likewise, swadhishthan chakra and muladhar chakra keeps sexual energy stored to help push it up through back during yoga.

The sexual drive is the biggest contributor to the development of life

In a bisexual organism, yin and yang were together in the same body. This means that it was a complete soul. Because they did not have their own separate desire for development, they were developed like other natural and lifeless objects like mountains, soil, celestial bodies. The pace of that development was natural and slow. Then along with the division of gender, yin-yang was also divided. There was majority of yang in the male category and yin in the female category. This division made the organism feel imperfect within itself. Probably at this stage, the incomplete soul was born. He started trying to gather Yin or Yang to be complete again as earlier. This led to the creation of Kama Bhava or sexual feeling. This created an intense attraction between the male category and the female category of organisms. This sexual sentiment is the biggest contributor to the development of life. Because it produces the most powerful non duality, with which Kundalini develops most strongly and rapidly. We have experientially proved in many posts that non duality, Kundalini and bliss tend to live together. This gave artificiality and fast pace to biological development. Even today, in the form of Tantric Kundalini yoga, it is helping man to make the final jump of the development chain to achieve the perfection or liberation. It combines Yin (shakti) residing at Mooladhara chakra with Yang (Shiva) residing at Sahasrar chakra. Yin is called Prakriti and Yang is called Purusha in Indian philosophy. Advaita bhava is produced by the union of yin-yang, which indirectly develops the kundalini. It is not that the attraction of yin-yang is only the attraction of men and women. It can be between any of the opposite expressions. Muladhara is a symbol of darkness, inferiority, ignorance, hatred, etc. all low emotions. In contrast, Sahasrara is a symbol of light, highness, knowledge, love, etc. all high emotions. That is why the simultaneous Kundalini meditation on these two chakras creates intense nonduality, due to which the Kundalini starts to shine in Sahasrara. The main function of sexual attraction is that by it the muladhara and the Sahasrara Chakra are refreshed and strengthened together.

Kundalini switch

Friends, this time I will describe the simple technique of yoga. This is, to touch the lower surface of the tongue with the soft palate. Well I had written about it earlier also. But this time I will show the practical form of the technique. Just now I landed the Kundalini through the front channel through the tongue. With continuous practice of yoga, my technique is constantly improving. I am constantly learning new things about it.

The brain’s thoughts and tongue-palate touch should be meditated together

By doing this, the power of thoughts itself goes down through the front channel.

The more far inside the tongue is in contact with the palate, the better

The back part of the palate is soft, velvety, moist and slippery. There the sense of touch is also stronger and full of joy. The more the Kundalini is in the upper chakras, the faster and deeper the sensation of mutual touch of the tongue and palate. Even if the touch sensation remains for a moment, the Kundalini descends. This is similar to the way a current flows through the momentary contact of two wires. Many times this feeling is also produced by rubbing the tongue on the palate.

Breathing also works to make and erase the tongue and palate touch

That is why the contact point of the tongue-palate is also called Kundalini switch. This contact point becomes somewhat loose while breathing. Actually, awareness decreases here. This means that the Kundalini switches off, and the loop circuit of the channel breaks. This causes Kundalini energy to accumulate in the brain. This happens more thoroughly when the air is inhaled through stomach movement. Similarly, meditating on the back channel as a hood raising snake also helps Kundalini to climb up the back channel. The accumulation of Kundalini energy in the brain also makes it easier to experience the sensation of touch of the tongue and palate, as mentioned above. Also, it becomes easier while exhaling, because at that time there is downward pressure on the entire front channel. In this way, all these technical points help each other like the spares of an automatic device, and the Kundalini cycle starts running continuously. This refreshes both body and mind. Anyway, anytime the tongue touches the palate, the extra burden of the brain comes down. When the brain becomes empty, the Kundalini manifests itself in it. Nothing happens with just touch, awareness should also reach there. Deep feeling of touch sensation there causes reach of awareness there itself. As a result, there is a deep muscular sensation in the front channel, especially in the front swadhishthan chakra, and regular and deep breathing starts with a deep gasp of breath. This is the movement of Kundalini Energy.

The front channel passes through the center of the back of the tongue, intercepting all the front chakras uo to the Muladhar Chakra. This causes a sensation with cramp in the entire front channel area as Kundalini Energy passes through it.

