你可以考慮的食物 (想要更有活力?)

 


想要更有活力?


那就少睡少吃。因為你吃的東西都需要消化,而人體有三分之一到百分之五十的能量都用來消化食物。


小小的事,瑜珈之道


晨間可以考慮:


* 薑茶和奧勒岡(牛至)茶


* 一杯檸檬汁(用水稀釋)。你需要新鮮的檸檬汁,但要用吸管喝,以免傷害琺瑯質。


* 充分咀嚼幾顆杏仁。


* 早上吃一根香蕉,有助於鉀鈣平衡。


* 如果你想明智地避免烈酒、葡萄酒和肉類,可以吃一湯匙葡萄乾 — 充分咀嚼。


* 為了增強內臟功能,取一茶匙荳蔻,用一杯牛奶煮沸後飲用。


* 心情不好?心情糟透了?喝一杯原味瑜伽茶。它能讓你精神煥發,因為它能立即作用於肝臟並增強免疫系統。

強化神經系統冥想(Strengthening the Nervous System )

 



強化神經系統


「肌肉的力量源自於神經。神經的力量源自於耐力,而耐力的力量源自於你自身。 」— YB




以簡易坐姿坐好。雙手呈現以下手印:拇指與無名指(太陽指)和小指(水星指)相扣,食指和中指(木星指和土星指)併攏並指向正上方。


肘部彎曲,貼著肋骨。雙手與肩同高,距離身體約30公分(12吋)。掌心相對,並在整個動作過程中保持掌心相對。


透過「O」型口,快速吸氣三到四次。每次吸氣時,雙手同時向後擺動至肩膀。


吸氣過程中,雙手向後擺動三到四次,速度極快,大約一秒鐘完成。


透過口型快速吐氣,回到起始位置。這種快速的抖動是一種有意識地自我製造的緊張感,目的是平衡體內的能量。


持續11分鐘。


結束:吸氣,屏住呼吸 10-15 秒,保持這個姿勢,然後用力重複雙手抖動的動作,直到全身都顫抖起來。抖動時,帶動脊椎、肩膀和手臂一起運動。重複此動作兩次。


備註:練習此克里亞瑜珈兩分鐘後,動作會變得比較困難,但你必須繼續快速運動。


這種抖動可以讓你擁有一個全新的神經系統。當你感到疲憊時,正是克服想要放慢腳步的時候。保持節奏,堅持下去。如果經常正確地練習此克里亞瑜伽,它就能讓你擁有一個全新的神經系統。



「那些已經斷開連接、失去功能的神經會開始重新連接,找到新的通路。這就是呼吸的力量,整個系統都會顫抖。」- YB






Strengthening the Nervous System 


"The strength behind the muscles is the nerves.

The strength behind the nerves is the stamina, and the strength behind the stamina is you.

- YB


Sit in Easy Pose. Put each hand in this mudra: lock down the Mercury (pinky) finger and Sun (ring)finger with the thumb and keep the Jupiter and Saturn fingers index and middle fingers) together and pointing straight up.


The elbows are bent and rest against the rib cage. Your hands are at shoulder level about twelve inches from the body. The palms of the hands are facing each other and stay facing each other throughout the movement.


Inhale in three or four quick strokes through the "O" shaped mouth. With each stroke of the breath, jerk the hands back toward your shoulders. Both hands move at the same time.


The inhale portion, during which you jerk your hands back three or four times, is extremely fast. It should be completed in about one second.

Exhale through the mouth in one stroke and return to the starting position. This jerky motion is a self-created nervousness done consciously so that the energy in you can balance.

Continue for 11 Minutes


TO FINISH: Inhale, hold the breath for 10-15 seconds, stay in the position, and repeat the shaking movement of the hands so powerfully that the whole body shakes. Move your spine, shoul-ders, and arms with your shaking. Repeat this sequence two more times.


COMMENTS: After the first two minutes of this kriya the action becomes difficult, but you must continue to move quickly.

This jerk can give you a new nervous system. When you become tired, it is the time to overcome the urge to slow down. Keep the rhythm and fight it out. When practiced regularly and correctly, this kriya can give

you a new nervous system.



