PRANA - THE VITAL🔗

ENERGY

Air is only a medium

Prana is the life force, the life giving energy itself. Understand this one example: let us say a truck comes inside the temple, drops something and goes out. Think of the truck as air, then the product which is delivered is prana.

Constantly, the air is coming in, leaving the prana inside and going out. Constantly, we are taking prana through air. From the cosmos, we are taking prana through air.

In India, if you have attended the Kumbh Melas, you might have seen…I have seen: they will bury their heads in the earth for three days. Logically, you can't understand. Logically, you will be thinking, 'How are they alive? How are they breathing? How is the prana being supplied to the body?' As long as you take prana through air, you need to breathe. You need to inhale and exhale. But when you can take the prana directly without the help of air, you don't need to inhale or exhale through the nose. Your body can directly take prana through the Cosmos. In India, yogis know how to take the prana directly from the Cosmos without the help of air…!

EAST TRAVELS WEST

The first ever Kumbh Mela in USA was celebrated with great pomp and splendor on September 10, 2006 at Bren Event Center, UC Irvine to usher in peace, by infusing collective positive energy. An auspicious moment in time, an opening for powerful healing energy to be firmly rooted in North America arrived... More than 18 Southern Californian organizations took part in the festival, which featured a quarter-mile procession with an estimated 4,000 chanting marchers who carried pictures and images of deities and spiritual leaders from various temples.
