			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;Attachment is blinding; it lends an imaginary halo of attractiveness to the object of desire. &#8221;</p>
<p>All matter is transient. One may then question why desire something that holds not weight? </p>
<p>One may search for more money, more cars, bigger houses, more beautiful body, sexier friends, or even larger more volumious books (information), but it is not until one has reached Nirvikalpa Samadhi or the inner divine union with Source that things before thought to be important become second to the bliss of union with Source. </p>
<p>A simple way to experience what this bliss feels like is to master the following pranayama Kriya. Sitting comfortably with tongue rolled up and back to the back of the throat, begin to inhale while mentally focusing on the sound of the in and out breath. </p>
<p>By breathing in an listening to the sound of the rushing air coming into the back of the throat, focus on the sound for the entire inbreath and outbreath. Exagerate the in breath and out breath. Repeate this no less than 16 times in the morning and 16 times in the evening (starters no more than 32 in Am and 32 in pm). </p>
<p>The novice or first timer will notice a sense of peace, endurance, and even sense of increased vitality. This is the begining of the descent of bliss. As time practice of this technique deepens, eventually Samadhi or the ceasation of mental, and physical (even breathing and heart rate) will occur and bliss will ensue. This is the first step to Nirvikalpa Samadhi. </p>
<p>For those new to yoga or spiritual techniques this breathing techniques will do wonder for health, peace of mind, vitality, relaxation and even love of others. Although a basic pranayama technique it&#8217;s power is great for novice or expert, and has great potential to induce Samadhi. </p>
<p>For more information on Samadhi and spiritual techniques go to <a href="http://www.avatarbabaji.com">and purchase a eCourse or enroll in a in person course on Kriya and Yoga. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Pranayama or the art of mastering the breath. Why is it such an effective tool to bring about conscious, metaphysical, spiritual and materialistic success? </p>
<p>One cycle of in an out breath (repetition or one Kriya) moves kundalini or spiritual consciousness from the base spine up through each chakra moving around the 12 zodiac &#8220;signs&#8221;. In this way you evolve spiritually the equivalent of one full metaphysical and spiritual year. </p>
<p>Yogananda explained that it takes about 1 Million years of evolution to become realized. Doing 7-8 minutes (16 repetitions) in the morning and 7-8 minutes in the evening (16 repetitions), within one week you will have moved your consciousness 32X7 or 224 years (about 2 lifetimes). Within a year you would have altered your consciousness 11648 years (97 lifetimes), and within a lifetime (100 years) you would have altered your consciousness 1164800 years. </p>
<p>While little time involved (15 minutes a day) you will have moved through cosmic spiritual evolution moving into higher realizations. Things like telepathy, teleportation, levitation, manifesting, and cosmic realizations which many only dream of. </p>
<p>Make it the beginning of the greatest life you can start. The beginning of this year, make it a conscious resolution to add 15 minutes of pranayama each day (7-8 morning-16 repetitions, and 7-8 minutes evening-16 repetions). </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>During pranayama is there something to be said about how one can enter Nirvilkalpa?</p>
<p>Yes. By monitoring the breathing and watching the object of meditation become focused the breath or consciousness and &#8220;energy&#8221; will as you breath in towards maximum move up through the spine moving into the throat and into the cranium. It is this passage moving fully up the central channel or shushumna that allow Samadhi to take place.<br />
<div class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 254px"><img alt="Nirvikalpa Samadhi" src="http://agyaatdarshan.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/hatha-pranayama.jpg" title="Nirvikalpa Samadhi" width="244" height="361" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Nirvikalpa Samadhi</p></div><br />
By sitting in Samadhi and focusing on nothing or the object of meditation (one or the other) the mind will relax (mental distractions will slow and stop) and the higher or deeper need for full body relaxation will take you higher into cosmic consciousness (nirvikalpa Samadhi).  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Deathless, immortality, manifesting, elimination of karma and mergence back into Source or God. </p>
<p>All these and more found in Soruba. What is Soruba? Samadhi or that state beyond Nirvilkalpa is a facet of spirituality which brings with it divine connectedness with the nature of the template of God. </p>
<p>In works by this author Soruba is likened to finding and witnessing the backbone of God. It is the holigraphic nature of that which was before the play or cosmic reality which is witnessed in Soruba. Why is this important? </p>
