You donвЂ™t reallyВ need to be a Hatha Yogi to understandВ the simple fact that if Bhastrika pranayama generates lots of energy in the body we should have clean and strong energy channels (pipes) or else we would beВ creatingВ havoc in there.В And the only way to cleanse and strengthen your energy channels is Nadishodhan as per Vedic literature. There is clear warning about this not be attempted before mastering other lower pranayamas and Nadishodhan. The only modification which has beenВ infused inВ byВ Shri Ravishankar in this is taking help of bodily movementsВ which forcibly increases your lung capacity plusВ associating itВ with guiding sound of вЂњSoh hhumm.вЂќ Bhastrika Pranayama is the highest degree of Pranayama of Hatha Yoga and is used for raising the вЂ KundaliniвЂ™ in the вЂShushumna NadiвЂќ. Sudarshan Kriya, dominantly involves Bhastrika Pranayama. Interested people may like to read more about it,В you mayВ go through some other such articles here. On the cost of being repititive I would once again like to submit to people, who are interested in yoga or other suchВ practices thatВ they educate themselves and show discretionВ in adopting anything in their routine as harms associated with such practices are paramount with almost negligible changes of complete restoration of normalcy once affected. Through this post, I must tellВ my friends and followers that I keep receiving mails and feedback personally from people, many of themВ without quoting what exact practice they haveВ been indulged inВ after reading my posts on Pranayama but such honest admission is rare. It would definitely help people reconsider their urge to run into trouble of taking such initiations.

thank you.Д«eloved Amy, It is sheer display of courage andВ benevolent spiritВ that you have confessed having harmed by SudarshanВ Kriya practice publically. I am having the same issues as asked by the questionerвЂ¦i want to know that can i take ashwagandharisht in place of the brahmi herb.and if yes then for how long. Was a big mistake to have done the Art of Living course. After reading your article I am glad am not the only one. I am in a worse kind of state and after the kriya my hand shivers for a good 5 minutes.

I do drink over 2 litres of water a day which they say is necessary while one practices. I started to feel depressed and negative all over again. I stopped the kriya and started it after a few days. I also felt negative and low all evening. The second day I had a strong fainting feeling after I completed the Kriya and had to sit up. I was looking for answers about SK as I recently did a 3 day short course on it. Thanks AD for having posted this article. Please let me know what I need to do to recover completly. I stopped practising SK almost a month ago. Lack of interest in life, No enthusiasm, always depressed.L ow energy.

Intellectual disability вЂ“ Could not comprehend or respond to anything. I was practising Art of livingвЂ™s Sudarshan Kriya for 12yrs, without giving even a dayвЂ™s gap.
