    I actually have a question. Is Kundalini yoga safe to practice while trying to concieve or during pregnancy?

    Hi Anmol!

    I am very new to your website and at the same time very keen to read and go through each and everything available at your site but every time I try to open a new webpage, I get a windows prompt saying runtime error and the page closes on its own. I really dont know why this is happening. I certainly would appreciate if you could tell me the reason so that I can rectify things at my end and access your website and all its pages without any problem and peacefully read through the contents.

    Thanks,
    Sandhya

    Hi there,
    i just went through your website. seems really nice. but could you tell me if i can practise kundalini awakening on my own? or do i need a guru.

    thanks

    Hi Ami,

    Yes Kundalini Yoga is good to practice during pregnancy, although there are certain poses and postures that should not be done.

    You can look for a good pre-natal kundalini yoga teacher near you, my wife benefited a lot from this during her pregnancy. In fact she liked it so much, she actually studied pre/post natal Kundalini Yoga and became an instructor herself :-).

    Hi Sandhya,

    Sorry to hear you are having this issue. I have found that my site works best with the Mozilla Firefox Browser. Perhaps you would like to try that. It is free to use and you can download it from here…

    Hi Balaji,

    Yes you can start without a teacher with the online classes I have on the website. But please follow the guidelines I have laid out. If you can find a teacher and classes near you that is also very helpful in getting your practice established and feeling the energy of a group Kundalini Yoga class.

    Best,

    Hi Anmol,

    I was wondering if you could recommend some exercises for weight loss. esp to lose belly and torso fat and fat in the arms. Have heard there are some great exercises in power yoga for weight loss and toning. Any asanas (power or normal yoga) you can suggest would be useful. Also, if i do start yoga, how long will i have to weight for the results to show…? thanks and keep up the great word on your site.

    on August 25th, 2008 at 7:05 pm

    Hey there, just wondering about the dangers or lack of …doing forceful pranayama which retention of breath like bellows breath or ‘victory’…In autobiography of a yogi, it is rejected as the bearer of negative physica,l emotional, and mental effects. What say ye?

  12. Anmol Mehta said,

    on August 28th, 2008 at 9:54 pm

    Hey Kyle,

    Great question. With regard to breath suspension either on inhalation or exhalation here are my thoughts…

    1. Never use force in any breath retention exercise. Instead only hold for as long as comfortable and release before straining. Essentially developing your capacity slowly over time.

    2. In meditation, breath suspension happens naturally and this should not be artificially introduced. It will happen when energy is needed to observe and comprehend via perception each and every thought that is occurring.

    Hope this helps.

    Best,
    Anmol

    Dear sir

    Recently I had an experience that leaded me to find a specialist like you and suggest me what to do.A week ago i was swimming in the sea with my friends when we decided to play a funny diving game ,first we took deep breaths on the surface and then dived in the sea for seconds coming up again to have deep breath again and then diving again we played this game for about 2-3 minutes , when we finally stopped something happened to me that i couldnt explain ,i started feeling my head thoughtless and in seconds I started travelling in a living tunnel which lead in a very bright magical exit I felt my body numb my friends seemed worried and started shouting at me but i just couldnt reply I only opened my eyes when I reached the exit of the tunnel because i was scared .what was that ?was it an accidental meditation experience and will i be able to reach that tunnel again because to be honest I was amazed and still am .I m looking forward to hearing from you.
    sincerely yours

    Dear George,

    You experienced a Kundalini Awakening, via the unintentional practice of Pranayama (Yoga Breathing Exercises).

    You can read about many more such experiences that others have had in the following article…

    Kundalini Awakening Symptoms

    I suggest to start a yoga/meditation program to help you prepare the body for such energy experiences and also, to help you further your spiritual progress which has of course started off with quite a bang.

    BTW: It is not unusual to experience a “mind-blowing” kundalini awakening event spontaneously as you did. It usually servers as an invitation to begin serious spiritual work.

    You can start here…

    (Pick class 100 or 101).