<p>Soruba is like a block. It is a limitation or &#8220;governor&#8221; which block or limits higher realization and descent of divinity. Having realized the backbone or source of that which was before this play one moves beyond chakras 18, moving up as high as 66. It is this full potential (66 up and -42 below) which when opened and realized brings with it full divinity, godliness, and realization of the Source. </p>
<p>There are no less than three main ways to reach Soruba. One such way, is through pranayama. By sitting comfortably and breathing in through the nose while slightly closing the throat (using an Ahhh sound, not nasal sound-as most often it can be said to breath through the nose but use the throat). While breathing both on in breath and out breath focus on the first chakra for four consequtive in/out breaths. After this move up to the next chakra in sequence for four repetitions while focusing there. Continue moving up every four in/out breaths until you have done for at each of the seven chakra positions.  </p>
<p>A good start to pranayama is practicing this once in the morning and once in the evening if possible. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Why is yoga so valuable as a spiritual and life changing process? What is kundalini and why is release of kundalini so valuable to life, manifesting, and divinity? </p>
<p>Kundalini is consciousness stored and power or energy. Kundalini in the non awakened state resides in the base of the spine at the first or base chakra. Sitting there it swirls around mostly being awakened during sexual intercourse or manual stimulation. </p>
<p>During higher awakening the kundalini can open and move out of the first chakra moving up through the other chakras. In this way kundalini passes through 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, and up to the 7th chakra. When the kundalini or conscious energy (power) moves through (meditation and pranayama or mastery of breath are two great ways to raise kundalini through chakras) chakras passing energy up through the metaphysical storehouses (chakras) of power, spirituality, metaphysics and divinity.  <div class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 460px"><img alt="Kundalini Chakra" src="http://www.thedarkpsyde.com/images/Meditation.jpg" title="Kundalini Chakra" width="450" height="338" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Kundalini Chakra</p></div></p>
<p>In this way by practicing kundalini, Kriyas or pranayama one may open, clean, and energize chakras, releasing the metaphysical properties inherent or stored in the true value of the chakra. </p>
<p>Remember chakras are for things metaphysical (clairvoyance, clairaudience, clairsentence, as well as intuition, things like achieving desires, teleportation, longevity, realizations, power, fame, fortune, or even deathlessness) and non metaphysical (non-spiritual: health, beauty, constitution, cleanliness, graces, wisdom, alertness, healthy organs, and even intellectual ability). </p>
<p>With this in mind it should be understood that kriyas or pranayama practiced everyday in the way of mastering AUM and Samadhi is the best way to open, activate, and power kundalini, chakras, and metaphysics.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What is the key to How to Tantra? Three basic keys to tantra exist. The first key to using the nature of tantra is 1) learning to master the breath 2) sublimating sexual and productive energies 3) converting sexual energies into spiritual forces and energy. </p>
<p>The key to knowing how to tantra can be expressed in three short words. Learn Kundalini Kriyas. </p>
<p>What are kundalini Kriyas? Kriya or pranayama is the mastery of breath. By mastering the breath one can slow the process of sexual orgasm, and last indefinitely. By mastering the breath one develops longer and more powerful than average orgasms, and if done correctly one can develop heightened powers, siddhis (spiritual powers like levitation, or achieving any desire), longevity, and even deathlessness. </p>
<p>One of the greatest secrets to how to tantra is the serpent or cobra breath. This powerful kundalini or yoga breathing pranayama when performed during or even not during sex benefits sexual organs, reproductive organs (prostate, ovaries/uterus), as well as benefits by allowing one through dedication and practice to realized God. </p>
<p>Cobra breath through this way is mastery of sublimating sexual energy into spiritual energy. The cobra breath should be performed no less than five times during sexual intercourse. Here is how it is performed. </p>
<p>During inhalation (longer than normal breaths), “pull” sexual energy from scrotum or clitoris to the sacrum (small of the lower mid buttocks) and as you continue to breath in “pull” the energy up the spine to the middle forehead (where the nose meets the forehead). On expiration (out breath) hold the energy at the middle forehead place (where the nose meets the forehead). On the next in breath follow this technique, continuing as long as you like. </p>