At times, the Kundalini energy is felt on a thin and central line, sometimes without a line

One does not always have to move the tongue too far back on the palate. Many times a good feeling is found in the front bony part of the palate. In normal position of tongue, tactile sensation can also be experienced along the palate instead of inverted tongue. It should be done as it seems appropriate. At times, Kundalini feels moving in a thin line. This happens when meditation is deep, and the mind is calm. Many times the Kundalini Shakti is seen only changing place from one Chakra to another Chakra, the channel line connecting the Chakras is not visible. Feelings develop on their own with practice. Therefore, do not imitate the sensations of others, and one should be engaged in right practice. Similarly, sometimes the movement of the Kundalini causes the contraction and relaxation of the muscles of the area to be felt, of course, the Kundalini is not detected. This is done by applying the correct technique. It shows the influence of Kundalini. Sometimes it does not even feel, especially when the muscles are tired.

Kundalini is the manifestation of Lord Krishna who killed Mythological Kaliyanag in Yamuna river

Friends, yoga is a scientific method. Common people cannot understand it easily. They will practice it when they understand it. That is why the Puranas have been composed to facilitate the common public. Yoga has been explained in the Puranas as various mythic events and stories. Although being as mythological forms these stories are still theoretically true. This is so because these myths are classical and specially designed, as opposed to non classical or ordinary myths. Contrary to the thinking of some so-called modernists, they do not fall under the category of superstition. Many things cannot be said directly to avoid violations of social, personal and practical limitations, hence they have to be said as scientific myths. Yoga can be difficult to understand instantly. One has to adopt a Yogic or nondual lifestyle for a long time. That is why in Puranas, things related to yoga are presented as amusing mythology. This keeps these stories interesting for a man for a long time. With this, a man automatically becomes a yogi indirectly, and with a little extra effort, he can also become a perfect yogi if he gets a favorable situation. If everyone became a fulltime yogi together, then how would worldly work go. That is why yoga is molded as such scientific and pleasant stories, on which faith remains. Due to this, the man remains tied in the Yogic lifestyle at all times even while performing all the obligations of worldliness. One such famous story comes in the Shrimad Bhagwat Mahapuran, which describes the war between Lord Krishna and Kaliyanag. According to that legend, a huge snake named Kaliya who had hundreds of hoods lived on the island of Ramanak, with the fear of Garuda, the vehicle of Lord Vishnu. He was cursed by some saint that Lord Krishna will kill him and liberate him. Therefore, he came to the river Yamuna flowing near Vrindavan. The water of the Yamuna became poisonous due to its poison, killing the people, birds and animals around. Lord Krishna was playing ball with his grazer friends. Then his ball went into the water of Yamuna. Shri Krishna immediately leaped into the Yamuna. The next moment he was wrestling with Kaliynaag. After a lot of trouble, Shri Krishna climbed on the middle and biggest head of it. There he increased his weight and mashed his hoods. He grabbed his head and tail together and hit him here and there. In the end, he forced Kalyanag to give up. Then Kaliyanag’s wives came there and started asking Lord Krishna for his life. Srikrishna left him on the condition that he along with his family would leave the Yamuna and return to the island of Ramanak and would never enter the Yamuna again.

Kaliyanag is a symbol of the sushumna nadi or spinal cord, and Lord Shri Krishna is the symbol of Kundalini

