Practice 1: Chakra meditation<br />

Make yourself comfortable in a meditative asana, preferably siddhasana or siddha<br />

yoni asana. Place both hands on the knees in chin mudra ( palms facing upward, thumbs<br />

and forefingers together). Close your eyes and make the body steady throughout. The<br />

spinal column should be absolutely upright and straight, with the back and shoulders fully<br />

relaxed. The head should be poised comfortably on top of the spinal column. The whole<br />

body is completely relaxed and immobile. It is motionless like a statue. Maintain absolute<br />

awareness of the physical body for several minutes. Become aware of the spinal<br />

column. Now bring your awareness to ajna chakra.<br />

Ajna chakra is located inside the brain at a point directly behind the eyebrow center<br />

and on top of the spinal column, where the pineal gland is situated. Try to discover a<br />

pulsation within this ajna chakra region. Be absolutely aware of this pulsation.Now<br />

synchronize the mantra Оm with the pulsation in the ajna chakra region. Оm, Оm, Оm,<br />

Оm, Оm, should be the form of your awareness with the pulsation of ajna chakra. Count<br />

the pulsation 21 times. Now begin to practise ashwini mudra. Do not be concerned with<br />

ajna chakra, only practise ashwini mudra - contraction and relaxation of the anus. It<br />

should be practised at a medium speed - neither too quickly nor too slowly. After<br />

practising like this for a few sessions, you should be able to feel the center of ajna<br />

automatically while performing ashwini. When that happens you can begin to concentrate<br />

directly on ajna. Until then, go on with ashwini mudra for about 4 minutes. Now bring<br />

your awareness to the perineal region and the psychic center of mooladhara chakra.<br />

Discover the precise psychic point of mooladhara chakra. Now try to discover a subtle<br />

pulsation there. Localize the pulsation very precisely in the mooladhara region and count<br />

21 pulsations.<br />

Now open your eyes and adopt nasikagra drishti; gazing at the nosetip. Do not be<br />

concerned with mooladhara chakra, but only with nosetip awareness. The simultaneous<br />

awareness of mooladhara chakra will come after some time. Continue this practice for 3<br />

minutes. Now bring your awareness to swadhisthana chakra in the region of the tail<br />

bone. Discover the psychic point of swadhisthana chakra. Try to discover the pulsation in