    Greetings Brother,
    Thank you very much for your wonderful and informative website. Such a pleasant change from people who sell what they call useful or enlightening exercises, which turn out upon use to be less than useful and enlightening only in the sense of caveat emptor, or let the buyer beware.
    I am curious if any of your exercises are contra-indicated with any other? I mean will practicing one lessen or eliminate the effects of another just practiced?
    I am most interested in using the kundalini sets, but I enjoy reading all that you have on the site.
    I find all your lessons very clear and simple to understand, and I am glad to have found your website.
    Have you seen or visited the freerice.com website? I only mention it to help you and your other visitors increase their good karma.
    May you be happy and thankful today,
    Kenny

    Hey Kenny,

    Great to hear you are enjoying the website. The Kriyas themselves are all fully balanced and complete. If you do plan to mix and match exercises though, then use the guidelines I have laid out in the following article…

    6 Guidelines for Creating Yoga Sets

    This should help keep everything in balance. Let me know if specific issues arise and I will be glad to help out.

    Thanks also for the helpful resource, I enjoyed playing :-D.

    i walk regularly and have tried power yoga but all i could do till now is just stop them from further increasing.

    Hi Sir,
    I am 21 and only 4′ 11′’. I was wondering if there are any asanas in Yoga for increasing the length of the spine and fibia/tibula bones for increase in height. Please suggest all asanas that may help improve my height. Also if you could please suggest any ayurveda medicines for the same i would be very grateful. Thankyou very much and please continue to help us with your guidance. Best Wishes.
    Priya.

  23. Anmol Mehta said,

    on October 27th, 2008 at 8:02 pm

    Hi Pooja,

    You are already on the right track if you are following a kapha reducing Ayurvedic Diet. Here is another article with helpful tips from Ayurveda for Weight Loss.

    I suggest the Weight Loss Yoga Set for sure, but also suggest aerobic exercise, specially the elliptical trainer if you have access to one.

    Let me know how it goes.

    Best,
    Anmol

  24. Anmol Mehta said,

    on October 27th, 2008 at 8:28 pm

    Hi Priya,

    Remember you are an infinite being, just embodying a human body.

    Although it is difficult to increase height after this age, you can practice the following asanas to help.

    Bow Pose
    Cobra Pose
    Head to Toe

    Also, practice the 2 poses for balance in this 2 part series (yoga pose for balance & tree pose).

    Basic Yoga Poses for Balance

    Also follow a healthy diet and practice visualization meditation, where you visualize your body the way you would like it to be.

    All Good Wishes,
    Anmol

  25. Lindy said,

    on November 3rd, 2008 at 1:34 am

    Dear Anmol,
    I am writing from Melbourne Australia after visiting your site and have a coupe of questions I hope you are in a position to answer for me.
    I would very much like to gain access to a forum / site where I can discuss the recent happenings I have witnessed in my partner. Neither of us knew anything about TANTRA and had only shared maybe 5 sexual encounters prior to my partner experiencing the most amazing sensations that can only be likened to all that is written about Tantra.
    I myself have not been as fortunate as him in that I am still trying to make the connection that he has so luckily been able to grasp without instruction. He has managed to rise from the first experience of having incredibly strong tingling in his head, hands and belly to now (after about 8 episodes later) to being able to bring on the “Tantric” feeling, harness it, build it, and circulate it throughout his whole body. The latest episode found him in such a state of euphoria that he sat up cupped both hands around what seemed to be a ball and said the energy within this sphere was so unbelievable that he felt he could round it off, lift it and throw it like a fireball. He said he felt so engulfed by this incredible feeling of being sooo able….. almost like he could move an object in the room just by concentrating this energy on it. I have watched his body wave with what seems to be the deepest pleasure for over an hour at a time. I have always read that these sorts of experiences can only be attained after years of devotion and study.
    Nothing like this has ever happend to either of us before and we cannot really tell anybody as this sort of information second hand really loses it beauty and significance when it has never been experienced first hand.
    All the sites we have come across only really describe the overall benefits of mutual exchange between male and female but never really describe in detail the actual sensations in basic terms.
    We would love to be able to exchange our experiences with other people and hear some of their stories as this is so new to us; likewise we would love to know what sort of heights you can reach and what other experiences are possible.
    I would also love to be able to share in this amazing experience with the man I love but am having trouble getting there which is so frustrating when he seems to have found it second nature. I want to embrace it so much and think it is one of the most incredible things I have ever witnessed but fear I will never be able to. I am not sure it is something I could do in a class with other people or with another person I dont know.
    Do you have any recommendations on what might be the best way for me to progress successfully?
    I would love to receive your feedback if you have the opportunity and appreciate your time.
    Kindest Regards
    Lindy

