Каждый день недели наделен своей энергией. В астрологии это символизируется посредством ассоциации каждого дня недели с определенной планетой. Упражнения для ежедневной садханы могут выбираться в соответствии с этими энергиями: успокаивающая пранояма в понедельник; набхи крия (крия для Пупочного Центра) во вторник; упражнения очищающие мозг в среду; глубокая медитация в четверг; комплекс на трансформацию сексуальной энергии в пятницу; крия на мощное физическое очищение в субботу; и проецирующая благость медитация Лайя Йоги в воскресенье.
В конце концов вы все же должны использовать собственные ощущения, что бы решить, на какой вид энергии ориентироватся в упражнениях, или же вы можете руководствоваться следующей таблицей.

'How does it work?'.. he asked.
The saint said "let us try an experiment. Here is a strainer, and here is some water, and pour a bucket of water through the strainer. " The child did this and said " see the water was not contained, it just passed through, my mind is just like this". The saint said. " Do it once more" , he did, and still the water passed through the strainer. The saint said. " Do it ten times at least". The child did, and at the end of this experiment, he said " See water still passes through, no matter how many times , and how many buckets we pass through it" . The saint said. " Look carefully at the strainer and see if there is any thing different." The child did, and his eyes were filled with tears, and he said. "Yes, i see the differnce now, the grimy dirty strainer is now shiny and bright, like never before.
The saint said. " My son, this is what Gurbani does for you, it cleans your mind, and even if you do not realize it, it slowly cleanses your mind, and protects you from the five vices. The more you recite Gurbani, your mind will not only become shinier, but become like the bucket itself, which will not only become clean , but hold the meaning of Gurbani in your heart"
The child smiled, and felt he had received the best example of the power of Gurbani.

Science & Faith is One..
'The most beautiful emotion we can experience is the mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion that stands at the cradle of all true art and science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead, a snuffed-out candle. To sense that behind anything that can be experienced there is something that our minds cannot grasp, whose beauty and sublimity reaches us only indirectly: this is religiousness. In this sense only, I am a devoutly religious man'.. - Albert Einstein
Baba Virsa Singh -
'Dharam is the greatest science. Hundreds and in some cases thousands of years ago, visionaries revealed to us what scientists are just now heralding as their latest discovery. The visionaries simply closed their eyes, sat comfortably in meditation, and described what they saw. They did not have to spend huge sums on research or waste battery cell power. We human beings have many powerful brain cells. Once they are developed through meditation we can observe the entire universe—from the microscopic to the vast expanse of the cosmos.
What is meditation? concentrating on something, researching it, looking deeply into it, until you reach a conclusion. Whether you are conducting scientific research or meditating and having visions, both are a matter of inner concentration.
The stronger and clearer your mind, and the more you are able to focus your thoughts, the better scientist you will become. Likewise, the clearer your mind and the greater your power of concentration, the better saint you will become. Worry, fear, and pressure should not enter, for they will torture your mind. In reality, meditation is our mind's defense. It keeps out the bad and develops the good.
Actually, scientists are only proving what has already been revealed. Our country's ancient religious texts had already told us that some stars are so far away that it will take tens of millions of years for their rays to reach the earth. Five hundred years ago, while in meditation, Guru Nanak once said, 'This sun you see is not the only sun—there are tens of millions of suns. This moon is not the only moon—there are tens of millions of such bodies.' When you see that celestial drama, you begin to think about this earthly drama in which we live. This is just a tiny speck in the vastness of the cosmos.
Sometimes a scientist becomes worried when the parts of his research do not fit together. At that point, he needs the help of an enlightened one to share his store of knowledge and clear the obstruction in the scientist's mind. Then his research can move ahead. The scientist knows about the elements, but sometimes they may confuse him. Inner spiritual knowledge will never confuse a person.
Unfortunately, though the fields of the scientist and the saint are related, they never collaborate. The scientist feels, 'I am so learned, why should I sit with an illiterate person?' For his part, the saint feels, 'The scientist is an atheist. What have I to do with him?' Where there is dharam, oceans and oceans of knowledge have coalesced. It is our misfortune that we have not been able to explain dharam in a way that scientists could understand.
Both the scientist and the saint are studying the universe. The scientist studies its components; the saint studies the One who made them. But both conclude that no matter how much they have discovered, there is still endless vastness beyond. When the scientist and the saint ultimately sit together, the knowledge of the universe will increase, and humanity will benefit greatly. Then the scientist will start believing in God; the saint already does so '.

