A spiritual discourse on finding the inner path and the role of guidance.

Snake is a symbol of its kind of movement. The Earth is held by a snake inbalance. When it moves a little there are many problems. Water and fire can not exist without each other. Practising kriya helps us to manifest our real human qualities. The story about two brothers who have educated themselves in different directions. In every petal of our chakras, there is a certain energy in it. Our roots are in the navel. In every chakra there is resonance. When we chant OM our tongue shouldn't move.
