ॐ नमः शिवाय

AM Practice

Woke up at 4:30 AM (Brahma-Muhurta). Practice was good and lasted a little over 100 minutes.

Svadhyaya: Started 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 10 minutes.

Breath Infusion: 45 minutes Bhastrika prânâyâma while doing several asanas. Breath infusion emphasis was on the lower trunk and feet. Kundalini was solicited up sushumna twice. There is an emphasis in trying to visualize the subtle body internally with eyes closed.

Meditation: 45 minutes with concentration on naad on back of head.

Sadhana Planning and Tapasya:

1.    Doing as much prânâyâma as possible.

2.    Perfecting Naad meditation.

3.    Diet planning still important: Sattvic food.

Dream recall: One dream recalled.

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

PM Practice consisted of 44 cycles of 2nd Kriya pranayama, as a warm up, followed by 30/30 minutes Bhastika/Naad meditation.
