The most powerful yoga is known as the Kundalini Yoga. It is powerful that it was called the mother of all the Styles of Yoga. This type of yoga awakens the base of our spine which is known as the Muladhara Chakra.
The word Kundalini was derived from kunda which means “pot”. Kundalini Sadhna is described to be the coiled energy that looks like a serpent which has three and a half coils which are resting at the bottom of the spine. The three coils in Kundalini Yoga are known as the three Gunas which are the Sattva, Rajas, Tamas. The VIkritis represent the half coil.
In anatomy, the kundalini is found in the perineum region of our body. For the males, it is found between the testicles and the rectum. For the female, it is found between the clitoris and the vagina.
Kundalini Yoga is also known as the symbol of equality and power for both genders. The masculine power is known to be Siva and Sakti for the females. They become the elemental source of power and energy when they are united. The union of Siva and Sakti occurs in the brain which gives us the sense of feeling and affection, energy, love. This means Kundalini Yoga is good to eliminate the feeling of sorrow, depression, anger and jealousy.
Kundalini Yoga gives reward to Yogis who maintain unity awareness and spiritual transformation. The Kundalini produces a hissing sound when it is awakened. It sounds just like a beaten serpent as it goes from the Muladhara Chakra to the Brahma Nadi and to the Sahasrara Chakra.
In the year 1969, Yogi Bhajan introduced Kundalini Yoga. It includes the practices of the common Mantra, meditation, chanting, breathing and the classic poses. This type of yoga actually focuses more on chanting and breathing. It does not really concentrate in the Kundalini Yoga Poses alone.
If you are curious about Kundalini Yoga, it is good to know the path it takes. One thing you need to understand is the Nervous System and the Spinal Cord. These two are the main focus of Kundalini Yoga. It targets your Spinal Cord and the Nervous System.
The Nervous System as we all know is the main control or the center of our body. The Nervous System is responsible for the imaginations, thoughts, intelligence and memory that we have. The Nervous System composes of the brain, the nerves and most especially the Spinal Cord which gives us posture and stand. The Spinal Cord is made up of delicate nerves and tissues that is why we need to take care of it. Kundalini Yoga will be the most appropriate practice for this.
The infamous Kundalini awakening is not that easy to learn. It is also something that we can find or learn in books. If there was, you might be confused or perplexed in learning the process. If you want to master Kundalini awakening, it should be based on experience. After series of trials and sessions, you will find out that Kundalini awakening took place and it was all because you were just too eager and concentrated to learn it.
Now what you have to do is grab that amazing concentration and start working on your Nervous System and Spinal Cord. If you want to stay healthy and maintain a good posture, Kundalini Yoga is just waiting for you to practice it.

The Evolution of Kriya Yoga
Kriya Yoga is a process of mental purification that teaches meditation through
techniques.
The fundamental belief of Kriya Yoga is that all of us are miniature version of the
whole cosmos, a microcosm or an evolution of a new world within the microcosmic
world.
The followers of Kriya yoga also believes that the most holy supreme creator is a
part of us hiding beneath our body, and activating every action through the breath.
The name Kriya is meant as any work “kri” is being done by the power of the
indwelling soul “ya”.
The different cosmic forces controlling, air, fire, water and earth also controls the
different activities that we do, namely, religious activities, relationship with everyone
and everything, food, pregnancy, and everything performed by the human body.
Yoga on the other hand is the conjoining of these correspondences between
microcosms and macrocosms. It is the full acceptance and belief behind the union
and interaction of the individual self and the supreme self.
The study and science of Kriya yoga has a divine origin and was not created by
human means and intellect.
The modernization for this ancient yoga meditation method has begun in the 1860’s
with Babaji and has been handed down to the present Kriya yoga lineage of masters
directly through the Master to disciple method of teaching.
The disciplined path of Kriya Yoga consists of many different kinds of teaching with
different angles to it. One looks at it as a process of beginning with self introspection
through breathing controls.
It is also believed in Kriya yoga that that by enlightening the three qualities of light,
vibration and sound simultaneously with proper concentration, posture and breathing
through application of a series of techniques, a Kriya yoga disciple is able to
penetrate the deepest levels of the unconscious mind.
Through this they can communicate with their inner gods and obtain a fulfilling
calmness within them.
The process of purification is attained through diligent practice. The first thing to do
is have the mind calmed and freed from any internal chatter by developing the
practice of feeble breathing.
Then secondly the very process of observation of pulse rhythm and vibrations in the body enables the
seeker to extract the bondage of subtle desires
A deeper understanding of the triple divine qualities leads to a chiseled concentration
or a focused mind, therefore preparing the seeker to explore thoughtlessness and
inner truth.
All people are mired in the delusion and illusion due to the duality of creation. We are
seeking liberation from the phenomenal suffering due to the miseries from
ignorance, desire and faulty actions. One should be able to realize that the supreme
creator is hiding within and as a self of all beings.
Kriya Yoga provides us with the easiest ways to unfold this lurking truth and unravel
the deepest mysteries of godhood from within us.
Kriya yoga teaches breath control and calmness and it aims for well self realization
within one lifetime.
Kriya yoga is a non-sectarian group and teaches that work is worship and whatever
you do is from and for the Supreme Being and creator. It teaches about the different
beliefs of the origin, destiny and evolution of souls.
A Kriya Yoga disciple believes in direct and immediate spiritual experience and is only
taught through direct contact with the teacher.
