Hi all,
In one of my ealier post on ecstatic conductivity (
http://www.aypsite.com/plus-forum/index.php?topic=1634) some of you mentioned the Chi Machine. I think it would be nice to collect all the available, reasonably reliable products for stimulating/ smoothing out kundalini. (whether they are truely effective or not[
])
First, my thoughts on a yoga practice which may be practiced more safely and effortlessly using technology (IF the original yoga practice does work, a big "IF"): there is a practice in kundalini yoga where the yogi sit in padamasana, lift himself up with his hands, and then bump his hip to his ground. This is said to be stimulating and can raise the kundalini. But every reasonably educated man will see the risks here. Now I am think about puting on a vibrator at the lower spine/hip bone. Or, if possible, at the perinium. Water therapy with emphazis on the lower spine/hip bone may be a better but less convenient choice.
What do you guys think?
Now, my thoughts on the Chi machine.
I knew the Chi Machine when I was a kid, and some of my family members are still using it from time to time. But I was then skeptical of its effects and didn't use it for more than 5 times.( By the way, my family doesn't seem to have a awakened kundalini, nor did they report any special experiences.)
I may give it some try again in the near future. Here is my thought NOW: Part of its effects may be (just may be) explained by the change in blood flow, and the sudden contrasts felt by your nerves when you end your session. If you try placing your fingers onto a really fast vibrating machine for a few minutes, you will feel the same thing at your hand and fingers.
If you come up with any thoughts, or if you know any other technological aids for yoga practices, please share with us!
Alvin
p.s.
This post seems fit equally well into the science and yoga forum, I am putting it here just because of the greater attention it will get here!!