  26. Anmol Mehta said,

    on November 6th, 2008 at 12:49 am

    Hi Lindy,

    Welcome to the world of Tantra :-D. Yes sexual energy is certainly revered because it can be used for both the building of the physical body, but can also be used for spiritual growth.

    Such spontaneous occurrences, such as your partners, are sometimes reported. My suggestion is for him to ensure he builds his systems to handle the energy that is now coursing through him. This is important so that it does not do damage to his body.

    For you, it is important to remember that we are all on our unique trajectories to enlightenment and our pathways are our very own. I would not recommend you trying to duplicate his experiences, but instead to begin a meditation, kundalini yoga and tantra yoga practice of your own, and see what miracles happen for you.

    You can use the free online courses on this website if you like.

    Let me know if I can be of any further help and I would be glad to.

    Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us.

    Best,
    Anmol

  28. on December 19th, 2008 at 9:20 pm

    hi anmol,
    we were in 9th grade English w/ Mr. Dingle, and now here we are a quarter century or so later!
    I’d like to call your attn to the work of spiritual master/teacher/activist Andrew Cohen, if you’re not already familiar w/ his work. his path is called “evolutionary enlightenment”. i recognize it to be radically authentic and the most empowering, transforming perspective that i’m aware of at this point in human history. i highly encourage committed seekers to see if the evolutionary enlightenment perspective put forth by Andrew Cohen makes integral, unifying sense.

    It’s wonderful you have a resource for people seeking yoga websites and information, it truly is what is needed to help sort through all the websites that are less than quality.
    I see you don’t have yogatoday.com listed, and I have found it to be an excellent site for free classes that are quality and professional. They now offer free podcasts as well, and offer several styles of yoga including Ashtanga, Kundalini, and Vinyasa flow. I think you really should consider listing them as one of your recommended sites!
    Thank you again for this great resource.

  31. Anmol Mehta said,

    Hello sir,

    I really got inspired by your videos and information about Pranayam. I just visited your website today and am really enjoyed reading and watching the information.

    I am really interested in doing the pranayam exercises, but the problem is that I was suffering from fissures a couple months back and I have an experience that whenever I start any exercise like, jogging or general pushups or warmup exercises(I haven’t tried Pranayam yet) the fissures recur. I am having homeopathic medication on it and the fissures are healing gradually. Can you kindly suggest me that should I start with the pranayama exercises in this condition? And if your answer is yes what precautions should I take?

    Thanks a ton in advance,

    Regards,
    Ketan.

  38. Anmol Mehta said,

    on January 3rd, 2009 at 9:19 pm

    Hi Ketan,

    Glad you are enjoying Mastery of Meditation & Yoga. Try the following pranayamas, and do them without any straining. Build up slowly and gently.

    Anuloma Viloma Pranayama

    4 Part Breathing for Vitality

    Let me know your progress and we will take it from there. Again, no straining — most important.

  39. Rohan Jolly said,

    on January 12th, 2009 at 9:29 am

    hi,
    i was wondering if doing one breathing meditation for a period of less than 20 min on average every few days enough to eventually gain some spiritual experience or physical result out of it? should one experiment with only one meditation tehnique at a time and use it only or should one use a wide array of techniques? if one keeps ones gains from meditation, is daily practise still important? cant one do it whenever and however one wants too? too be very specific was wondering if the alternate nostril breathing technique is enough to eventually open or activate the third eye?

