Dwadashant Meditation Practice Part 1

So, which chakra do you need to energize? If you need to work on any chakra from the 3rd thru 6th, then try this meditation practice. Pick your chakra and follow the directions listed below.

• from your starting point (the chakra you have chosen) visulize that you are inhaling and exhaling from this chakra - 5 minutes
• now, visulize the breath originating 12 finger lengths directly in front of the chosen chakra, it moves into the chakra and on the exhale it moves into the chakra below
• now, reverse; the next breath originates in the lower chakra and moves up into your chosen chakra and on the exhale returns to the point outside of the body 12 finger lengths in front of your chosen chakra
• continue this visulization with breathing in both directions for 15 minutes
• now continue the breathing, but change your visulization to create a triangle between the 3 breathing points (chosen chakra, 12 finger lengths in front and the lower chakra) this is the yantra for chakra energization.
• visulize light particles in the triangle, moving in a circle between the points (psychic passage) 5 minutes
• merge your consciousness with the movement of the light particles -10 minutes
• during this practice if your body wants to move or rock back and forth, let it happen
• Enjoy the Vilas of Chitta and Shakti!

What is Dwadashant? Inquiring minds want to know

Hey after a long time once again!!!!

A lot of queries about 'Dwadashant' in breathing meditation of CSV...

Dwadashant means: 'end of 12' generally 12 finger lengths... and also the 12 matra(syllables), and the sub-chakras(energy centers) and sometimes the space between spanda(vibration).

Every chakra has 8 dwadashant, that is 12 finger lengths in 8 directions. Why speak about the chakras? Because there are several different opinions in different traditions about the selection of a "central base chakra" for sadhana. In sadhna we generally use only agya, vishudhi, anahat and manipur (the 3rd thru the 6th chakras). We'll look more closely at this in the next few days.

There are so many meditations on breath... as vipassana(Buddhist meditation), anapan sati yoga(Buddhist meditation), Pranayama(astanga yoga), Pranavidya(upanishada)....and many more.

Before I start a play with this knowledge (budhi vilas), I want to wish you all a very happy HOLI. It is a festival of colors... but yes for me it has a special yogic meaning... ho + li, ho means become and li means already, ie; already became like that(God). It is just an statement of sadhaka(practitioner) as he realised the God. The Sadhaka is actually colored with the love of God. To express it outside this a traditional play with color in India. People forget the actual meaning.