In fact the structure of man resembles a serpent. The man’s software is made up of his central nervous system, which looks like a hood raising snake in shape. The brain and spinal cord come in it. The rest of the man’s body has been overlaid on this central nervous system. Sushumna channel runs in this central nervous system. Here the water of Yamuna river symbolizes the cerebrospinal fluid flowing around the spinal cord. Living in the island of Ramanak is a symbol of worldly indulgence. The word Ramanaka is derived from the Sanskrit word Ramanika or ramaneeya, meaning amusing. The fear of Garuda symbolizes the fear of saints. Saints do not go to the indulging places. It is seen that saints keep people away from unnecessary conflicts of worldliness. The curse of a monk means to show the right path to God by a gentleman. Saying about Kaliyanag being killed by Shri Krishna is a symbol of liberating him from the bondage of attachment. Shri Krishna sending him back to the island of Ramanak means that he should go in seclusion away from the innocent people of the world and spread poison of attachment there. Kaliyanag’s wives symbolize the ten senses. There are 5 work senses and 5 knowlege senses in them. These senses are said to be the wives of Kaliyanag because they become very powerful in the connection with the man attached to the world and become one with him. The poison of Kaliyanag signifies a attached lifestyle. It is the most powerful poison in the world. Due to this, man keeps dying in the cycle of birth and death again and again. The poison emanating from hundreds of hoods of Kaliyanag means that this attachment keeps on growing due to the hundreds of desires and worries that arise in the brain. Lord Krishna is the symbol of Kundalini here. His climb to the central hood of Kaliyanag means meditating Kundalini in the Sahasrara Chakra. Playing ball by Sri Krishna means Kundalini Yogasadhana. The ball is a symbol of pranayama here. Boy Krishna’s friend grazers symbolize various types of pranayamas and yogasanas. Breathing in and out denotes the ball going back and forth or up and down. The entry of the ball into the river means the entry of pranavayu into chakras. Sri Krishna’s leap into the river means that Kundalini also entered the chakras with pranavayu. Yamuna is the holy river in which Sri Krishna jumps. This means that the Kundalini enters only in the chakras consecrated by breathing. Mulling of the Kaliyanag by Sri Krishna means that Kundalini has curbed the mind’s unnecessary desires and concerns, and has cleaned up the ideological waste buried in the subconscious mind. The holding of Kaliyanag’s head and tail together by Sri Krishna means that the Kundalini has spread across the entire Sushumna channel from Muladhara Chakra to Sahasrara Chakra. Taking power from the Muladhar, Kundalini is shining in Sahasrara. This happens when the palate-tongue joint or Sahasrara and Muladhara are meditated together. By doing this, Kaliyanag’s banging means that the unnecessary noise of the brain is being eliminated, due to which man is moving towards eternal joy. To attempt to kill Kaliyanaag means to let the central nervous system of the body function in a controlled manner. Kaliyanag’s non-entry into the Yamuna again means that after Kundalini awakening, man never behaves indulgently.

Kundalini and temple having mutual cooperative relationship

Friends, I got a new Kundalini experience this week. The new may not be said even, you can say it in a new form. There is a very collaborative relationship between Kundalini Tantra and Sanatana Dharma. We will discuss this in this post.

Kundalini gets upward movement in the temple

For a day or two, I was feeling little restless and lightheaded. There was a pressure on my front Swadhisthana Chakra. It seemed that my Kundalini was stuck there. Yoga provided little relief, yet the pressure remained. I went to a shop next to a big temple to book bouquets of flowers for a big ceremony. When I came back, I forgot my bike there. I remembered the bike near the temple. I entered inside the temple thinking that it was God’s order. There were locks on the doors of the temple. So I took a walk in an open and wide courtyard outside main temple rooms made of marble. There I remembered Kundalini in my brain. At the same time, the Kundalini pressure of Swadhisthan was also felt ascending. There were some people coming and going there. I moved out of their way in seclusion and sat on a narrow platform with a glass wall. My body itself was trying to create a position that would put upward stretch on the Kundalini of the Swadhisthana Chakra. I meditated on the divine and multihooded form of a serpent laid on my back up to brain spreading its hood. Starting from vajra, my kundalini coming as a sensory vein or channel to the rear Anahata Chakra. Backward flow method of meditation also helped in it. I felt the thoughts of the brain reaching the front Anahata Chakra through the front channel as Kundalini. Due to this, the upper prana and the lower prana (apana) collided with each other on the Anahata Chakra, revealing the glowing Kundalini there. Then I also got a call from my wife who was out from some time, which may have happened by invisible telepathy. It gave me more strength.With this, the pressure of the front Swadhisthana Chakra ended. My breath started moving fast and deep. That breath was very relaxing and enjoying. All the life energy called as prana related to Kundalini was got by my Anahata Chakra. That made my heart delighted, and I was refreshened up, therefore returned home on the bike, and happily got busy with my work. A new Kundalini-mystery was revealed behind the construction of big temples.

Semen retention is the main reason for pressure on the swadhishthan chakra

This can happen by avoiding sexual intercourse, viewing porn, and also with imperfect tantric sex. Therefore, with proper yogasadhana, this pressure should be kept rising up the spinal column. If there is a headache or pressure in the brain with its reaching to the brain, then this pressure should be carried up to the Anahata Chakra only in the aforesaid manner.

