Raja Yoga - Part - II
Hinduism
has six great separate works called the Six
Shastras. One among this is called the Yoga
Shastra and in it the Raja Yoga is explained
for practice. The same concept in small doses
are given in two other books. One is the explanation
of the Godess Devi, the book called Devi Mahathmiyam
and another one is the book in praise of and
salutation to Godess Lalitha Ambika in Lallitha
Sasaranamam and in Lalitha Trishadi.
In
the first book, the Kundalini Yoga is named
"Shri Vidya Mahayagakrama Yoga". This
is similar to the performance of the Chandika
Homam which is performed for the benefit of
the public in a symbolic way for the outerworld.
The same practioneer's inner creative yoga is
called Shri Vidya Mahayagakrama Yoga. The practioneer
of Chandika Homam can have a separate Guru to
teach Kundalini Yoga. These two have separate
instructions.
As
mentioned, the Sushumna Nadi travels from the
bottom of the spinal cord upto the centre of
the skull. It is important to direct the creative
oxygen (Prana) through the nostrils and directed
upwards from the bottom. The Sushumna Nadi passes
through eight places. These are :
- From the bottom of Anus
termed Mooladhara
- The creative organ of
the human body termed Swadistanam
- The navel portion termed
Manipooragam
- The hallow part of the
chest portion termed Anahatam
- The Adams Apple termed
Visuddhi
- The centre point of the
two eye brows termed Aagnya Chakra
