Otsikko: [Enkku] Heng. harj. lämpimänä pysymiseksi, osa 1 Kirjoitti: sideman - 08.01.2012 17:32:31 Cyril Henry Hoskin'in a.k.a. Lobsang Rampa'n kirjasta Wisdom of the Ancients:
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lobsang_Rampa) Here is an exercise that enables one to keep warm in cold weather. It is something much practiced in Tibet where a lama can sit unclothed on ice, and even melt ice around him and dry off wet blankets draped around his shoulders. Here's how you do it. Sit comfortably ... and make sure that you really ARE sitting with your spine upright. You must have no tensions or pressing worries for the moment. Close your eyes, and think of yourself saying, 'OM, OM, OM', telepathically. Close your left nostril, and take us much air as you can through the right nostril. Then close the right (your thumb is the best for this because it is the most convenient), and retain the breath by pressing your chin hard against your chest, bring your chin up close to your neck. Hold your breath for a time, and then gradually exhale through the left nostril by closing the right nostril (again the thumb is easiest here). (Jatkuu...)

Careful note -- in this particular exercise one always breathes in through the right nostril, and always breathes out through the left nostril. You should do this from a start of ten breathings, during which you gradually increase the time of breath retention, up to some fifty times, but you must increase your breath retention very gradually, there is no need to rush, and while on the subject here is a little note which may free you from worry: when you have been doing it for some time, and you are doing it with deep breath retention, you may find that you perspire from the roots of the hair. That is perfectly safe, perfectly normal, and really does increase the health and cleanliness of the boy.

Nadis In addition to the seven chakras of the subtle body, the Tantras have described a network of subtle channels known as Nadis. According to the tantric treatise Shiva Samhita, there are fourteen principal nadis. Of these, Ida, Pingala and Sushumna are considered the most important. Ida is the left channel. Ida is white, feminine, cold, represents the moon and is associated with the river Ganga (Ganges). Originating in Muladhara, Ida ends up in the left nostril. Pingala is the right channel. Pingala is red, masculine, hot, represents the sun and is associated with the river Yamuna. Originating in Muladhara, Pingala ends up in the right nostril. Sushumna is the central channel and is associated with the river Saraswati. Running up the body from just below Muladhara chakra to Sahasrara chakra at the crown of the head. |