Kundalini enhances the power or energy generated by yoga meditation

Friends, I am going to reveal the biggest secret related to Kundalini in this post.  The thing which is enhanced by yoga practice, has been given different names at different places.  Sometimes it is called energy, sometimes sensation, sometimes light, and sometimes it is called Kundalini.  Actually all these names are correct.  All these names are describing one part of the single sadhana as many blinds describe an elephant with one part of it.

My own experience of uplifting sensation energy

I told in a previous post how my emotional energy was constantly flowing from Muladhara to Sahasrara due to emotional shock. Sahasrar is in the middle of the brain or say that it’s a point three fingers forward from the place where the shikha is tied. There is a sensation on pressing there anyway. Energy was going in a straight line in the middle of the neck surface to Sahasrara, not turning with the head curvature. Meaning that it was not going to take the waves along the surface of the head but going up through nearby the middle of it. That luminous energy looked like a bridge, connecting these two chakras.  This means that my sushumna channel in spinal cord was opened.  In fact, this energy was just like an ordinary sensation of skin scratching, but very condensate.  I used to believe less on such energy channels earlier, but this experience confirmed my faith.  This energy flow lasted for about 10 seconds, during which I experienced a very bright temple.  As if I joined the temple and got united with it.  Then my Kundalini came into my field of experience, and I became one with it.  Although it was not a complete one.  That is, it was a fragmented or meager Kundalini awakening, not complete.  Probably this happened because my spinal cord was not fully opened, and it did not remain open for long.

Additional benefits of being united with Kundalini

The moment the sensory energy is flowing from Muladhara to Sahasrara through the sushumna channel, the mental picture that is formed at that time is so intense and clear that the person becomes united with it by fully joining it to the depth of soul.  It gives man that greatest happiness of life, which is possible.  That makes the man satisfied.  With this he becomes detached towards life and becomes nondual. This causes Kundalini to settle in his mind, because Kundalini is always accompanied by Advaita.  If a man is already doing Kundalini practice, then during the sushumna flow, instead of other images, the picture of Kundalini is awakened in his mind, and that makes the man unified with kundalini. This gives additional power to the Kundalini.  If the Kundalini is paired with yoga sensations from the beginning, then the sensation and kundalini, both continue to enhance each other.  When Kundalini came to my mind during the sushumna flow, I felt more connected to that than the temple.  This happened because with daily Kundalini meditation, I used to live with Kundalini. It is proved by these things that complete energy cultivation is possible only through Kundalini Yoga.

If chakras are not blocked, then full kundalini awakening can be there without the experience of energy flow through sushumna channel

I give my own example to prove above facts. During my enlightenment experience, I was united with the varied scene seen in the dream, not with any particular Kundalini picture. But after that, my female friend as Kundalini was firmly attached to my mind, with the greatest help of which I reached the experience of that enlightenment.

Many years after that, I started doing Kundalini cultivation. I made the same old spiritual man my Kundalini. During that time, when my spinal cord opened and energy flowed in it (though I did not feel that flow, because all my chakras were unblocked, that’s why that was full awakening although I dropped it down out of fear), then the Kundalini picture appeared in my mind and I became completely united with it. Although I was also united with other background scenes, but the main one was Kundalini. In the same way, at time of enlightenment, I didn’t experience energy flow in back that’s why that was appearing as full awakening.

Sushumna channel opens up only when there is special breathing

It is said that when the breath is diaphragmatic, that is, abdominal, deep, slow, and without sound;  Only then is the sushumna more likely to open.  During my emotional shock my breath became exactly like this.  This is why my spinal cord opened.  This proves the popular conception that yoga is done only by the regulation of breath.

