Enlightenment is a Choice

 

 

Pursuing enlightenment is a choice we make before we come to class. One born of personal commitment and service to each other. Kundalini Yoga is a valuable tool and powerful support system for personal exploration and spiritual growth. Join teacher Kirantana as he employs kundalini and the element of fire in tonight's class

Gathering Life Force

 

 

By quieting your mind and giving a direction by tuning into a frequency of consciousness, this becomes your life, this becomes your Sadhana and it becomes automatic. You train yourself over a period of time and your discipline becomes automatic. This is how you live your life, and this is called Aradhana. This means you have control over the energy in this body, you’re not distracted you’re not tempted, but you’re appreciative and you’re the driver of this vehicle, in full control.

Members - If You Focus on the Outside Your Life is a Dream

 

 

When you gain control of the thought waves of the mind the inner dialogue no longer has control over you, because you’re focused on the inner light. The inner light is the guru for everyone. There’s no magic person, the wizard of Oz is just that. You must find your own light. We all share the compassion to bring that possibility to each other. Otherwise we just live at each other, we struggle, our egos get in the way and life is hard. But with that inner light it doesn’t matter if you live in a cave because that light illuminates everything.

The Heart Center, A Cyclone of Energy from Within

 

 

Inhale. Hold the breath. Aad Guray Nameh, the primal light within. Sat, true, Siri, forever infinite, that teaching that comes down within. Exhale please. Inhale deep, Have the hands at the heart center. Hold the breath. Go within now and visualize this energy coming. Base of your spine, sitting in this cycle of energy. Being drawn upwards into the light, hold the breath. Right through the heart center. All this spinning energy and you’re sitting right in the center. Perfectly beautifully, being drawn upward. Effortlessly. And exhale.

Members - Subduing the Ego

 

 

Ego is the basic operating system for your mind. You must have an ego, you must have a self-awareness and you must also have an operating system that works for your karma; your social obligations for this life. You also must train your ego, because as a yogi, you realize that the ego is not you, its just the framework that your mind works in to control this body. The more words that are said, the more must be said. Words themselves create the reality because they’re sound vibrations, they create a matrix of consciousness. But beyond that matrix of consciousness is who you are. So, you must learn how to program your mind. For us we’ll use the English language for the most part. We’ll also use mantras from this culture and other cultures. A mantra is just a sound vibration that reprograms the mind.

Members - On the Heart Center

 

 

You take all this energy, this passion, this life force, and you bring into heart center, then you share it with the entire creation. Everything you meet, every person you meet, it all becomes your family. Everything becomes the beloved because that’s the state of consciousness the heart represents. As a lover you have to have that feeling, that possibility, that you’re going to meet your creator just between the breaths. That’s the state of consciousness the you have to have to be a yogi. You have to have that heart center opened.

Members - Having that Space of Consciousness to Observe From

 

 

We always work on the body and the breath. We also work on the applications of your operating system and we work on the personality itself. The idea is that you create a personality that’s pleasing to the universe and pleasing to yourself, that’s very transparent, yet very strong, and that becomes the symbol of consciousness. That inner light becomes so viable in your own being that nothing else matters, it becomes so radiant in yourself that that’s all you want to see, and then you start to see that in everyone you meet. That kind of energy, when it flows, is heaven on earth. This is what creates the heart center.