  40. Anmol Mehta said,

    on January 16th, 2009 at 2:43 pm

    Hi Rohan,

    Yes every little bit will help. If can build up a consistent practice, even if it’s just 20 mins it will be very beneficial.

    Usually doing a few pranayamas is a good practice.

    Yes daily practice of meditation is recommended.

    Yes Anuloma Viloma pranayama is very powerful and will open the Third eye and awaken Kundalini. I don’t suggest doing just this pranayama, but instead making sure you have a physical aspect as well, so that the body and systems can handle the energy unleashed by this exercise.

    All Good Wishes,
    Anmol

    on January 30th, 2009 at 12:34 pm

    Hi Anmol,

    Thanks so much for the videos and all the tips, they’re really great.

    I’ve only been doing kundalini yoga for a few weeks. I’ve tried a few other yoga types in the past but never really had the patients for it. With ky I felt an instant connection though, probably because of it’s more rhythmic etc.

    But I have a question I’m hoping you might be able to answer - I’ve been doing an hour/day and feel great after my yoga and it really seems to help with my normally painful pms etc, and I feel very creative, optimistic and smiley in general but I also feel like I want to go to sleep after each session! Isn’t it supposed to make me energized? I feel happy but exhausted - which in turn helps with my insomnia, but not so good to want to sleep in the daytime..

    Any thoughts on that?

    Many thanks! Loving your site:-)

    I experienced a panic attack this morning, an hour after my pranayama practice. I only had time to do bellow breaths and your arm raises exercises and a few minutes in shavasna. I had strong palpitations, shrotness of breath, panic as well as overwhelming sensations/emotions in the area of my heart chakra. What could have caused this? it was scary. Thanks

    Hi Pooja,

    Glad you are enjoying and benefiting from the website. For your heel try Forward Bending Pose with the toes pulled back. It should help rejuvenate the legs.

    Also try Downward Facing Dog, with heels pressing towards the floor to stretch the calves.

    Let me know how it goes.

    on February 18th, 2009 at 11:57 pm

    Hi Mitch,

    Are you prone to panic attacks? If not, it could be a release taking place. I would though advise you to slow down the practice and take a gentle approach, only doing as much as you can handle. Bellows breath is very powerful.

    Let me know.

    Best,
    Anmol

  51. Anmol Mehta said,

    on February 19th, 2009 at 12:00 am

    Hi Arul,

    Try doing the Yoga postures that offer resistance. This will stimulate muscle growth. Do exercises such as, Frog Pose, Chair Pose, Plank Pose (do push ups from there if you can), Bridge Pose.

    Also follow a anti-vata, pro-kapha type diet, be careful of cholesterol and excessive fat gain though.

    Anmol

  53. Anmol Mehta said,

    Namaste Amit,

    Yes you can practice Shambhavi mudra, but don’t hold it for too long. Release it often, especially if you feel any eye strain. You can continue with the meditation though, without Shambhavi mudra, with either mantra, Om Naham Shivay or AUM mantra.

    Having the room dim or dark is fine.

    I also suggest the Yoga Eye Exercises for you. Also, it is important to consult your eye doctor if your condition is severe before starting these programs. And to repeat aim for gentle, steady progress.

    Best,

    hello,
    i know the ill effects of smoking as well as anyone and an ardently against smoking. however when ever i consume hookah, i feel this strange sensation near the third eye area and find my mind more empty and the remaining thoughts more clear.
    is there an explaination for this or is this just an effect of nicotine?

    hello again,
    i recently noticed a difference between between mentally repeating a mantra and a mantra being said by something much deeper inside you, like your whole body is saying the mantra. is this a normal experience?

    also, this question concerns the effects of the third eye and the power of visualization. i agree that we can manifest thoughts into reality but after experimenting with it, my experience suggests that it is, however, better to be desireless while practising such meditations and to desire(if required) what is best for us as God( supreme being) see’s it and not desire personal whims as in the long run, our own wishes and desires dont really lead to much and we invariably regret our decision or atleast investing soo much time on something so petty.

    please comment

    thanks a lot.