For the energy rise through sushumna, there should be a lot of potential difference between the muladhar and the Sahasrara chakras

It was an emotional shock as detailed in previous post that caused my brain to become fully discharged and it produced negative potential in it. My Muladhar was fully energized and thus was in full positive potential due to regular Tantric Yogasadhana.  This led to a lot of potential difference between Muladhar and Sahasrara.  This created a sensational electric spark between Muladhar and Sahasrar, which we are calling as Energy rise.
And yes, the friend I met with an emotional shock in the previous post has a lovely compromise.  With love…

Kundalini surge with biking (riding bike / bicycle) Yoga

Bhishm and Hridayesh

People think that daily busy lifestyle hinders Kundalini practice. However, this does not happen. Kundalini rises very fast due to busy work. Yoga also gives the power to do daily work. Both of work and yoga are complementary and supportive of each other. After 3 days of cycling, my Kundalini reached the brain from the muladhara. In the midst of heavy heat, I was able to run so much with bicycle, because my mind and body were fit with daily Kundalini yoga exercises.

My Bicycling Yoga Experience

This week, due to partial corona lockdown, I started visiting my office on cycle. One day used to travel for a total of 20 kilometers. On the first day, I noticed that my basement/muladhar was very strong and full of pressure. That sensation was the same as one feels with semen retention. It was as if someone on my muladhara chakra had kicked deep with a pointed leather shoe from the front, and then I was getting sweet and deep pain. That made me a little restless during the day. That sensation again increased while doing yoga. I used to try to push that sensation repeatedly through back. By contemplating the Sheshnag of the back with Pranayama, that sensation seemed to go up. I have described this pranayama in an old post with “backward flow” and “Sheshnag” category. When that pain-like sensation used to go up, then there was a sweet pain like spasm in the back. At the same time, the Kundalini picture also used to appear there. This went on for two days. On the third day, that sensation hit my rear Anahata Chakra. It seemed as if someone had hit my back Anahata Chakra with a pointed leather shoe, after which sweet and deep pain was being caused on it. From it, the pressure and the sensation at muladhara disappeared. Sensation bypassed the Manipur Chakra. This meant that the Manipur Chakra was not  blocked. The chakra that is blocked, there the sweet pain is felt. After a day, that sensation started climbing up through the neck. Then I started feeling the sweet pain and stiffness in the center of the neck (Vishuddhi Chakra). On the same day, my Muladhara got more sensation from outside means. That sensation went up easily, as the base chakra was already unblocked by the previous flow. It met the neck sensation and made it stronger. The sensation of Anahata Chakra disappeared. The next day, that sensation from the neck started reaching the brain, causing the head to feel lighter but heavier during energy surges. I was sitting in a chair during the day, and I got a 4-5 minute nap. When I got up, the energy surge was sweeping the entire brain. The mind was heavy and pressurized. It seemed that bunches of bees were flying in it. Although bliss was also coming. To prevent that feeling from interfering with the work, I touched the opposite face of tongue with the palate. From that, immediately the surge of sensation came down through the front channel and came to my front anahata chakra. That made my mind completely calm, as if nothing had happened. Kundalini appeared strongly in the heart, and that was elated with joy. There was lonely energy in the brain; Kundalini appeared only in the heart. This proved that love resides in the heart. It is not a surprising miracle, but a phenomenon related to the normal physiology of the body. This type of Kundalini flow continues throughout the life of a yogi. Kundalini awakening happens only when there are many favorable conditions for it, and the chakras are not blocked. At the time when the energy surge was enveloping my mind, if I had a deep memory of Kundalini for any reason, then it would have been a favorable situation for Kundalini awakening. In fact, it was a surge of Prana in the brain, because it did not have a Kundalini. Conversely, Kundalini can also create a surge of Prana. This means, deep remembrance of Kundalini itself creates a surge of Prana in the mind. Kundalini is associated with this surge itself, because it is Kundalini that has created the surge (great wave) of Prana. In that case, Kundalini awakening often occurs. The same Kundalini awakening happened to me about 3 years ago, which I have described on the homepage of this website.

Biking or cycling yoga stimulates diaphragmatic breath

I think my Muladhara Chakra was greatly agitated by taking deep breaths with my belly while riding a bicycle. In sports bikes, the posture of the back is in its natural state, and Muladhara Chakra is also stimulated by the pressure of its thin seat. Together, the meditation of Sheshnag breathing in and out in the form of my back gave my Muladhara more energy. With that, semen power started accumulating in the base chakra. It also triggered backward flow, which caused the accumulated energy in the base chakra to climb up through back channel. Muladhara’s sensation was the same as that produced by conserving sexual energy. Together, it was also motivating for sexual intercourse. Perhaps this is the reason why people active in work are also sexually active. I used to keep the mouth and tongue closed tightly, and most of the surface of the tongue was tightly affixed to the palate. I used to think of it like a slab of the top of a pillar, which connected the brain to the front pillar or energy channel. With this, at the time of cycling, the useless thoughts of the mind used to flow down, and give energy to the body. It also kept my mind calm, and there was no tiredness either.

