ॐ नमः शिवाय
PM Practice
No AM practice due to business appointment. Practice conducted at home was good overall and lasted 105 minutes. Emphasis was on breath infusion.
Svadhyaya: Back at home, returned to Chapter 22 “Application of Yoga to Mystic Activity” of “Uddhava Gita Explained”. Very important chapter and also is the one that follows which complements it, “The Yoga Process”.
Dedication: 5-minute mantra session invocation of Lord Shiva. Practice dedicated to Lord Shiva. Why do this? If I falter during the practice, which happens often, like if I intended to do a minimum of 45 minutes of breath infusion, an idea may come to stop at 30 minutes, at that point I invoke Lord Shiva, Mahadeva, and the strength is restored. It does not fail.
Breath Infusion: 55 minutes of Bhastrika prânâyâma. Half of the time was used in infusing fresh prana into the thighs, and extracting apana from them. Kundalini was solicited successfully twice without restrains or conditions.
Question: When concentrating in clearing the thighs…is there any specific lock(s) that needs to be applied?
Meditation: Consisted of 45 minutes with concentration on the back of the head. Naad sound was audible but low. Usual struggle to keep the concentration on target and to elongate it. Quality of meditation is usually less in the afternoon.
Dream recall: 2 dreams were recalled distinctly after waking up, but I failed to write them down and are now forgotten.

Alfredo's query:
When concentrating in clearing the thighs…is there any specific lock(s) that needs to be applied?
MiBeloved's Response:
There are no locks when you are working on the thighs. It is either a push down or a pull up or a spread out, where as you are doing the infusion, your attention is in the thigh(s) either pulling out energy, pushing in energy or spreading energy out.
If you find that you have to apply locks, then it means that you did not infuse enough energy into the trunk of the subtle body first. That should be done thoroughly.
There are also special techniques relating to breaking the relationship between the thighs and the sexual organ. As it is genetically, by nature’s grace, the thighs worship the sexual organs and serve as their most dutiful servants. So one has to shatter this relationship, so that the thighs no longer dedicate their most prized production, which is bone marrow, to the genitals.
Of course if you are begetting children, then this function of the thighs is appropriate but as a kriya yogi, it has no other use.
The energy in the thighs must be pulled up and out through the trunk of the body. And when that is done for some time, one will be able to tackle the legs and feet.