"The nerves that have disconnected themselves and are dead will start connecting and finding a pathway. That's the power of the breath, the whole system will be shaking." - YB

呼吸與舌頭(Breath and the Tongue)

 


呼吸與舌頭

Breath and the Tongue


在你的身體裡,有兩個最重要的部位:一個是上顎(upper palate),它是下視丘(hypothalamus)的基部,因為下視丘控制著整個神經系統;另一個則是舌尖,它會影響中央神經通道——Sushumna(中脈)

Sushumna 位於舌尖,並控制著你整個心靈(total psyche)

從科學的角度來解釋:你的 Sushumna,也就是中央神經(central nerve),位於舌頭的中央。

當你藉由讓舌頭向內、向外拉動,對它產生牽引時,在這個過程中,你的思想就必須進入一種由主導指揮意志所帶來的淨化狀態

如果這種能力發展起來,你就能得到任何你想要的東西。



十六段式呼吸:重建健康 (Sixteen-Stroke Breath to Rebuild Health)

什麼是老師?( WHAT IS A TEACHER? )

 



什麼是老師?( WHAT IS A TEACHER? )

  • 老師給你的是經驗(experience);傳道者(preacher)給你的是哲學(philosophy)
  • 老師是神(God)本人的個人榮耀(personal honor)
  • 你可以透過提問(questioning)向老師學習,也可以透過祝福(blessing)向老師學習。
  • 老師是一個機構(institution),不是一個個人(individual)。
  • 老師給你的是經驗。
  • 老師是一個幫助(help)、服務(service)、提升人們意識(raising people's consciousness)的機構。
  • 老師是沒有二元對立(without duality)的神性載體(vehicle of Divinity)
  • 老師必須帶著燦爛的笑容經歷災難(calamity)。
  • 面對他人時,以謙卑而尊貴的威儀(humble imperial majesty)與人相處。
  • 以最高的優雅(utmost grace)示人。不以「看起來很普通(normal)」來迎合世俗(appeal to the earth)。
  • 要正直(straight)、說話正直、生活正直。
  • 老師必須有寬廣的胸懷(width of heart)與深刻的理解(deep understanding)。
  • 以優雅(grace)與慈悲(compassion)回應責任(the call of duty)。
  • 服務所有人,而所有人也將服務你。
  • 身為老師,你必須看起來俐落(look smart)、保持聰明(be smart)、說話直接(talk straight),不要站在對或錯的一邊,始終保持中性(neutral)。透過你的中性心智(neutral mind)去說話。
  • 當面對負面時,先提升高度(take altitude),然後改變態度(change attitude)。


擁有一位老師意味著什麼

自 1969 年 1 月在美國開始工作以來,Yogi Bhajan 就明確表示,他的目標是培養老師(Teachers),而不是聚集門徒(disciples)

1996 年 7 月,在西班牙拉(Española)舉辦了一場令人難忘的教師培訓課程,名為 《The Master's Touch(大師的碰觸)》,而且這個名字當之無愧。

在那次課程中,Yogi Bhajan 帶領我們深入體驗了什麼是真正的老師

我們許多人都覺得,好像在那十四天充滿轉化的日子裡,每一天都在做十八個小時的白色密宗瑜伽(White Tantric Yoga)

他也非常清楚地說明,一位真正的昆達里尼瑜伽老師(Kundalini Yoga Teacher)應該具備什麼。

以下摘錄自他那些卓越演講中的一些話:

    1996 年 10 月 1 日,Yogi Bhajan

    你知道,這個當老師的事,這個所謂「Guru」的事,你們會以為:

    「天啊,我得向某個人臣服。」

    那並不是真的。

    你不應該向任何人臣服。

    但是,你們是不是很不幸,生命中竟然沒有一個人能對你說:

    「停!」

    難道你還不如一條馬路嗎?

    當兩條路相交或分開的時候,都有一個標誌寫著:

    「Stop(停止)。」

    於是你會停下來。

    你看看左邊,看看右邊,看看前方,再從後照鏡看看後方,然後才繼續前進。

    你為什麼要這樣做?因為那能保證你的安全。

    在人生中,一定要有一個人、一份承諾(commitment)、一個念頭(thought),或是一種自律(self discipline)

    一個能讓你停下來的地方。

    你可以買世界上最好的車,但是,如果它沒有煞車(brakes),你就無法駕駛它。




(WHAT IT MEANS TO HAVE A TEACHER)
WHAT IS A TEACHER? 
From the very beginning of his work in the United States in January of 1969, Yogi Bhajan stated clearly his goal was to train Teachers, not to gather disciples. In July, 1996, during an unforgettable teacher training course in Española, called, and rightfully so, The Master's Touch, Yogi Bhajan gave us an in-depth experience of what a teacher is! Many of us felt as if we were doing White Tantric Yoga 18 hours a day every day of those transformational 14 days! H also made it very clear what is expected of a real Kundalini Yoga teacher. Here are some quotes from his remarkable lectures. 

