I find the subjects discussed really resonate with me and I appreciate that this wisdom is it for everyone. A large part of this Western type of KY still includes Sikh meditations & mantras however, and I have so wanted a new way to understand this sacred tradition totally apart from YB’s influence.
It was composed by Guru Nanak Dev Ji, the fir. Several years gone by now, I’ve come back to this practice since there are now teachers offering guidance in this practice without YB’s influence. 1500AD, is the opening chapter of the Siri Guru Granth Sahib, a sacred scripture and songbook of Divine Love and human. I gaze upon all the created beings: I gaze upon all the created beings: without the karma of good actions, without the karma of good actions, what are they. Jap Ji Sahib is a prayer at the beginning of the Sri Guru Granth Sahib, considered the holy scripture of Sikhs. I was totally disillusioned and dropped the practice. Long story short, I found out about the controversy surrounding Yogi Bhajan (YB) who brought KY to the West, combining his own Sikh background with yoga. I specifically like the spiritual aspect to this yoga practice. I had several profound spiritual experiences, and decided to look further into it. I was initially drawn to kundalini yoga (KY) (in the U.S.) by simply “trying out” a new form of yoga I’d heard about. Helpful guide in understand in Sikhism w/in Western Kundalini Yoga movement
