WHAT IS SADHANA?
Sadhana is an early morning Kundalini Yoga Class Poole which contains physical exercises, meditation and mantra. The monthly early morning yoga class Parkstone helps promote to the yoga students Poole a practice of self-discipline that allows one to express the Infinite within one's self. It is a time each day to notice the patterns that lead away from higher consciousness and to transcend those patterns.
Sadhana is a conscious activity. We consciously choose to rise up, to exercise the body and to meditate. Each day is different. Each day, we are different. Every 72 hours all the cells of the body totally change. Sickness comes and goes. Motivation waxes and wanes. But through all the flux of life, through all the variations of the mind and heart, we consciously choose to maintain a constant and regular practice.
A person once said about sadhana: "Once sadhana is done, nothing should happen to you". I said "No, when sadhana happens, everything should happen to you, and you should come out as a winner, you should come out victorious!" That is what sadhana gives you. It doesn't give you a written guarantee from God. The one who does sadhana builds himself such a powerful personality, he can conquer anything! That is why I do my own sadhama. I have been doing it for years. I do it even now. Some people ask me. "You are a Master, why do you do sadhana?" I say. "To remain a Master!"-YOGI BHAJAN

Oh Yogi! Become one with God! - YOGI BHAJAN
To exercise in a yoga class Dorset before sunrise is important because the angle of the sun to the Earth is very good for meditation. Also there is much prana in these hours, and the body rhythms are more set to support physical cleansing than during the rest of the day. Few people are awake and busy, so the clutter and bustle of daily activities does not interfere with your practice.
DOING SADHANA IN A GROUP DEVELOPS GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS.
At the beginning of sadhana everyone has a different vibration. Some have traces of dreams: others are already filled with concerns for the day; and still others come with different expectations about sadhana. The more people there are, the more these individual differences balance out and create a harmony. The happiness of one person balances the sadness of another. Then the entire group finds its energy directed by the activity of the sadhana itself. The individual auras merge and form a group aura. If the group is well-tuned into the Infinite, a rainbow aura forms that reflects all colours. A blueish colour of sincerity and devotion predominates.
DOING SADHANA ON YOUR OWN. Though many challenges may come to stop this constant early morning practice, as we conquer each one, we will build our willpower, confidence, and ability to concentrate. This is no small accomplishment. If at the same time each day, we tune all of our mental and physical rhythms to each other, then the entire day flows better. Besides this, if we learn to meditate at the same time every day, this natural rhythm will make it easier and easier. In meditation, we are clearing the subconscious of fears. As each fear comes up and we look upon it neutrally, the fear loses its power over us. We become more flexible and feel more free. Most fears were learned at a particular time of day. So these fears tend to occur most intensely at the time of day they were originally experienced. By meditation at sadhana time, we slowly attract the anxieties from all other parts of the day. Normally we react to anxieties on their time and conditions. In meditation, the effects of old fears come to us in our time and under our conditions. Since they come at the same time each day, it becomes easier and easier to deal with each one. Eventually the mind is cleared of the clouds of fear and begins to see the light and power of creative consciousness. Then the morning meditation clears out the daily worries and projections so no further long-term subconscious fears can accumulate.
Yogi Bhajan gave the mantras totalling the time of 62 minutes to be chanted each morning before 7am until December 2013 when the Age of Pisces has left and the Age of Aquarius begins; see top of page to purchase Sadhana Mantras Manual.
