SRINU-KRIYA-GLIA-GYM–10


SRINU KRIYA-GLIA-GYM –10
T R A T A K A

Hai Friends,
                        This is a basic practise. The word Trataka means to look or to gaze on a small dot, Full moon, Crystal ball, Nose tip, Flame. This is one of the most powerful method of controlling the tempestuous mind and its thought waves. Corrects weakness and defects of the eyes. Mentally, it increases nervous stability, removes insomnia and relaxes even the most troubled mind.
           
            In this practise we gaze, Bahiranga (outer), and Antaranga(Inner) Trataka. This improves visualisation ability to the max. Visualisation is one of the most important vehicle in meditation. This practise improves the technology of closed and open eye meditations.

            The best time of Trataka is early morning with empty stomach. Duration of the practise for 15 minutes is sufficient. If practised regularly it develops the power of concentration to an almost unlimited degree. This awakens our inner abilities which helps to lead our life. Mostly improves meditation technology to higher levels practise.

                        Sit in a comfortable position, preferably a meditation asana, in a dark room. Place a lighted candle level with eyes, at a distance of one to two feet from the face. Beware of the physical body only. When you are prepared, open the eyes and gaze intently at the brightest blue centre point of the flame. With practise you should be able to gaze for a few minutes at the flame without moment of the eye balls or blinking. Continue to gaze at the flame with total concentration. The gaze should be absolutely fix on one point(Blue point). As soon as the eyes become tired or if they begin to water, close them and relax. Do not move the body, but aware of the after-image of the flame in front of the closed eyes. Brown yellow flame centred with blue spot. Like wise, the After-image of the candle flame will be clearly visible. As soon as it begin to fade, open the eyes again and continue to concentrate of the external candle flame. Repeat the same inner and outer Trataka for 10 to 15 minutes, without straining the eyes. Wash the face and eyes with pure normal water. This will provide relaxation for the eyes and eyelids, muscles.

            Dear friends, Total practise of GG requires minimum 3 years of time. To attain a grip on this meditation, you have to know so many related practises. So practise on a systematic way. Before the practice rewrite the paper for minimum 5 times. (Contd…11-18)

