PM Practice

No AM practice possible due to social commitment. Quality of practice was good. It consisted of 90 minutes in a motel room with the air conditioning off and the window open.

Svadhyaya: Returned to review in depth “Meditation Pictorial”, Chapter 8 “Dreams”.

Dedication: Practice dedicated to Lord Shiva after 5-minute mantra (Om Namah Shivaya) incantation.

Breath Infusion: 45 minutes of Bhastrika prânâyâma. 15-20 minutes were dedicated to the process of clearing the thighs of apana air (CO2), and infusing prana (fresh O2) into them. Towards the end of the practice Kundalini was solicited in earnest twice successfully. The second time went into meditation right away.

Meditation: 40 minutes meditation on the back of the head in shavasana (cadaver position = reclining).  Most of the meditation consisted of concentration on the area of the back of the head. Naad sound was heard all along. The concentration is brought back and elongated carefully and painstakingly, for the goal of long-lasting relaxed Dhyana.

Dream recall: 1 dream recalled at the time of awakening, is now forgotten.
