ENDING KRIYA: REENERGISE AFTER DHYANA OR AFTER SLEEP

Image
 So, hey folks! Welcome to yet another episode of my musings.  Here we are talking and discussing on the topic of what i call the 'Ending Kriya' .This is very important especially for those who want both to know about who and what they have and also work in the world to be successful and make money to take care of the well-being of himself, his family,community, society and the nation. I compile sources from different sources viewed through the lens of years of experience in yoga and personal experience of the world matters. Most recent source i encountered is from the channel by the name 'Shaolin Online' Important points to note: 1. Ends with energising of manipuraka and then to heart centre. MORE SUBTLE/MANTRA LEVEL 1. Invite lakshmi devi I dedicate this to feet of The Lord, the supreme teacher and supreme being. Sri Krishna Guru padha samarpanam.

TEMPLE KRIYA

 The temple is place created for doing a particular kriya acheiving a particular pranayama.  There are 7 locations/planes in a temple each for a particular energy centre or chakra.

May look from top to bottom and then from top to bottom and from there throught he ground to the feet and from lower part of the body to the upper part of the body by the yogi, taking the samkalpa of cosmic energy and the temple's energy to enter into his body. Entry is done through the left of the temple entrance/ right leg of temple purusha/ devatha. Plane 3: Homa kund and the mantra jaap area/ Fire place/Manipura area Plane 4: The circumambulatory region / hridayakasha region/ Anahat region The sound of mantra jaap and its fire transmutates into the Anahat sound/ the sound without strikings
