ॐ नमः शिवाय

AM Practice

Woke up at 5:00 AM (Brahma-Muhurta). Practice was good and lasted 65 minutes.

Svadhyaya: Continued with Chapter 3 of “Bhagavad Gita Explained” – “Cultural Activity and Renunciation”.

Dedication: Session dedicated to Mahadeva, doing Tratak (eye concentration) on effigy of Lord Shiva for 5 minutes.

Breath Infusion: 30 minutes Kapalabhati prânâyâma while doing several asanas. Breath infusion emphasis was on the lower trunk and feet. Kundalini was solicited up sushumna twice.

Meditation: 30 minutes with concentration on naad on back of head. Thoughts continued coming from the front of head and Naad was used to obliterate them and then the meditation at the back of the head resumed. A good thing about today’s meditation, was the ability to stay on Naad for longer periods of time than previously possible.

Sadhana Planning and Tapasya:

1.  Doing as much prânâyâma as possible. Concentration on holding breath and energy distribution.

2.  Continue raising Kundalini up Sushumna Nadi with the objective of permanently boring sushumna open.

3.  Perfecting Naad meditation.

4.  Diet planning: Sattvic food, timing, amount, and concentration while eating very important.

Dream recall: One dream recalled.

==============================

PM Practice consisted of 20 minutes breath infusion, followed by 45 minutes meditation concentrating on Naad sound.