    Hi Rohan,

    1. This is a narcotic affect. Agoras and Tantrics are masters on the use of such chemicals, and really in order to use them safely it is good be such a master yogi first.

    2. Mantras: Yes this is a normal experience once you are proficient with Mantra meditation. It is called the mantra singing you, instead of you singing the mantra :-).

    3. Desire: You have pretty much quoted me. You can read my thoughts on desire and the laws of intention manifestation in the following article.

    4 Keys Laws of Manifesting Desire if You Absolutely Must

    Great to have your input on the website.

    Hi Mim,

    It could be the body adjusting to the new routines and exercises. Give it some time and once your pranic / energetic body is build up, you will feel more alive afer your practice.

    Let me know you progress.

    hello again,
    i was wondering what are your views on the breath holding practises. is there any tantric or yogic angle on seeing how long one can hold ones breath?
    a study conducted many years ago suggested that by holding your breath for longer than 3 mins underwater you would permenantly increase blood flow to the brain and hence intelligence.
    this technique was practised by atleast one japanese billionare as well.
    your views?

    Hi Anmol
    My problem is probably to similar to that of Mitch(Post dated 18th Feb, 2009). When I try Kumbhaka during pranayama, after couple of hours I get a feeling as if my heart is getting constricted. This sensation is only on the left side. Also i notice that this has some connection with vayu in the body because this sensation abides when I release gas :(). I use vayu mudra to expel the gas. Have you or anyone known to you had a similar experience during the initial stages of their yoga practice?

    My second and related question is that I am doing viparita kharini. Can it be the cause of the problem? My body seems to be producing a lot of gas although me and my wife take the same kind of food.

  62. Anmol Mehta said,

    on April 7th, 2009 at 8:34 pm

    Hi Rohan,

    Breath retention is a key aspect of meditation. The most important part of it though, is that when doing yoga, it should be done gradually, and when doing meditation it should be allowed to happen spontaneously.

    Hi Anmol,

    I am a 26 year old woman and I recently came out of a bad relationship. After that I am having problem focusing on things. I want to let go and forget about the past but I just cant stop thinking about him and things that he did. I feel very angry and upset all the time. Is there any meditation/yoga practice which can help calm my anxiety?

    Thank you so much for this wonderful website.

    Hi Anmol,
    Seeing this website I feel like I can find a solution to any of my problems through yoga.. I always believe in the power of yoga and meditation. But I am not able to put it into practice… I wanted to do rapid weight loss program… I started it many times. But I was not able to do it consistently for more than a week. Please suggest me some ways to throw away this procrastination and laziness and to consistently practice yoga.

  67. Rohan Jolly said,

    i was wondering why it gets harder to meditate when you are happy than when you are sad. it seems sadness seems to be a catalyst to meditation while happiness seems to be like pouring water on a fire.
    is it just like what they say about writing; that happy people dont sit down to write?

  68. Anmol Mehta said,

    Hi Vijaya,

    Sorry to hear of your troubles. Please do the following exercises…

    1. Kapalbhati Pranayama (visualize throwing out all your negative feelings and thoughts as you do the powerful exhalation).

    In addition, think of the troubles he has caused you as repaying an old debt. So now the loop has been closed and you are free of this obligation. Try, I know it is hard, to live with the motto, “whatever comes let it come, whatever goes, let it go”, as best your can.

    Also, please read the article “True Purpose of Relationships.” I feel it would be helpful to you in understanding and getting value from your suffering.

    Let me know how it goes.

    Love & Peace,
    Anmol

    Dear Nithya,

    First focus on building your Third Chakra. this will give you immense willpower and help you see your projects through to the end.

    Search for the following 2 sets on the website…

    Core Abdominal Power Yoga Set
    Yoga Exercises to Shape Stomach.

    Both build the Third Chakra (and will benefit you in your weight loss efforts as a bonus :-).

    Let me know how it goes.