The Unstruck Melody
by Mata Mandir Singh
The word Naad simply means sound. The word Yoga means union or “to yoke.” Union with sound is the goal of Naad Yoga. To understand what that means we have to think about the nature of sound itself.
In yogic terminology there are two kinds of sounds in the Universe, Ahad sounds and Anahad sounds. Ahad sounds are sounds created by something striking something else. If I pluck the “A” string of my guitar, it will vibrate 440 times per second, creating a vibration in the surrounding air that transfers that exact vibratory rate into the surrounding environment. That is an Ahad sound. The wind blowing through the trees, the breath striking the vocal chords and mouth—these are Ahad sounds. Ahad sound vibration must travel through matter, because these sound vibrations are transmitted through the movement of molecular structures.
Anahad literally means the un-struck melody. In yogic cosmology and science it is said that the Universe is made of sound. All matter is vibrating at certain frequencies. Rocks and stones have a very slow and low frequency. Color and light have a high frequency and can travel through the vacuum of space. Beyond all physical phenomena and matter is the primal creative sound vibration that began the creation. In Christianity it is called The Word. Sikhs call it the Naad. It is what scientists call “Cosmic radiation”—the constantly creative sound left over from the Big Bang. Yogis call it Anahad. Whatever one calls it, it is constantly vibrating, creating, and expanding the Universe—infinitely, endlessly.
Beyond the mind’s ability to grasp, one can only surrender to hear the Anahad sound and contemplate it with wonder. As Guru Nanak, the first Sikh Guru, said, Keeta Pasao, eko kavao, tis teh hoe lakh dhariou. Kuderat kavan kahaa veechar varia na javai ek vaar, which means: “One gesture and one Word, and the ten thousand rivers of life began to flow. How can I speak or reflect on this power?”
Designed for Sound
Guru Amar Das (the third Sikh Guru) says in the Anand Sahib
(Song of Bliss):
Oh my ears, you were meant to hear only the True Name,
And for this reason were you given to a man—that
You might hear the Word (anahat),
Which having heard, the mind and body blossom forth,
And the tongue is filled with the nectar Name.
The human body is designed for Naad Yoga. The ears are designed to carry the exact pattern and frequency of sound vibration which is funneled through the outer ear and strikes the eardrum, creating a perfect replica of that vibratory rate and frequency. This vibration is then transferred to the three bones of the inner ear, and then to the inner ear canal and its mechanism, and then directly to the neuro-endocrine systemsof the brain and physical body. By meditating deeply (sunia) on the primal sounds—sacred mantra and poetry (Gurbani), we can experience a profound awakening of human potential.
The interplay of the tongue on the meridian points of the upper palate and the action of the lips, nose, throat, and the air passages of the body are directly linked to chemical and hormonal secretions in the brain and glandular system. Through sound, speech, chanting, singing—communication—we can directly and scientifically affect our own level of consciousness,as well as our physical health and well-being and that of others.
One time in my early stages of yoga practice, I was in a very unbalanced state of mind. It was a stage of complete doubt called Shakti Pad. In those days we would have said simply that I was “freaking out.” I had an opportunity to speak with my spiritual teacher, Yogi Bhajan, about it. He was in town leading a White Tantric Yoga course, which I did not attend, and he asked where I was. “He is freaking out,” my friends told him. “Get him,” he said. They were able to find me at work and I pulled myself together and hastened in to see him. “What is happening?” he asked. I told him, “Sir, I am in total doubt and cannot meditate or do yoga.” He looked at me and said, “All the planets, moons, stars, and solar systems are revolving in cycles and patterns in a perfect rhythm and harmony. Just take up any of your instruments and play melodic rhythmic patterns on them and you will come into balance and harmony.” He then told me that as a teenager in India he used to practice a martial art called Gatka, and that he was always getting hit on the head by his opponents during practice. His teacher told him to study tabla (Indian drum) and that by mastering rhythm, he would master the art of fighting. Yogiji then sent me to Punjab, India, and suggested that I study Gatka, tabla, and kirtan (singing divine poetry), which I did, and I’ve been grateful ever since for that opportunity.
That very complete study of rhythm called Taal, as well as the study of melody called Raag, is another very important component of Naad Yoga. Together they make up what we know as music. The power of music to heal has been well documented in recent years, as well as illustrated in the Bible in the famous story of David healing King Solomon with the music of the harp. The ancient seers of India understood this power to transform, and it was common for mantra and scriptures to be sung, as a way to increase their meditative power.
