How is the real kundalini in you functioning?
2:40 - 4:29 (109 min)

Morning satsang with Vishwaguruji from Alexandria, USA. First, you should know that you want to practice yoga and what yoga is. Yoga needs discipline. You should prepare yourself for yoga practicing. We shouldn't do anything against nature. Chakras give different sounds/mantras in different parts of the body. If you want to see God, see God in your family and friends. Brain strokes and heart attacks happen through the nerve system. Pranayam purifies this system. Don't use artificial things on your body. The subtle body is going with us after death. OM is in the consciousness of all Creation. The sun resonates with the sound of AUM. Our skin gives us all information about the whole universe. God is everywhere.

To preserve the health of the body we should use proper nutrition, pure drinking water. The heart and soul is the same in everyone, it does not depend on the color of the skin.
