Kundalini Yoga for Mastering the Seventh Body

For Containment

1. Sit on your left heel with your right knee up. With fingers straight, face your left hand down and place your right hand on top of your left hand. Both palms face down and are held at shoulder height. Inhale in 4-part segmented breath while you mentally chant “Sa Ta Na Ma,” one syllable with each segment of the breath. Exhale in a 4-part segmented breath while you mentally chant “Sa Ta Na Ma,” one syllable with each segment of the breath. Continue for 3 minutes.

2. Sit on your left heel with your right knee up. Bring your arms up above your head at 60º out to the sides, palms facing down. Hold this position and repeat the 4-part segmented breath and mental “Sa Ta Na Ma” chant described in the previous step. Continue for 3 minutes. Tune in to feeling contained within your aura.

3. Sit on your heels and put your hands on the ground in front of you; spread your fingers wide. Inhale in this position, then exhale and bring your forehead to the ground in front of you. Continue this “bowing” movement for 3 minutes, neutralizing any differences between earth and heaven. To end: inhale, sit up

4. Punching: Sit in easy pose. Make fists of both hands and inhale while you punch with your left hand, then exhale as your left hand comes all the way back and you punch with your right hand. Alternate punching with the left and right, powerfully inhaling left and exhaling right. Continue for 5 minutes. Feel the security of a strong aura.

5. Lie on your back and bring your knees to your chest. Wrap your arms around your knees and keep your head on the ground. Relax in this position for 3 minutes. Then stretch your legs out straight on the ground and relax for 30 seconds.

6. Lie on your back with your head on the ground. Lift both legs up to 90º and hold on to your toes. Relax your sacrum onto the ground and keep your legs straight. Continue with long deep breathing for 3 minutes. Relax your legs down onto the ground and lay flat on your back for 30 seconds. Inhale and pull your knees into your chest; wrap your arms around your knees. Rock back-and-forth on your spine a couple of times and sit in easy pose.

7. In easy pose, cross the wrists in front of the heart chakra, holding the left hand closest to the body. Chant “Sa Ta Na Ma,” and touch the fingertips in the traditional Kirtan Kriya movement: on “Sa” touch your index fingertips to your thumbs with about 5 pounds of pressure, on “Ta” touch your middle fingertips to your thumbs, on “Na” touch your ring fingertips to your thumbs and on “Ma” touch your pinky fingertips to your thumbs. Continue for 5 minutes.

8. Sit in easy pose. With your hands resting on your knees, in the Kirtan Kriya manner just described, touch your opposing fingertips to your thumbs as you chant this mantra: “Ra Ra Ra Ra, Ma Ma Ma Ma, Sa Ta Na Ma.” Continue for 5 minutes.

9. Sit in easy pose and lock the tips of your front teeth together. Look at the tip of your nose. Breathing through your mouth, inhale through the teeth in 4-part segmented breath as you mentally repeat “Sa Ta Na Ma,” then exhale through the teeth in 4-part segmented breath as you mentally repeat the mantra “Sa Ta Na Ma.” Continue this for 5 minutes.

10. Long Deep Relaxation: Feel your aura, bright and beautiful, extending 9 feet around you. Feel secure and contained within your aura. As you relax, focus on the following affirmation: “I dwell comfortably within my true self and feel the security and safety of my own identity. I am loving and merciful with myself and all other beings.”

Meditation for Mastering the Seventh Body

Balancing the Protective Shield and Container of the True Self

Sit in easy pose and focus at the third eye. Extend your right arm out in front of you at a 60º angle, palm facing down. Your left arm is extended behind you at 60 with the palm facing up. Chant "Ong" and close your fingers into your palms, then chant "Sohung" as you open your fingers up. Continue for 1 minute. Reverse the arm position with your left arm in front and your right arm back. Continue for 1 minute.

Repeat reversing the arm position and continuing the open/ close movement for 1 minute 4 additional times.

To end: relax your hands on your knees in GM. Inhale with your chin in and chest out; roll your eyes up internally, looking at the third eye, and imagine you are completely self-contained and balanced within your strong aura.

Comments: This meditation takes 6 minutes total. Do this whenever you feel scattered; it will balance and contain you. For mastering the aura, practice this twice per day. A strong aura provides containment, which creates a sanctuary for you and others.