* A teacher gives you experience, a preacher gives you philosophy. 
* A teacher is the personal honor of God Himself. 
* You can learn from a teacher by questioning, or you can learn from a teacher by blessing. 
* A teacher is an institution, not an individual.A teacher gives you experience. 
* A teacher is an institution for help, service, raising people's consciousness.
* A teacher is a vehicle of Divinity without duality. 
* A teacher must go through calamity with a radiant smile. 
* Deals with another person with a humble imperial majesty. 
* Appears in utmost grace. Doesn't look "normal" to appeal to the earth. 
* Be straight, talk straight, live straight. 
* Teacher must have width of heart and deep understanding. 
* Answer the call of duty with grace and compassion. 
* Serve all and all shall serve you.
* As a teacher you must look smart, be smart, talk straight, never be right or wrong, always be neutral. Speak through your neutral mind. 
* When confronted by negativity, take altitude, then change attitude. 

WHAT IT MEANS TO HAVE A TEACH
October 1, 1996, Yogi Bhajan 
You know, this teacher business, "guru" business which you think, "Oh my God, how I have to surrender to somebody." It's not true. You should not surrender to anybody. But aren't you that unfortunate that you have not one person who can tell you in your life, "Stop!" Are you worse than the road? When there are two roads meeting or parting, there's a sign called, "Stop." And you stop. You look left, you look right, you look forward, you look in the mirror backward, and then you go. Why do you do that? Because that guarantees your safety. There has to be in a life, a person or a commitment or a thought or self discipline - where you can stop. You can buy the best car in the world, but if it doesn't have brakes, you cannot ride in it.

觀點(Perspective)

 


觀點(Perspective)

如果你看到路上的一輛車,它看起來對你而言很大。如果你搭上一架直升機,它愈飛愈高,那輛車對你而言就會像一個小點。如果你再飛高一點,它就會消失。

因此,任何擁有高度(altitude)的態度(attitude),都會帶走你的痛苦、你的貧窮,以及你的疾病。就是如此。句號。

你們明白我在說什麼嗎?我已經在此跟你們講了多少天了?我從來沒有說過超過這個以外的事情。經度(longitude)和緯度(latitude)屬於每一個人。高度(altitude)和態度(attitude)則是人類的。你們懂我的意思嗎?不,你們覺得太無聊了。

一切真實(reality)的本質,都包含在渺小之中。那就是有限的人類(finite human)。神(God)包含在人類之中。你本來就不是別的,你就是神。你不喜歡相信這一點,因為如果你相信了,你就必須以不同於現在的方式去行動。這樣明白嗎?

你走路像一位神嗎?你有嗎?狗走路像狗。那你為什麼不走路像一位神?你們彼此都是怎麼介紹對方的?你們會說:

「Yogiji,這位是某某博士(Dr. So and So)。」

「這位某某是工程師。」

「這位是她的丈夫。」

這些全都是相對性的稱呼(relative terms)。

你會說:

「我是神,你也是神,你好嗎?」

你曾經這樣做過嗎?你甚至連在心裡都沒有這樣想過。你們竟然已經扭曲(perverted)到這種程度了……


Perspective

"If you see a car on the road, it looks big to you. You take a helicopter and it goes up and up, the car will look like a dot to you. If you go up a little further, it will disappear.

Therefore, any attitude which has an altitude will take away your pain, your poverty, and your sickness. Period. Do you understand what I am saying? I have been talking to you for how many days? I have never said anything more than that. Longitude and latitude belongs to everybody. Altitude and attitude is human. Are you with me?

No, it is too boring.

The reality of all is to be contained in the small. That is a finite human.

God is contained in a human. You are not anything but God. You don't like to believe it, because then you have to act differently than how you act now. Is that understood?

Do you walk like a God? Do you? A dog walks like a dog. Why don't you walk like a God? How do you introduce each other? You say, "Yogiji, this is Dr. So and So. This So and So engi-neer, this is the husband." It's all relative terms. Do you say, "I am God, you are God, how are you?" Have you ever done that? You don't even conceive it mentally, you are so perverted...?
