Sound is not something that you can hold with your hand but when you push air forcefully enough, it moves in a rhythmic pattern that our ears hear as sound. Atoms buzz and swirl so fast that our eyes perceive them as solid matter when, in fact, they are just tiny buzzing particles.Īnd sound vibrates too. Energy itself is a sort of vibration and we can see it (and measure) it even at the atomic level. They are sort of like a primal vibration, at the very core of our existence.Įverything in this world has a vibration. It is this state of connectedness that we recognize as Divine Truth, self-knowledge, higher consciousness, or WHATEVER term that describes meditative bliss.
It’s like a mantra meditation that connects the mind, body, and spirit as one. The Adi Mantra sets the tone for your yoga practice. So I want to break it down for you here so that you know exactly what you’re chanting the Adi mantra at the beginning of each Kundalini yoga session.

It’s an incredibly powerful mantra that helps us connect with and refine the divine flow of infinite creative energy, both in ourselves and the reality around us.īut I was doing Kundalini Yoga for years before anyone ever really explained what this meant or how to do it properly! Kundalini may be one of the lesser-known strands of yoga, but it has the same origins as the more familiar styles such as Hatha and Raja, being inspired by the Indian philosophies of Tantra and Shaktism.Whether you’re just beginning your Kundalini yoga practice or you’ve been a Kundalini practitioner for many years, you’ll notice that every class begins by chanting the Adi mantra, ong namo guru dev namo. In offering our introduction to Kundalini yoga retreat (November 19-26, 2016) here at Azulfit in Fuerteventura, we aim to demystify this ancient tradition, and share through experience, some of the building blocks to awakening physical vitality and greater awareness.įor hundreds of years the teachings of Kundalini yoga remained veiled in secrecy until a young rebel master, Yogi Bhajan, followed his calling and brought its message to the West. Bhajan arrived in the US in 1968, and breaking centuries old taboos began teaching Kundalini publically, offering the ‘hippy’ movement of the time an alternative, spiritual path to higher consciousness. The Yogi knew that the most effective way to heal people’s bodies and their minds was through real experience- giving them the power to affect real change. The Adi Mantra – Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo- typically opens the class, and is loosely translated as “I bow to the divine wisdom within.” Bhajan went on to establish 3HO the Healthy, Happy, Holy Organization, as well as the Kundalini Yoga Institute, promoting physical wellbeing and spiritual awareness for the masses. Within a class you can expect to try a number of different yogic breathing techniques, which help to calm the mind, cleanse the respiratory system and bring awareness to the Prana Shakti.
The Kriyas include specific asana postures, breath and sounds, which work together holistically on the body, mind and spirit.
