Effective Meditation needs Discipline in Food & other Actions

For the one balanced in food and recreation, who is restrained in his actions, whose sleep and walking are regulated, there ensures a discipline which destroys all ailment.”

                                            — Lord Krishna in Bhagawad Gita, VI, 7.

Kundalini Awakening and Internal-Trip Perception

All the subtle powers of consciousness and life force at work in the higher centres come into physical manifestation through the channel of the coccygeal (Centre of Energy or Moola Chakra). — Mother nature in the coccyx is calm and controlled, bringing health, beauty and peace to the kingdom. At the command of Yogi in deep meditation, the creative force turns inward and flows back to its source in the thousand-petal lotus (Crown Chakra or Sahasrara Kendra). Yoga refers to this power flowing from the coccyx to Spirit as the Awakened Kundalini.                                                                       — Bhagwad Gita, I, 1

Meditation process in General

To begin, make sure of peaceful environment free of any disturbance. Switch off all mobile phones and door bells. Once Meditation begins, no entry-exit of anyone.

  1. Feel relaxed, free from steess and Still like a statue, keeping spine straight & self-supporting: Dhyanasana, Gyan Mudra, Dhyana Mudra, MPD (9 times), Dhyeya Sutra (3 times) and Kayotsarga (5 Minutes).

  2. Turn your senses inward. With space and time mode we can easily turn our senses inwards or outwards connecting with various objects. Breath is life and principal carrier or vehicle for the flow of life force energy and all its movements within the body. We sometimes take it to be granted. Without Breath none of our senses can function. With Breath we remain intimately connected with our emotions & state of mind. Meditative Awareness is our inherent birth-right.

  3. Being in touch with Breath opens up the possibilities of Meditative Awareness. Focus your awareness at the joint of upper lip & bridge of both nostrils. Here mind sets naturally because Breath itself is natural focus for the attention of the mind. At this centre of awareness of touch and feeling, feel the air entering and leaving the body and observe the flow of life force energy and all its movements within the body. At this point, without any effort or jerks, all extraneous noises disappear and the Breath becomes smooth and even so that exhalation and inhalation are the same. Simply observe the point where inhalation becomes exhalation and vice versa, without any gap or pause. Naturally breathing becomes one continuous cycle. Focus at this centre of awareness, naturally expanding to bring in touch with the entire energy field of our body from the tip of our toes to the crown of our head. If you can hold the inhaled-exhaled breath for longer period to your capacity, it provides deep relaxation to body and mind based on your systems of breathing and subtle energy carrying life-force breath throughout the body.

  4. Keeping the face muscles relaxed, simply observe incoming and outgoing breath as it is, without making any efforts, jerks or changes. While inhaling feel the expansion and while exhaling feel the contraction of the muscles of stomach. During inhale feel yourself receiving enlivening-fulfilling energy, light, life and vitality from mother nature; and during exhale feel yourself emptying-cleansing of all toxins, fatigue, stale, stress and everything you do not need in the body and feel free and relaxed. Ensure that you are continuously in touch with the flow of life-force breath at the joint of upper lip & bridge of both nostrils. In next phase, shift your focus of attention upwards to the Centre of Intuition (Ajna Chakra) between both eyebrows which is the seat of Being. It will enlighten the vision of the entire body and bathe the entire body in the divine light of Being, following instructions from the intellect.
