Within every human being lies a divine energy called Kundalini. In Japanese it is called as 'Ki' and in Chinese 'Chi'. The scriptures of Christianity call it 'Holy Spirit'. Dwelling at the center of the body, at the base of the spine (MulaDhara) she controls and maintains our whole physiological system through the network of 72,000 channels. The Kundalini is like a 3½-coiled serpent around the'Lingo', with her tail in her mouth, looking downwards.

The Brahma Granthi is located below the navel, which is filled with Prana Vayu (life force). From that a flame called JadarAgni keeps on burning in a living body (Pachaka Pitta). According to Nada Yoga (music) when the Prana Vayu touches this flame Nada (sound) is produced.The 2nd knot Vishnu Granthi, is located in the area of the Anahata Chakra.
The 3rd knot Rudra Granthi is between the two eyes

The deepest law of astrology was born in India. To make the astrological calculations mathematics was invented. The science of palmistry, numerology, gemology, vasthu etc are its various branches. It is found that illness and epidemics are somehow connected with stars.The life of an individual is guided by the position and intensity of stars at the time of birth. Accordingly his constitution falls under the combination of Vatha, Pitta and Kapha which determines their health, disease and death. The moon plays a vital role in Ayurveda. A study shows that all great Rishis, Sages, Buddha, Mahavir etc were enlightened on a full moon day. Moon is the factor mind, intellect and medicine, where sun is the diagnostic factor. Eclipse is excellent for spiritual practices because their gravitational effect multiply its result. In my own experience I have seen that by reading pulse we could say the intensity of the planets in an individual, which cause diseases.

We are in a very wrong notion about astrology. Astrology is not a science which is used to predict an individual’s birth, wealth, marriage, disease and death. These are non-essential astrology because of which astrology lost its reputation. When one can distinguish essential from non-essential, astrology becomes a tool. Everything on the earth is burn out of earth, and the earth is burn out of sun, which is in turn connected with very large suns in the universe. So what so ever happens on the core of the sun will vibrate and spread through out and within ones’ being through each cell and nerve. We are one family on this planet. So there is no need to live in ego and pride. Therefore the heaviest blow of astrology is upon ego. If astrology is right then ego is wrong. When one can understand the true essence of astrology then it is very clear that there is a huge flow of forces in which one is only a small ripple. If the knowledge of this can melt our pride and disintegrate our ego then it becomes religion and opens the door to bliss.

When the Kundalini pierces these knots, the Yogi experiences 10 kinds of sounds like (1) Chini – the chirping of birds. (2) Chinchini – the sound of crickets, (3) Mani Nada – the sound of bells, (4) Shankia Nada – the sound of conch, (5) Standri Nada – the sound of string instrument (Indian Lute), (6) Stala Nada – Jalar sound, (7) Venu Nada – the sound of flute, (8) Bhari Nada – the sound of drums, (9) Mrudanga Nada – sound of barrel drum, (10) Magha Nada – the sound of thunder. It is said that the experience of each individual will be slightly different. There are 108 gathis (modes) of sound that is 1+8 = 9 the nine spinal energy centers of the body. When the Kundalini reaches the top of her course, the Yogi hears only one sound the great sound ‘OM’.

When the Yogi experiences these sounds, the soul of the Yogi will be transformed to Shakti Swarupa, Sarvavyapi, Sarvajothi, Shudda, Buddha, Nethya, Neranjana, Santha and Sadha Shiva. The basic of all Indian musical instruments are formulated by hearing these 10 sounds. That is why before starting any Tantric Pooja the “Ghanda Nada” is produced, for stimulating the Chini and Chinchini.

The musical compositions originated in temples, which later on developed else where as specific art. Disease and death are determined by particular sound waves. The uniqueness of the Sanskrit language is because of its ‘phonetic’ and not ‘linguistic’; here the emphasis is more on sound than on word. That is why; the great masters passed their knowledge by word of mouth rather than in writing. That is why for thousands of years they were against writing down the scriptures. Hence they were known as Shrutis (meaning that which is learned by listening). There are various parts of Vedic lore where no meaning could be deciphered. Like the Mantra OM – but it has a sound based impact, which creates a specific effect. Due to the same reason the Mantra is always been recited by the Guru (master) in the disciples ear.

Music is the manifestation of sound and sound exists where ever there is energy which generates heat means light. The whole purpose of Nada Yoga is to stimulate your consciousness so that the Kundalini can be triggered up. In Nada Yoga, the Yogi worships the absolute as Nada Bhrama or the sound OM. If you follow this practice, to its conclusion you will finally see that you and the universe are not different one in all-all in one; which is the meaning of Vedic verses like Ahambrahmasmi, Tattvamasi, Ayamatm Brahma, Prajnanam Brahma.

The Chakras are the centers of activity of the subtle vital force termed subtle Prana. They are interrelated with the parasympathetic, sympathetic and autonomous nervous system, and thus the gross body is related to them. In general there are 6 Chakras, but some schools of thought explains about 10 Chakras. Each Chakra has got specific number of lotus petals, the petal has got a sound, a quality, a Mantra, etc.

