1. Nithya Kriya - Yogic solutions for Weight Loss
Harnessing The Kundalini Energy For Self-Healing
The constant flow of energy happens continuously in your body through the 72,000 subtle energy channels called nadis, making up the energy circuit of the body. This circuit is governed by the kundalini energy. Kundalini energy is the immense potential energy present in each of us that acts like a water pump and helps complete this energy circuit.
Kundalini can be thought of as every individual's hotline to the infinite cosmic energy source. Once awakened by appropriate yogic practices and the guidance and grace of the guru, Kundalini showers a host of blessings on the practitioner, including a big boost in energy levels, physical well-being, the falling away of negative mental patterns, true inner fulfillment, and a deep connection to the universal Source.
If there is a disturbance in the energy flow in some part of the body, there is impedance to the energy flow to the rest of the body, resulting in the onset of diseases, disorders, and disturbances in the affected organs.
Nithya Kriyas are powerful tools which help remove these energy blockages restoring the life energy flow. When the body is aligned in certain postures during the kriyas, the energy block is removed and the "wiring" of the circuit or the "plumbing" is re-aligned. Once the block is removed, kundalini energy gets pumped into the circuit during the kumbhaka part of the pranayama. When energy flow is re-established, the disease or disturbance is healed. It is like a plumbing system. It is like the drain pipe where the water once again gushes forth merrily when the blockage or disturbance in the pipe is removed.
These kriyas are not just ordinary asanas. Kumbhaka, pranayama. It is like different chemicals. Separately, they may take ten years to cure a disease or disturbance. Mixed properly in certain combinations, they remove the disease in a short amount of time.
Nithya Kriyas involve the combination of these components: Yoga asanas, Kumbhaka, Pranayamas, Visualization
External verbalization - extenal sound you are hearing or chanting.
Internal verbalization - internally hearing of sound or mantra.
The healing achieved by Nithya Kriyas is permanent as it works on the cellular bio-memory level. It generates natural steroids and therefore has no negative side effects. Besides healing, the Nithya Kriyas have a powerful permanent effect on brain functioning, both on the mechanical and non-mechanical parts of the brain. The mechanical parts of the brain constitute a relatively small percentage of the brain and are responsible for our day to day bodily functions like digestion, respiration, walking, sitting, etc. The kumbhakas also awaken the non-mechanical, untapped parts of the brain that are responsible for the manifestation of many extraordinary extrasensory powers. The body naturally experiences the peak conscious coherence, joy and bliss.
Scriptural Roots Of Nithya Yoga
Nithya Kriya is soundly anchored in the sacred yoga scriptures, including the legendary Patanjali Yoga Sutras, as well as the three classic texts that form the base of yoga - Hatha Yoga Pradipika, GherandaSamhita and Shiva Samhita.
Patanjali Yoga Sutras
The Patanjali Yoga Sutras is the foundational text of yoga, written by the father of yoga, the enlightened sage Patanjali. This esoteric yet highly practical text is based on Sankhya Yoga. It is said to date back to the 2nd century BC, although it is believed to be far more ancient. Patanjali Yoga Sutras emphasize the value of yoga as a lifestyle through ashtanga yoga (8-limbed yoga).
Hatha Yoga Pradipika
This is a classic 15th century Sanskrit Hatha Yoga text, written by Swami Svatmarama, a disciple of Swami Gorakhnath. The book is dedicated to Adinatha or Lord Shiva, who is said to have revealed the secrets of Hatha Yoga to his divine consort Devi Parvati. Hatha Yoga Pradipika contains four major upadesha as (teachings), which reveal the correct understanding and practice of asanas, pranayama, chakras, bandhas, kriyas, shakti, nadis, mudras and kundalini.
Gheranda Samhita
This is also a classic Sanskrit Hatha Yoga text. It is a practical yoga manual said to have been taught by the sage Gheranda to ChandaKapali. GherandaSamhita text has 7 chapters. It advocates a sevenfold yoga - shatkarma, asana, pranayama, mudra ,pratyahara, dhyana, and samadhi with a chapter dealing with each one.
Shiva Samhita
This is a classic Sanskrit text where Lord Shiva addresses Parvati his consort. There are 5 chapters which deal with yogic philosophy, techniques for liberation, kundalini, pranayama, asanas, mudras, bandhas, and meditation, and the role of a guru. The book mentions 84 beneficial asanas but describes only four of them.
The other texts that Nithya Kriya draws from include the Kumbhaka Paddhati of Raghuvira, Trisikhibrahmanopanishad, Yogakundalay Upanishad, Yoga Chudamani Upanishad and Yoga Taravali, JogaPradipika, Yogasana Mala Sachitra, among others.
What Is Completion?
Completion is the state of being where no negative events, emotions, thought patterns or behaviors from the past can have a hold over us in the present or future. For example, people who have a deep victim mentality frequently suffer from pain in the back of the head. Their incompletions will manifest as an illness or a disease in their physical body. This can only be resolved by completing with it.
Once an incompletion is discovered, it can be completed. The simple declaration that it will no longer be a part of the cognition can complete that incompletion for us. These patterns of thinking, rooted in negative thoughts, feelings, and behaviors can be completed by reliving. When it comes to completing with past pain patterns, or Samskaras, reliving is relieving.
"Reliving your past, with a new understanding, deciding not to repeat past mistakes, incompletions and patterns again in future is completion." – THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM
Mahadeva has defined completion, in this twenty-second technique in Vijnana Bhairava Tantra, which is part of the Shiva Sutras. Vijnana Bhairava in Shiva Sutra verse 22nd – definition of completion:
"Look at your past, dis-identified. Let attention be at the place where you are seeing some past happening and even your form having lost its present characteristics is transformed" – translation by THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM
Addressing any issue in the gastrointestinal tract with the Nithya Kriyas will ultimately lead to an overall health in your body-mind and being. Resulting in not only improvement and possible cure, but in a new perspective of the infinite possibilities available in our life!
"When we experience internal chemical balance, hormonal equilibrium again and again, we create the alchemical shift to a physical state which embraces divine consciousness. This cleansing of our bio-memories -- establishing a "clean stomach" -- raises us into the zone of enlightenment."
- THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM -
Introduction
Most of us would like to improve our physical condition, whether it is weight loss, lifestyle and food habits, an addiction we'd like to overcome, or improvements to our current fitness level.
Nowadays, more than 1 billion people are overweight globally and this number is growing. Obesity is the most common cause of cardiovascular diseases, and increases the risk of high glood pressure, stroke, diabetes, cancer, osteoarthritis, sleep apnea, reproductive problems, gallstones, and other life-threatening illnesses. This book contains yogic techniques revealed by renowned yogi and guru, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM. Every process is designed to help us to become powerful agents for the change we desire in our lives. The techniques, such as Nithya Kriyas, are based in sacred yoga scriptures including the legendary Patanjali Yoga Sutras, as well as the three classic texts that form the base of yoga: Hatha Yoga Pradipika, Gheranda Samhita, and Shiva Samhita.
According to yogic knowledge, the cause of illness and disease is frequently of a mental nature, directly or indirectly. In many of his discourses, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM teaches that mental suffering such as fear and depression are rooted deeply into our biomemory and cause health problems and diseases by lowering the immune system. Excessive worry can affect any part of the body and cause a number of psychosomatic diseases. This subtle interplay between the body and mind is why it is so important that worry be addressed and removed from the system.
If an emotion is handled properly, the corresponding chakra (energy hub in the body) functions in a healthy way by expanding in size as energy flows to the chakra. Chakras reduce in size when emotions are not handled properly due to low energy flow to the chakra, which can manifest as disease in the mind-body system. Attention-need, childhood trauma, societal conditioning, unhealthy habits, and emotional injuries all contribute to lack of energy-flow to the chakras. Completion* with past pain patterns is essential to overcoming the root causes for these diseases.
- Completion is a technique that THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM teaches.
Care For Obesity
According to the American Heart Association, having a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher meets the requirements for obesity, which means you are at a higher risk for heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, diabetes and more.
To maintain a healthy weight, it is best to eat foods in their most natural form, drink plenty of water and consume fruits and vegetables daily. Fried and processed foods should not be consumed, and white refined sugar should be avoided as much as possible. But there is more to health than what we consume or what we don't consume. We must also move the body. A healthy body has a balance of strength and flexibility. These Nithya Kriyas were designed for care and cure of weight loss.