    Hi Rohan,

    Interesting thoughts. I am not sure if that has been my experience, but will certainly watch carefully to see if there is any correlation to mood with meditation practice. My motto has been to try and meditate regardless of mood. Of course this could be as I love meditation and am not driven so much be it’s results, but more so by the passion for it.

  74. gail said,

    on May 18th, 2009 at 7:51 pm

    hi anmol,
    i ordered and received a wonderful numerological report from you recently, which includes the 40 day transformational program. i also want to thank you for your links to ayurvedic websites..there are 5 products: shilajit, zyx for hair loss, obeslim, wheatgrass, and ashwagandha which will be very helpful in rebuilding my health.
    i am writing about another issue that has had me alarmed for quite some time. for at least 7 years i have had the sensation of vibration below me..whether i am sitting standing or lying down..wherever i go. sometimes it is very strong like sitting on a washing machine sometimes it is a mild vibrating sensation. sometimes i feel panic, sometimes i feel sharp pains in odd locations my spine, a muscle, my head, my chest. i actually relocated twice thinking that would put an end to it..there aren’t many people i would dare mention this to for obvious reasons..and no, i don’t believe i am losing my mind..could this be a symptom of kundalini awakening?

  75. Anmol Mehta said,

    on May 20th, 2009 at 8:53 pm

    Hi Gail,

    So glad you found the reading beneficial and thank you for the feedback.

    Peculiar you mention this vibration, etc. I have had a wide range of kundalini experiences, and the vibration, just as you are describing it, is something I have also started feeling over the past year, although not as frequently, consistently or intensely as you.

    With Kundalini symptoms, anxiety, worry and fear can become a bigger issue than the symptoms themselves, so what I always recommend is to get them checked out by a doctor so you can have your mind at ease. Often the anxiety ends up creating more problems in the body, which adds to the situation negatively.

    So get checked out, and after the doctor says it’s nothing…. believe him :-), cause we know after all it’s Kundalini awakening that is taking place, and the doctor knows very little about that :-D.

    Let me know how it goes.

    Best,
    Anmol

    Hi Kanchana,

    It takes some time for the body to adjust to Breath of Fire and also for you to master it, so it goes smoothly. Generally such pain is felt, when you are doing it with too much effort. Just practice BOF by itself as well, 1 minute a day. It will help you learn and master the technique.

    Hello Anmol, I am new to the site and just wanted to thank you for the excellent instruction. Yoga videos don’t take the time describing the exercises in near the amount of detail as this website. I haven’t found anything else quite like it and I think its categorized perfectly. I’m hoping to take some 3HO courses in the future and this will help me prepare for it. I will suggest this site to anyone interested in Kundalini Yoga.

    Hi Anmol,

    I have a problem. I made a mistake in the past. While doing it I never realised it. Even I did not think whether it is right or wrong. I just did what I liked. Now I feel very guilty. I ask myself why I did that. I have no answer. Sometimes I feel like it was not me who did that mistake. Because I was not of that character to have done that. What are the ways to come out of this guilty feeling and How can I ensure that I will not commit that mistake again ? I am not able to analyse the reason of why I did the mistake also. Please help me

    Hello Anmol,

    With reference to the comments between you and Gail above, I too have been experiencing strong vibrations especially in the lower body for the past year… I sometimes used to wonder if I have my mobile on vibrate and in my back pocket eventhough I knew it wasn’t there but I’d still check… I haven’t seen a doctor about this. Do you have any idea what this is about?

    Thank you very much for all that you do.

    Sir,

    Around 8 months back (in NOV’08)because of high bp my father(staying in India(Delhi) had multiple clotting on right side of brain because of which his left side got partial paralytical attack. He is still feeling numbness/heaviness on left side of body , he always feels that he is carrying weight with him.

    After that he had to undertake by pass surgery(in FEB’09) because of which the heaviness got increased.

    He is doing Anulom Vilom for about half and hour in morning and evening from last 10 years also.

    Is there any remedy for the same by exercise or ayurved? If yes please provide the same.