The next day my Kundalini energy returned to the Manipur Chakra

The next day my deep and sweet pain came on the rear Manipur Chakra. Possibly, it descended from the front Anahata Chakra to the front Manipur Chakra. From the front, it had come to the rear Manipur Chakra in the back. In fact, this sweet pain is called energy. This energy rotates in the channel loop. When the strongest and favorite mental picture is mixed with this pain, then this energy is called Kundalini. I also felt that empty energy is more effective on the back chakras, while Kundalini is more effective on the front chakras. The twists or bands that form in the back at various places form the energy with which the Kundalini picture is mixed.

Kundalini awakening is not necessary for spiritual progress

The contribution of Kundalini awakening is that it instills unwavering faith in the mind of the seeker towards Kundalini Yoga meditation. From that, the seeker keeps doing Kundalini Yogasadhana every day. In this way, if a person always performs Kundalini Yogasadha in the right way, then in a way his Kundalini will be considered awakened. However, to learn Kundalini Yogasadhana properly, he will need a qualified teacher. In a way, this website is also working as a guru (e-guru).

Kundalini with backward flow method (kundalini pump or reverse flow method of breathing) as an alternative to sexual kundalini yoga;  atleast in today’s Corona period air should be inhaled properly and fully, because who knows when the corona snaps one’s breath?

In yoga, breathing is the most important thing.  Most of the journey of yoga is done only by breathing properly.  That is why it is said that by winning the breath, the mind also comes under victory. Kundalini moves by itself with proper breathing. Therefore, by revolving the breath on the chakras, the Kundalini starts revolving on its own.

Backward flow (reverse breathing) method is the main part of breathing yoga

To learn the inverse breathing method, the first is to learn to breathe through the abdomen.  It is also known as diaphragmatic deep breathing.  In this, the stomach swells out when air inhaled.  When the breath is exhaled, the stomach shrinks inward.  If this causes the stomach to move in the opposite order, then that breath is considered to be from the chest.  Breath taken from the chest keeps the mind fickle, and the body does not get enough oxygen.

In inverse breathing method, the breath is not left out of the body

Physically, this thing may seem strange, because the breath will surely come out during out breathing.  But it is true spiritually.  The subtle meditative power of the outgoing breath is pushed down from the stomach.  It produces a sensation below the navel and around the Swadhisthana Chakra.  That sensation stimulates the semen-making process.

The inhaled breath actually goes up the spine

The outgoing breath creates a point of semen sensation on the Swadhisthana Chakra. That sensation ascends upwards with inbreathing through the spinal cord after first passing to the rear Swadhisthana Chakra. It goes through all the chakras to reach Sahasrara.  That sensation is accompanied by the subtle power of semen and Kundalini. In this way we can see that the air going downwards inside the bswadhishthan chakra goes upwards, and the air going upwards goes downwards.  That is why it is called backward flow method.

The reverse-breathing method becomes easier with the meditation of the Sheshnaga (divine serpent) extending from the Muladhara to the Sahasrar Chakra

According to my previous posts of Sheshnag, Sheshnag has placed its base coil on the muladhar and the swadhishthan chakra.  He is standing up through the spine, and he has a thousand hoods in the brain. When we breathe through the stomach, he becomes straight and stiff, stretching backwards, and lifts his hood.  This means that the breath in his body climbed upwards and reached his hood.  With this, the power of the aforesaid sensation goes upwards.  When we exhale, Sheshnaga becomes loosened, and tilts his hood down.  It seems that he exhaled with hissing downward.  At the same time, the stomach also shrinks inward and presses downwards.  Both of these physical effects result in sensation formed at aforementioned swadhishthan point.

Reverse breathing method is the best alternative for sexual yoga

Many people are unable to have sex due to various physical and mental reasons. This method is best for them.  Renunciant Yogis also used this method.  By this, the energy of semen gets transferred to the brain easily.
