For those who practice forcefully, in a very intense way, the skill of yoga will be achieved very soon.
AM
Woke up at 3:30 AM (Brahma-Muhurta). Practiced yoga most of the day.
Austerities:
1. Work in the AM diluted austerities.
2. Restrictive diet on track. Citric diet.
Study: Study of same spiritual books from same author, including summary, drawings and notes, continued.
Additional Practices: None.
Breath Infusion: Practice of 30 minutes. Studied comments on last video and tried to breathe from the navel and the results, especially during the seated and standing postures, are encouraging, as Kundalini rose to the head with force prompted by the kneeling asanas.
Meditation: Meditation on Naad for 45 minutes. Towards the end of the meditation, several visions were seen in the area of the brow chakra. These were subtle visions and not a 3rd eye opening. They consisted in readable texts, faces and landscapes similar to those I remember from Cuba.
Dream recall: 2 dreams recalled.
PM
Strong prânâyâma practice for 35 minutes. Continued to breathe from the navel in order to conquer the navel chakra. This part I did not know. Goes to show how important is the advice of those who know, and to ask the proper questions, I guess. I was having problems getting the air to Muladhara, and getting the Kundalini to rise properly. Concentrating on pumping the air using the navel muscles, allowed for shorter, stronger bursts, resulting in a forceful arousal of Kundalini into the head, after applying locks.
Meditation for 20 minutes on Naad.