DIWALI - BIOLOGICAL- CLOCK - LIGHT- THERAPY


DIWALI – BIOLOGICAL CLOCK -  LIGHT  THERAPY

Hai Friends,
            Yogi’s, always concentrate on their inner tiny light in meditation.  They think that the tiny light is the nano particle of the totality light (Neevarastu Sukanti Vidyulekheva).   To attain a single creativity thought they control Light (Trataka), Sound (Nadha) in their mediation.  “The Awareness of the inner light” development is the symbolism of Diwali.
            The Neuro Scientists are doing lot of research on eyes and their inner parts stem cell technology is growing fast.  Stem cells give rise to all the organs in the body, a process that continues to fascinate and mystify the scientific world. A leading Japanese Group demonstrated the growth of both Human and mouse retina in laboratory dish. The event enables better understanding of brain development and may lead to evolute treatment for eye diseases.  In 10.5 days they developed three distint cell layer’s of retina, rods and cones, horizontal, bipolar and amacrine cells, and ganglion cells.  Ganglion cells play maximum role in eye.  Two functions sight, Biological Clock Rythams, are conducting by the eye.  Each of our eyes is also essentially two organs in one.
            Yogis practice trataka (Yogic Gazing) for developing eyesight, solving the Psychic Problems and to evolute their brain to the Max.  In between 1880-90 Ramprasad of Theosophy did a lot of research on the Yogi’s, who are living in cave’s, without any sun shine (Biological cycles) for number of months. They lead very simple lives.  All the Yogi’s ambition is to complete 40 thousand Hours of Meditation, to attain full evolution of their brain (Poorna) and enjoying the meditational bliss. Only for their undisturbed practice, they live in caves.  At present we have sound proof, air conditioned houses.  So we don’t need any caves. He lived and moved along with cave Yogis and observed their life style.  Finally he gave the most valuable research information in his book, nature’s finer forces and Tatwas.  Cave’s maintain the air conditioned atmosphere, they provide echo sound, which will improve Nadha.  They practice Agnisara Kriyas, Bhastrika Pranayama, Trataka.  By this practice they maintained, biological cycles, sound health and long life.  Alway’s they kept fireplace in the caves for gazing.  For their diet they cooked potatoes in fire and hot springs.  Brains Biological clock regulates body’s seasonal activities. Such as sleep, body temperature, feeding and breeding, with the help of sunshine.
            At present Neuro Scientists are searching the hidden organ in our eyes.  Evolution, in fact, may have played an important role in pushing the brain toward ever greater energy efficiencies When a nerve cell communicates with another, the brain uses just a millionth of the energy that a digital computer expends to perform, the equivalent operation.  Already scientists have built ‘Neuromorphic’ Electronic Circuits that Mimic Aspects of the brain’s signaling Net work.  Neural Activation of  the (30 to 80 Hertz) Gama frequency band has attracted the attention of researchers who have found that patients with schizopherenia and Autism show decreased levels of gama.  Neurons in the Hippocampus and the cortical area is strongly influenced by theta band (4 to 8 Hertz).  The emerging field of optogenetics, which combines genetic engineering with light to observe and control group of neurons is allowing researchers to scrutinize individual Neural Circuits.  An approach that will revolutionize the study of brain function.  Optogenitic stimulation can potentially target problem cells much more precisely than can electrodes used in DBS (Deep Brain Stimulation).
            Vision occurs when the rods and cones of the retina detect light and signals to the visual cortex at the back of the brain.  The rods and cones convey the signals to the brain vianeurons called retinal ganglion cells, which extends their axons down the optic nerve.  These are called as photosensitive ganglion cell and they produce, previously unknown pigment called Melanopsin, that enables them to sense light directly.  The photo sensitive ganglion cells send information to the brains main BILOGICAL CLOCK.  Biological Clock adjust the body to the cycles on night and day to common people, blind and animals.  If the cycles disturbs they rise the risk of cardiovascular diseases, Gastrointestinal Distrass, Cancer and Metabolic Syndrome, Type 2 Diabetes, Sleep, Sex.   The birds have light sensing cells in their brain.  It turns out that a surprising amount of light can penetrate the feathers, skin and skull of a bird to activate these cells.  Human Biological clock is established in the SUPRACHIASMATIC  Neclus (SCN) of Hypothalamus.
             According to the “Hata yoga Pradipika” of Swatmarama (Authorised text on Yoga) Trataka Eradicates all the eye diseases, fatigue and sloth and closes the doorways creating these problems.

SAIBABA gazing on the fire and listening Nadha

            RajadiRaj Yogiraj, Saibaba of Shiridi, practical Nadha Yogi, follower of saint Kabir, expert in Shat Kriya and Khanda Dhauti, Social Worker, Humanitarian, Great Psychologist.  A simple living yogi.  I cannot define him completely.  He always used to live on ALMS and shared it to needy people and dogs.  Before 153 years, he started Dhuni (Holy fire place) in Dwarakamai Mosque in Shiridi.  Most of the time he sat infront of Dhuni, by Gazing (Trataka) on the fire and Listening Nadha.  (By Closing his right ear with hand).  By neutralizing, the two important senses (vision and sound) he maintained samadhi (Teata).  He used a brick instead of pillow to maintain a full awareness also in his sleep.  In 1975 I practiced Nadha for ten days, in Lendi Bag, Gurustan, upstairs of Samadhi Mandir, Dwarakamai, Hanuman Mandir.  Saibaba’s pious life is an encyclopedia of yoga.
            Diwali’s fire crackers stimulate photo sensitive Glia Neurons by high light and sounds.  These neurons respond more to blue light, so in trataka practice, concentrate on the center of light, where there is blue.   This practice stimulate biological clock and improves health.
            Dear friends Agnisara, Bastrika (Vagus Nerve), Trataka (Eye Glianeurons) are the Nervous & Eye Sight, exercises belonging to Yogis light therapy.  Enjoy the Diwali Bliss externally and internally, by practicing the Yogis Light Therapy.