<p>By continuing this way for five repetitions (more if you want to delay orgasm even longer), you will sublimate the sexual energy. Your ejaculation will be stronger, longer, more powerful, and you and your partner will not only have a stronger physical bond, but will recover faster, have more stamina and be able to have intercourse sooner than without doing the cobra breath. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Keys To Yoga Pranayama</p>
<p>Yoga Pranayama or yoga breathing is the art of mastering the breath. As Paramahansa Yogananda a great reformer and yogi described, Kriyas or Yoga Pranayama when done through the guidance of self realized instruction is the airplane route to self realization and witnessing God.</p>
<p>Yoga Pranayama or specialized breathing when done through the support of guru or self realized instruction brings about changes in the mental, physical, vital, intellectual and even spiritual energies which support the mind, body, constitution, thoughts, and Soul.</p>
<p>By practicing 10-15 minutes of yoga pranayama most every day you will advance the mind, body, constitution, thoughts, and Soul towards opening the chakras, releasing Omnipotence, Omniscience, and Omnipresence self, awaken godliness, wealth, and power unheard of.</p>
<p>There are four main things which yoga pranayama affords to those who practice regularly. Yoga Pranayama affords:</p>
<ol>
<li>Deeper levels of meditation and possibility of Samadhi (divine union with Soul and God)</li>
<li>Slowing of the breath</li>
<li>Decreases in aging, heart rate, blood pressure and equilibrium of mental and physical stresses</li>
<li>Powers, longevity, siddhis (like levitation, achieving any desire, or even spontaneous abilities like advanced healing, immortality, and even deathlessness)</li>
</ol>
<p>Some of the ways in which you can advance through using yoga pranayama is first by awakening the Soul. This can be done by practicing yoga pranayama in the early morning and late evening. By beginning with 14-16 cycles in the morning and 14-16 cycles in the late evening you will take the required steps to open up energies, consciousness and desires to realize God.</p>
<p>A cycle of yoga pranayama is a focused inbreath and focused outbreath. Quality yoga pranayama has three keys or supports.</p>
<ol>
<li>Breathing with mental activity</li>
<li>Breathing which opens the spiritual energy and nadi systems</li>
<li>Focused activity which has the ability to calm the mind, and allow Samadhi (divine union with Soul and God)</li>
</ol>
<p>One simple yoga pranayama is the mastery of mental counting while breathing in and out. A good rule of thumb is to count up during inhalation as high as you can count. This followed by a twice inspiration lenght Samadhi Hold. On expiration count out and the expiration should be half that of the inbreath.  Follow this by a twice inspiration lenght Samadhi empty chalice hold. For example if you were able to count up to 12 during your inhalation, then the exhalation should be trained to be a 6 count, with Samadhi Holds of 24.  If the inbreath was 5 the exhalation would be a count of 2.5 with the Samadhi holds at 10.</p>
<p>Something which needs to be kept in mind is that the levels of yoga pranayama should be monitored by three things.</p>
<ol>
<li>Do not do yoga pranayama less than 1 hour after  eating or drinking lots of fluids.</li>
<li>Do not begin too early to add additional yoga pranayama (i.e. only do 14-16 cycles in the morning and evening). And add small amounts or yoga pranayama (cycles) every few months</li>
<li>Do not retain or hold the breath, rather allow Samadhi to occur.</li>
</ol>
<p>Likely the most powerful yoga pranayama is something which helps with abundance. This yoga pranayama like the counting method is something which incorporates both mental activity with physical breathing.</p>
<p>In this yoga pranayama the key mental activity is to focus on the third eye. The third eye or sixth chakra is found at the root of the nose, where the nose meets the forehead. By focusing at this area and asking God for a raise, bonus, higher paying job, more sales, donations, or even wining in gambling/lottery, or dice, the mind will form the required steps needed to fulfill this manifestation or <a title="Mastering Desires" href="http://www.avatarbabaji.com/product_info.php?products_id=90&amp;cPath=0" target="_self">desire</a>.</p>
<p>Something else which you could do, is by actively using this yoga pranayama to instil habits like waking up early (see yourself get up at 5 or 6am), stop smoking, exercising or having a smaller leaner muscular frame, you will instil this yoga pranayama mind body connection (metaphysical process) and the mind will begin to instil this into the body.</p>
<p>The possibilities and power of <a title="Effects of Yoga Pranayama" href="http://www.avatarbabaji.com" target="_self">yoga pranayama</a> are infinite. To awaken all sources of abundance, powers, longevity, immortality and even deathlessness take the steps to learn the major yoga pranayama. To master the teaching of the gurus of yoga pranayama go to <a href="../../">www.avatarbabaji.com</a> for yoga pranayama instruction, ebooks, seminars, and powerful insights on how to create wealth, immortality, deathlessness, and followings or fame which  is unparalleled.</p>
