To Master Your Domain Kundalini Kriya rekindles thoughts of starting Kundalini again!
This morning I just didn’t feel like doing a 20-30 minute dance-cardio workout. Instead I decided to do an old Kundalini Kriya. The Kriya that I chose was “To Master Your Domain”.
I haven’t done any Kundalini yoga for a long while. Many years ago Kundalini was the main form of yoga that I did. Kundalini is different from many other forms of yoga,at least in my opinion, in that the Kriya are more physically challenging.Additionally there is more recitation of mantras and meditation. It was the recitation of the mantras that we’re in Punjabi that led me to the Sikh religion. Sikh’s believe that there is one God and that all religions are just pathways to that one God.
From Wikipedia….
The fundamental beliefs of Sikhism, articulated in the sacred scripture Guru Granth Sahib, include faith and meditation on the name of the one creator, divine unity and equality of all humankind, engaging in selfless service, striving for justice for the benefit and prosperity of all, and honest conduct.

Many of the tenets of Sikhism are the way I live my life. And really that is what Kundalini Yoga and Sikhism are a way of life. When I was practicing Kundalini I became a vegetarian. I also did a lot more meditating and exercises that focused on my breathing. Overall it was a good experience and one that I should probably revisit.
While I am not really a full vegetarian I haven’t been eating a lot of meat. I do eat pork chops and occasionally dishes that include chicken. Lately I have been eating a lot of Indian vegetarian dishes for lunch and dinners more often than not are some type of fish, mashed cauliflower or sweet potatoes and a vegetable.
A Possible Schedule to Incorporate Kundalini into Workout Schedule
I guess the question is where or when can I get Kundalini kriyas into my exercise routines. Maybe a schedule that looks something like this…..
Monday (Target) – Hatha Yoga in AM Kundalini in afternoon Night Hatha Yoga
Tuesday: Morning: Dance-Cardio (20 Min) – Run – Night:Yoga
Wednesday: Dance Cardio (30-40 min) Early PM: Kundalini Late PM: HathaYoga