Care For Addiction
Addiction is a syndrome showing up as a compulsive dependence upon mood altering substances (substance addictions) or behaviors (process addictions). Examples of addictive substances include: alcohol, drugs, tobacco, caffeine, and refined sugar. In process addictions the individual is addicted to the process or behavior itself. Gambling, shopping, sexual activities, eating disorders, watching TV, playing video games, and work can all be included in this category when they are practiced in excess or obsession. Addicts are frequently addicted to more than one substance and/or behavior simultaneously, hence the term addictive personality.
Addiction is a progressive health problem which increases in severity if left untreated. In substance abuse the tolerance level of addicted individuals is gradually increasing, hence they require a higher dose of substance to achieve the same effect than that with which they previously achieved with a lower dose. Substance addicted individuals often attempt to quit many times before they are permanently successful. The techniques of cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness are being increasingly employed to curb process addictions. This Nithya Kriya was designed for care for addiction.

Care For Hernia
A hernia occurs when an organ or fascia of an organ protrudes through the wall of its containment. Hernias most often occur in the region of the abdomen as a result of a hole or tear in the abdominal wall. Though symptoms vary, the protrusion can generally be seen and felt. They cannot be pushed back into the abdominal cavity without proper interventions, and though painless, may be chronic.
Heavy lifting, straining during pregnancy, overstretching muscles, obesity, and extreme weight loss can contribute to the weakening of the containing muscles. Poor nutrition, smoking, and over-exertion can all contribute to the weakening of muscles, making hernias more likely to occur. These Nithya Kriyas were designed for care and cure of hernia.

Nithya Dhyaan Yoga Break Free Of Limitations!
Have you wondered why the experience we receive from life is always the same, no matter how much we strive to alter it? Our endeavors to find happiness, success and better relation- ships may yield varied results, but at the end we are almost always left with the feeling that nothing has changed. The reason for this limited experience of life is the behavioral patterns, which are deeply engraved in us. Each pattern is associated with one of the seven major energy centers (chakras) in our system, which subtly influences our emotional behavior. In this intensive 2-day workshop, we learn to apply the four sacred principles of blissful living (integrity, authenticity, responsibility and enriching), to heal our chakras and go beyond the influence of these limiting behavioral patterns.
