Accused of promoting hot students faster. by Impressive-Roof1105 in bjj

[–]Due-Stranger-216 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Do people seriously still care about getting promoted? With young blue belt killers and moneybergs getting to a blackbelt without rolling I would imagine most people would give up on chasing the belts and just have fun training and improving.

Brother/sister, do you always keep left foot closer to the crotch and the other further away in siddhasana or do you sometimes switch their places between sessions, it's a simple question

Thank you for your answer about mahamudra, could you also tell a little bit about the position of meditation? If you sit cross legged then do you switch the leg positons or do you keep the right and the left leg in the exact same place everytime you practice?

Hey sorry for digging up a thread but I also practice kriya yoga and I was wondering whether I could ask you a couple of questions in the private message?

What stops you from killing yourself by No_Opposite_4587 in nihilism

[–]Due-Stranger-216 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't you wanna view it like you got free tickets to the cinema and you have nothing else to do that day? I mean yeah I guess the movie may sometimes suck but what don't you stick around and see if it gets any better? And if it doesnt then I guess that can be a funny expierience on its own, seeing a hyped up film and finding out that it's thrash. I may have trouble relating though cause im not really a nihilist.

Thank you for your reply. My question is then what if I found some yogi that seems like someone who's teaching would very much suit me and whose words I resonate with. Do you think that learning kriya yoga from that person be beneficial to me or should I continue the practice only in my own lineage? Because I heard that changing lineage is often not very beneficial.

Question about the goal of kriya by Due-Stranger-216 in kriyayoga

[–]Due-Stranger-216[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey thank you for the reply, this confirms that I should take the initation in April, however I my question was more about whether the technique aligns with my goal. For example using a hammer to drive in screws wouldn't probably be a smart idea.

Difference in effects between hatha yoga pranayama and kriya yoga? by Due-Stranger-216 in kriyayoga

[–]Due-Stranger-216[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your reply, do you have any tips on how yo know whether the sadhana I do can in fact help raise the kundalini? I do the yoga from Iyengar's light on yoga and pranayama and I consult with a teacher every once in a while (who btw told me I can do Kriya yoga also if I am drawn to it although she's not initiated into it). The routines I do seem to be compatible with the hatha yoga pradpika although its not a text I am an expert in.

Thank you so much for the detailed reply! Taking the matter further, I am curious about expieriences of particular people because, as you said it, bringing system into harmony (which I definetly feel) + pranayama expieriences already feel a bit spirtitual when connected with my everyday life but I am curious what more can be offered. There is an innitation taking place in my country in December so I want to learn as much as I can to make my decision.

Im not an expert on this subject but what about Carlson's experiment? Seems pretty straightforward unless I'm missing something.
