ॐ नमः शिवाय

AM

Woke up at 4:00 AM (Brahma-Muhurta). Practiced yoga all day.

Austerities:

1.    Social interaction kept to a minimum.

2.    Restrictive diet on track. Now consists of one day water-only fast per week (Fridays), the rest of the week no solid food after lunch. The objective is to free up the afternoon and especially the night.

Study: Study of several spiritual books by the same author continued. In addition, reviewed canto 11, General History, of Srimad Bhagavatam.

Additional Spiritual Practice:

1.    Sungazed for 120 sec. Cautious daily increments of 5-10 seconds.

2.    78 rounds of Thokar Kriya prânâyâma.

Breath Infusion: Standard practice of 30 minutes. Used different floor asanas. Kundalini solicited twice up sushumna applying locks.

Meditation: Meditation on Naad for 30 minutes, thoughts continue to be a challenge.

Dream recall: Two dreams recalled. First dream was of the graphic quality as the one yesterday.

PM

Much stronger practice of breath infusion for 35 minutes. Same solicitation of Kundalini as per AM. Naad meditation was good, sound blaring from back of head with node located on the left ear, guided most of the meditation staying on the back of the head.
