Q: I have a question about the jalandhara bandha and/or vissuhudha centre - when we activate all four centres (mulabandh, anahata, vissuhuda, and agna) you clenched the neck and tilted your head back a bit to activate that visshuda part/centre. I am used to tilting the chin down and in a bit and lengthening the back of the neck - so I'm wondering about the different effects or reasoning for these two seemingly opposing movements around the visshudha centre (clenching the neck and tilting the head backwards a bit, vs. tucking the chin down and in and lengthening the back of the neck). Could you explain why the different movements? Thank you so much! ~Dawn Marie Rabey
A: Yes, every aspect of Tantric Kriya Yoga breathing reverses the flow of Ida and Pingala and the Prana. You move your neck back to awaken the Medula Oblongata which we know as the Humsa or the Swan of Awakening. We do move forward as well later in Thokar Bandh. This sends the energy surging over the back of the head into the nasal and third eye cavity. The Muladhara bandh here is called the Ashwini Mudra which creates a circuit between your sexuality at the Yoni and the Muladhara - so the two connect to move up the Sushumna. Gold flows in that way...

Q: My question pertains to lifelong karma impacting early in life progress. I was seeing the third eye (gold halo surrounding the blue with a star in the center) constantly, 30 years ago when I first was doing Kriya with SRF. Then an abusive relationship ended in divorce, and a material life & career took my focus. Now I nolonger see the eye. Now that I’m retired, I’ve been doing my Kryas and daily meditations for 3 years. I am seeing light again after your Kundalini course! Would the reason for no longer seeing the third eye be because of bad karma that I’ve created over the years? Thank you!
A: The SRF Star is seen by clearing or decalcifying the Pineal Gland or Agya Chakra through Khechari breathing and Jyoti Mudra - which I teach as well. You can reactivate that by focussing on your third eye or through gentle Sun Gazing. That is an in-between stage to the bliss and Ananda of heart awakening which comes as the star opens up a portal for you to the void of Shunya. But in this work and doing the mantras of Lalitha, Chamnundaya, and Tara you will get there once again but with even more bliss this time and real-life transformation. Love and blessings....

Q: My question is, my right nostril is congested. Are there exercises I can do for that? It's okay on dry days. If I lived in LA I would be fine. But here in geoengineered chemtrail wet Virginia, it's an issue.
A: Put your right hand under your left armpit and squeeze the arm on to it. This will open your right nostril.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Do I need to use double breath every time I clench my bottom and let go?
A: 1. Yes on the Ashwini Mudra only
Q: Do I need to chant A-U-M seperately during the meditation or can I do it all at once, three times?
A: Doing A U M separate once relaxes all 3 brains and worlds and chant - avoid short cuts at this stage
Q: Do I need to clench my bottom and let go while chanting each of the beej mantras. Is it ok to do so? So while chanting SHREEM thrice, should I clench my bottom and let go each time?
A: No but it does help to keep the clench at LAM
Q: For the mantra AEEM KLEEM SAUH - SAUH KLEEM AEEM, is it all done in a span of one breath?
A: Not necessarily - feeling it is more important as in the video
Q: You mentioned three ways to do the Japa - as a beginner initiated into this practice, would you recommend a particular way or can I choose to do it quietly in my mind each time?
A: At this stage loud or mutter
Q: If I wish to use the protection mudra (say before an official meeting), can I just do the 6+6 +4 motions..and end with Digbandh without chanting any mantra before or after the procedure?
A: Yes
Q: Being raised in a brahmin household, since a very early age I have memorised and regularly recite Lalitha Sahasranamam, Kanakadhara Stotram, Mahalakshmi ashtakam, tripurasundari ashtakam a.o. Can I use any specific mudras while reciting these shlokas?
A: I will teach you the Dash Mudras to Lalitha and the Sri Yantra later so please wait but if you know how to do them then go ahead for the Aeem Kleem Sauh mantra to Bala
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Raja addressing a FB group member: My first suggestion to you is to let go of all previous knowledge for a few days and empty your vessel to see how the energy comes in and changes in you. AUM is done Ah in releasing Brahma Granthi in the Yoni and stomach area as Akara, U (oo Ukara) in the heart center) and Um (Makara) in the nasal cavity and third eye. The Mrgi Mudra will be done with the Guru Padukone Mantra to ShivaShakti which I will teach you soon and I will explain the meaning then. We will explore Shakti and the Sacred Feminine energies more deeply in a few classes from now. Shree Matre Namaha श्री मत्रे नमः No difference on Ida Pingala in gender. You can share the mantras with others as it is open source - only in the transmission from me to you is there a more personal power. Because after meditation you are vulnerable to negative forces.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q) Do I need to take a shower before reciting these mantras early in the morning?
Q) Can I do the meditation and chant the Mantras during the monthly menstural cycle?
Q) Can I have something to drink, besides water, before I sit down for meditation?
A: There is a lovely verse in the Vigyan (Vijnana) Bhairav Tantra that says nothing is pure or impure, we are all from the same sacred divine consciousness. With that in mind treat yourself as pure no matter what state your body is in. There is no right or wrong in this work. In terms of best practices as you will learn with, the secret is to reduce your Apana (prana in the lower intestines) in the morning so that your Prana rises all day and then with an empty lower abdomen your practice becomes easier and lighter. As far as cleanliness goes, the purpose of running water over your body is that it increases Prana - so that helps too. And yes you can practice during your cycles as this is pure Sacred Feminine Energy. Love and blessings, Raja
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Raja , may I ask about spontaneous body movements and mudras during mantra & meditation?
I have heard this is just energy moving but is it more? Sometimes I feel I’m being put into very specific positions & I wonder why that is.
A: Spontaneous body movements and mudras are good signs of Prana Kundalini activating your Nadis and a good precursor to other awakenings. The secret is to clench your bottom and relax and they will come under your control after a while. Love and blessings, Raja

