This is one of the powerful techniques to awaken the kundalini shakti, the potential energy which you carry within you. This is a beautiful technique to develop sensitivity in the body.
Duration: 30 minutes
Close your eyes and just touch the eyelids with your forefingers as lightly as a feather would. You can use a real feather also if you like. The feather should not bend when touching the eye. If it bends, it means you are applying too much pressure on the eyelids. Too much pressure will not work with this technique. You need to give just a feather touch.
It is as if you are touching, but not touching. It is as if your fingers are on the eyelids but not pressing them. Balance your hands well and touch your eyelids with your forefingers. Your hands may tremble at first and you may touch either too heavily or too lightly, or you may not be touching your eyelids at all.
When you are able to touch your eyelids like a feather, you will be able to see a strong energy connection getting established between the fingers and the eyes. Slowly, you will feel that your fingers and hands have become a part of your eyes.


As of now when you close your eyes, you feel your boundary ends inside the eyelids. But with your feather touch, your eyes will feel like they have expanded! If the pressure you apply is just right, you will have this experience. Your eyes should feel the same sensitivity outside that you feel inside.
Once you start practicing this technique intensely, you will be able to see that the energy circles inside you instead of the energy leaving you through your eyes, as you normally feel it does. If you close your eyes, the outer scenes may cease and the outgoing energy may stop. But even then, inside you, some scenes will be moving and so the energy will continue to be wasted. Only if you stop the inner and outer scenes does enlightenment happen.
This technique takes at least half an hour to balance even once. It might take at least one month of daily practice to balance oneself completely using this feather-touch technique.
Dynamic meditations
1. Blissful dancing

Duration: 31 minutes
Free dance means dance with no defined steps or rules. It is just allowing your body to move as it pleases, being playful, enjoying yourself and becoming part of the tremendous energy of dancing.
There are two stages to free dance: dancing and resting.
Step 1: Duration: 21 minutes
Close your eyes and begin to dance. Don’t bother about the steps. Let your body be free to move as it wishes. Don’t be concerned about how you look, how your clothes look. No one is watching you, this is not a performance.
As you continue to dance in this fashion, more and more energy will surge inside you, and you will keep going. The more you dance, the more energetic you will be! You will not feel tired at all.
Enter deeply into the dance. Dance as fast as possible, as freely as possible. Forget yourself totally. Just become the dance.
Step 2: Duration: 10 minutes
At the end of 21 minutes, wherever you are, in whatever position you are, just drop down on the floor. Lie down. Be silent and still.
In the sudden change from frantic motion to sudden stillness, you will experience a moment of blankness. There will be no thoughts but you will experience a deep silence. In a few moments, the thoughts will start coming back. Watch the thoughts calmly. Don’t fight with them, don’t get lost in them. Just remain aware. You will become aware of a lasting peace inside you, a great silence that remains even after the thoughts return. Carry this peace, this silence with you throughout the day. Carry the silence into your sleep. You will wake up feeling new and refreshed.
