Kundalini Yoga and meditation with Katerina Dimova
"Just as all rivers end up in the ocean,
all forms of yoga end up by raising the Kundalini,
the creative potential of the human being."
Yogi Bhajan, Master of Kundalini Yoga
What is Kundalini Yoga?
Kundalini
comes from the root "kundal" in Sanskrit, which means "the lock of the
hair from the beloved." The uncoiling of this hair is the awakening of
the Kundalini, the unlimited potential that already exists in every
human.
Yoga is the science
of the self, and Kundalini is the awakening of the self. Kundalini Yoga
encompasses the eight limbs of Patanjali and all seven branches of
yoga: Raja yoga, Hatha yoga, Karma yoga, Jana yoga, Mantra yoga,
Tantric yoga and Bhakti yoga.
Kundalini
Yoga, as taught by Yogi Bhajan, Master of Kundalini Yoga, is the
ancient science of Yoga. It incorporates exercise, breath, meditation
and sound current to help relax, strengthen and heal your body, mind
and spirit. Kundalini Yoga is the
"Yoga
of Awareness" for families and people who deal with the stress and
struggles of every day life. It gives you a clear mind, vitality and a
healthy life through the self-discovery of your infinite creative
potential or Kundalini energy.
Practicing
Kundalini Yoga is energizing and elevating. It concentrates the pranic
energy in the lower chakras (root, sex organs, and navel), raises it to
the higher chakras (heart, throat, third eye, crown center), then
balances all the chakras.
