Unless one understands these limbs of spiritual practice, one shall not be sure or ascertained about the proper spiritual discipline that one should take up. Understanding the nature of mind and its relation to the spirit as well as the world is important. Understanding Jnana and Bhakti in that context becomes vital.
Kundalini Yoga is an ancient science. It is the science of energy patterns of the human system. The ancient seers have enunciated the various energy centres if the body and listed down a set of practices, to awaken the otherwise dorman power of the Kundalini.