Astrologically each Chakra has got a ruling planet. The following chart will explain more about the relation between Chakras and other subjects. The lotus petals of the Chakra works only on the subtle body. A lotus opens only when touched by the morning sun and closes just as the sun sets. Likewise, the lotus of the six Chakras open only when the Kundalini is present within them. So, in an ordinary man all the lotus petals remain closed.

We are in a very wrong notion about astrology. Astrology is not a science which is used to predict an individual’s birth, wealth, marriage, disease and death. These are non-essential astrology because of which astrology lost its reputation. When one can distinguish essential from non-essential, astrology becomes a tool.

The Rigveda starts with the word Agni or fire. It is from the fire all creatures are generated and when the fire goes from our body we die. The Vedic religion is basically a religion of fire worshippers. They worshipped fire because worshipping earth may take you aeons, because the chief character of earth is stability. Worship of water is unwise because water is the main substance, which makes up the body and most of us identify too strongly with our body. Worship of air is likely to make you seriously unstable. Since fire is the representative of the sun on earth and without sun life cannot exist on earth, fire is worshipped. The fire also purifies and amplifies whatever is offered to it. The worship of fire is meant to purify the fire element in the body and to purify the consciousness by amplifying the Mantras we repeat. The Vedic worhip of fire is known as Yajna, which is extremely detailed and complicated.

Its simplified form is 'Homa', which requires a fire pit, offerings, Mantra and several medicinal herbs specified for each Homa, depending on the deity. The colour of the light of the flame and the smoke produced by burning of the herbs and offerings purifies the environment and rejuvenates the body and mind. The worship of fire is much easier than worship of air by Pranayama (breathing exercise) in a polluted environment because by doing Homa the fire burns away all the bad 'Karmas' and thereby helps in the process of spiritual practice. Homa is done regularly to purify the Mantra and amplify its effects. Enlightenment means burning of Karmas through Tapas, which means heat or fire. The BhutAgni is the fire of the subtle body. It is the fire that must be ignited for the purpose of the spiritual practice. One important reason for doing Homa is to awaken the 'BhutAgni'.

The Mantra is the essence of sound or it is the embodiment of truth in the form of sound. The mind rides on the subtle energy of the breath. The Prana is the factor that purifies the subtle channels of the body. So when you chant a Mantra, you are charging your breath and energy with the energy of the Mantra and so working directly on your mind and subtle body. The 'Guru' of master who gives the Mantra has repeated it himself for a long time, during the course of his spiritual practice. He also has realized the power of the Mantra and is able to charge it with a living conscious force. When the Guru has made his Mantra divine and alive that Mantra is perfect, it brings liberation, and also bestows all types of powers.

Through constant repetition of the Mantra the Kundalini is awakened. There are four ways in which the Guru deliberately awakens the Kundalini - by touch, word, look and thought. There are 3 main places the Guru touches.

The practice of Guru Yoga has four main phases like invocation, merging your mind with the master through the heart essence of the Mantra, receiving the blessings or empowerment and uniting your mind with the Guru, and resting in the nature of bliss. This is the essence of Guru Paduka Mantra.

The whole purpose of Tantra is to free us from all limitations i.e. that of the five great elements which makes the universe. Purifying the five great elements i.e. 'Bootha Shudhi' is the essence of Tantra. In Tantra the flower represents the either element, incense the air element, the lamp represents the fire element, water represents water element while sandalwood paste the earth element. The science of Tantra explains three important types of initiation of Diksha as Avanam, Shaktham and Sambhavam.

In AnavaDiksha decoction of Ayurvedic drugs are made and poured throughout the body. After giving the 'Purna Diksha' - full initiation only, the master passes on his full knowledge of Tantra to his disciple.

“Kosha” is the sheath of the psyche representing different categories into which the mind and the body have been divided according to its functions.

Annamaya Kosha the Food sheath is the outermost sheath of the body which represents the food taken by the parents which in turn is converted to semen and blood. This fusion is what forms an individual’s appearance, and also the similarity to the appearance of  parents.

Pranamaya Kosha or the sheath of Life force is the next sheath and represents the actual prana or the life force of the individual.

Manomaya Kosha or the sheath of Mind is what represents the mind.Mind is the doubting factor within each one, and always fluctuating, so the intellect takes over.

Budhimaya Kosham or the Intellectual sheath is the sheath that represents our decision-making power, and pure consciousness. This sheath takes through the bliss sheath.

Anandamaya Kosham or the Bliss sheath is the innermost sheath that is activated when a yogi’s meditation raises the yogi into a state of bliss - devoid of all attachments and all bonds. This is the ultimate bliss that every yogi yearns for. For the ordinary individual, the experience of this state of bliss is momentary, when an orgasm is experienced i.e. raising of energy from earth element to water element. But the actual height of this bliss is when this energy raises from the Mooladhara to the Sahasrara, which is what a yogi experiences..
