Kundalini Yoga and Self Empowerment!!

The reason I decided to finish high school in India was so I could learn Kundalini Yoga and share it with the activist community in Portland, so we would be able to be as proactive and productive as possible. The most powerful tool that we have is ourselves. Kundalini Yoga is called the yoga of awareness, because it helps us be intuitively aware of ourselves and the world around us. It is a technology that can help us tap into the deepest power, to be prosperous, couragous, and to be able to keep up. In the age of Pisces, we were taught to look outside of ourselves for answers, for help, for health, for God. In the age of Aquarius we are to recognize that there is no separation between the creator and the creation, we are all one. "If you can't see God in All, you can't see God at all."-YB
In the mean time, we need to all work to make the transition to the Aquarian age as smooth and peaceful as possible. That is where Kundalini Yoga comes in. We don't have to wait to be our truest, most compassionate, uplifting self, we can be those things now. This may come more easily to some than others, but we can all take simple steps to make sure our organs and glands work properly, in order to have balanced blood chemistry, so we can be health, happy, and holy. Look no further than doing Breath of Fire, or Sat Kriya.
Kundalini yoga is the yoga of the householder, for people living in society to make it better. I know lots of activists come to a place of being burned out, there are actually specific kriyas to prevent burnout. Whatever ailment you may have, or skill you want to develop, there is most likely a kriya or meditation that you can do that focuses on it directly.
So get out there and take care of yourself, so that you can serve the world around you to the best of your ability.