Sympathetic Sound
For a moment imagine the human body as a musical instrument, especially one of the Indian instruments like the Sitar or Sarangi, which have playing strings that are struck or bowed, and also have 40-odd strings which are never played but are sympathetic strings. When the playing strings are struck, they set up vibratory frequencies that begin to sound the finely tuned but un-struck sympathetic strings. These strings pick up the frequency and vibratory rates of the struck notes and begin to sound and create incredible overtones without being physically touched. It is this design that gives these instruments their unique and meditative sound.
The human organism has a similar design. In Yogic terms, we have the central pranic energy channel (shushmana)corresponding to the spinal column. To either side of it are the ida and pingala, the energies of the sun and moon. Think of these as the playing strings. These energy channels then connect with 72,000 nadis (energy channels) loosely corresponding to the nervous system, that extend throughout the body. Think of these as the sympathetic strings. Whatever we vibrate in the shushmana begins to set up a sympathetic vibration in the ida and pingala and throughout the nadis that transfer that vibration to all the cells of the body. If we are unconscious in our speech and what we are vibrating, we can set up waves of negativity, self-doubt, and disharmony. These things lead to a deteriorating state of health and wellbeing. On the other hand, we can consciously choose mantra, scripture, harmonious communication, and musical sounds that elevate, heal, and balance us. Naad Yoga is the practice and experience of all this on a very practical and scientific level of self-exploration.
Each Jap, or repetition, of these sacred sounds brushes off alayer of unreality that causes us to falsely identify with theego, and opens up our inner channels to the Divine energy of God. It is a question of awareness, brain chemistry, vibratory rates and frequencies, and the Grace of God.
the Aquarian world..
Yogic science teaches that it takes 40 days to create or change a habit. A 40-day commitment to a practice can provide the shift needed to develop a healthy habit or to drop a destructive habit. In yogic terms, a sadhana is a daily personal practice. It is something you do every day for your own upliftment and expansion. It is a practice of connecting to your intention in a focused and conscious way. A good way to get into the sadhana habit is to start with a 40-day practice.
Doing something every day for 40 days is demanding. It is difficult. And you can do it! A 40-day practice gives you the experience of discipline the experience that you can go through life's challenges and create the change you desire.
There will be days when you don't want to keep going. But as Yogi Bhajan, the Master Teacher of Kundalini Yoga, always said, "Keep up and you will be kept up!" Keep going and, at the end, you will have truly accomplished something. To support your growth and change many also find it helpful to journal during the 40 days of transformation.
Our 40-day sadhana gift to you is to invite you to join us in doing the Har Aerobic Kriya for a minimum of 5 minutes every day for the next 40 days. Start today and you will bring new healthy habits into the new year.
This kriya is a great antidote to depression, fear, and anxiety as well as a fabulous cardiovascular workout. When it was originally taught it was done for 62 minutes per day so you can build up to that time if you wish. 5 minutes will give you a great start! As always, tune in to what is right for you and grow from there.
Har Aerobic Kriya
After tuning in with the Adi Mantra, come standing with the feet hip distance apart.
1. Bring your arms straight up overhead and clap your hands together 8 times as you chant Har with each clap.
2. Bend from the hips and slap the ground 8 times chanting Har with each slap.
3. Bring your arms out to your side parallel to the ground with the palms facing down. The arm movement is about one foot above and below the midline. Flap your arms up and down 8 times chanting Har.
4. With your arms straight out to the sides you will jump and cross your arms in front of you and your legs at the same time-in a criss-cross jumping jack motion. Chant Har as your limbs cross and chant Har as they open. Complete this motion eight times chanting Har. (For those with knee problems, do the arm leg crossing without jumping.)
5. Now come into Archer Pose with your right leg forward and left leg back, pulsing forward and back, chanting Har each time you bend forward eight times.
6. Switch sides and do Archer Pose with your left leg forward and right leg back, pulsing forward and back, chanting Har each time you bend forward eight times.
7. Repeat exercise #4
8. Stand straight with your arms straight up overhead. Then lean back arching your back, and pulse backwards eight times chanting Har.
9. Repeat exercise #4
10. Stand straight with your arms straight up overhead. Then bend to your right side pulsing up and down for four times chanting Har. Then bend to your left side pulsing up and down for four times chanting Har.
11. Repeat exercise #4
Repeat the entire sequence over and over again.