    We have tried allopathy,haemopathy,panchkarma,reiki till date but nothing is working till date.

    Hoping against the hope.

    Thanking you in anticipation.

    Dear Anmol Mehta:

    …am new to your site… are you in los angeles? if so, where….you give classes, etc.? Will peruse you site more…

    ———————–

    also, could you (or I or anyone?!) write something about the temptation for “spiritual seekers” to ignore common sense clarification of communication, misunderstandings—because it means nothing to them about “other”….

    “self” seems to too-often be the motivation here in L.A. And many of those same self-serving people are definitely into “meditation”, “yoga”, “self-help”, self-development, self-education, self-nutrition, self-advancement, self-prosperity, self-this and self-that. self-aggrandizement of spirituality, while ignoring common sense civility and grace in communication with others….

    You try to have an exchange with them…and all I hear (perhaps because of listening too well)…is all their self-interests—–just like nations do, without regard to the other nations’ interests and perspectives in communication.

    …they simply don’t communicate or recognize the “feelings” / perspectives of others. The whole society seems to be leaning this way… I’m told that potential employers don’t even send out thank yous and encouragements for applying for jobs, even in form letter! If they’re interested, they’ll call you. Live with it.

    That’s the way it is.

    Dehumanizing, ungracious, in my book.

    And I find this phenomenon in the “new age” and in phony “spirituality” movements. Mental malpractices, manipulations…. cunning cleverness cloaked in goodness.

    Yes, meditate for purity of motivations to envelop our hearts and environments?!

    Your thoughts on this….

    A last thought:
    I’m learning to ignore those who “thing” you in this thinged society…and I’ve never wanted to do business with those I do not respect or whom I feel are unethical, even if there’s ethical money to be had.

    Thank you for this site….will peruse!

  94. Anmol Mehta said,

    on August 7th, 2009 at 11:31 am

    Hi Kanchana,

    This is a complex question and below are my thoughts on this matter for you.

    1. First, there is nothing wrong with making a mistake. We all make mistakes, it is part of being human. So don’t feel bad about it and don’t worry about making mistakes in the future as well, as this will paralyze you. You have reflected on the situation and learned what you can from it, that is your responsibility.

    2. Choice is an illusion. This is a subtle topic, but reflect on the fact that we don’t know what thought is going to take place next in our mind. This thought will be based on all kinds of input coming in and it will be the basis for your reaction, and then more input, reaction, input, etc. Our responsibility is to become aware of this whole process and observe this reactionary nature of our mind. From this observation you will evolve to greater heights. So more than worrying about a specific act, devote yourself to practicing awareness of your reactions. That is the way forward.

    3. Forgive yourself and be gentle with yourself. Don’t be so hard on yourself. It is ok. To diminish the feelings of guilt, remind yourself that life is a big game and the drama of one ego in the vast expanse of time and space is so very small, so don’t get caught up in the drama. Find that which gives you great joy to do, that which you love to do, and devote yourself to it. Meditation will help you with this shift to greater awareness.

    God Bless You,
    Anmol

    Dear Anmol,

    I am doing Pranayama everday and recently i observed some vibrations in my body while exhaling breath after holding breath long time.

    First I start pranayama with bhastrika and after doing couple of kapalabhati excercises, Immediatly Iam inhaling and holding breath quite some time(Trying to hold as much as i can) and locking breath at neck and stomach. At this point while exhaling my breath through nose, I am getting vibrations in my body.

    Why i am getting vibrations in my body and what causes to get these vibrations?.

    Am I doing wrong way of pranayama or do i need to take break between each pranayama?.

    Please suggest me

    Thanks
    Ravi

  108. Anmol Mehta said,

    on November 6th, 2009 at 12:44 am

    Dear Ravi,

    Breath retention is an advanced technique. So don’t over strain when doing this aspect of pranayama. Start off with less time and build up slowly allowing your system time to get used to the greater flow of energy that pranayama creates (which is what you are feeling).

    Let me know how it goes.

    Best,
    Anmol