Q: Hi Raja Choudhury i have been doing the protection mantra from negative energies 2 days in the row now, but its not working. Does it then mean that it exists within my own energetic field? How can i get it out? I feel like im too aware or im tuning into The frequency unknowingly and uncontrollably cant figure out the cause of it...
A: No, it means you weren't aware of them and now your awareness getting expanded and slowly you are able to perceive subtle energies everywhere. In ordinary life we are unaware of the effect of energies around us and within us, this work increases awareness and also heals their impact and removes them....fear not, this will pass. Do the Mantras....
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Is there a good mantra to do when working with bullies?
A: Raja Choudhury says - HUM ASTRAYA PHAT. It sounds like hum us trah ya futt. Say it loud and then bang your left foot three times on the ground. The whole idea is to break the bonds of your Karma and this is what tantra means.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Sometimes it can just be a big relief though when I say "stuff happens"....do I always need to dig for a deeper reason or karmic reason? My mind always wants reasons for everything that happens because the mind is addicted to have a meaning for everything. But when I say "Ok, stuff happens" it helps me to accept and embrace what happened for what it is, even if it doesn't "make any sense".
A: When you say "stuff happens"another part of your subconscious sublimates the trauma and stores it in your stomach. It seems you have forgiven until later it emerges as passive-aggressive behavior, anger, depression or worse as diseases and suffering. Facing trauma with the added benefit of Shakti and Light not only heals but also burns away the effect on your Apana. It is important to be a grace-filled Shakti and a fierce Goddess too. Always face that which you fear most or it will reappear in unusual ways.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Can you please answer: if there is any difference comparing chanting mantras vs. chanting in mind vs. just listening? In some books, like "Swami Sivananda 14 lessons of raja jogi" it is mentioned that chanting AUM in mind is more powerful compared to oral chanting. Can you comment if there are complimenting asanas which may help our progress, like Sirsasana, as an example, apparently designed to bring inner energy to upper chakras?
A: Japa means to mutter or chant the mantras slightly louder than a whisper. There are 3 stages to Mantra Chanting. Clear and audible Japa, silent with mouth movement so the air moves in and out, Inner silent while focussing on one honey pot center of bliss (above the head by staring up at about 30 degrees, heart or navel/Muladhara by staring down at the tip of the nose or about 30 degrees down in front of you). The 12 finger rule applies to the 3 centers of bliss, 12 fingers above your nose (2 hands and 2 fingers) is the crown Bindu center, 12 fingers below the nose is the Hridaya and 12 fingers below that is the Manipura and 12 fingers below that is the Muladhara. These are called the Dvadashantas or 12 fingered centers of bliss. The power of Mantras is experienced in the pauses before and after each utterance. Enjoy....
