It isone of the few exercises that is a complete action in itself. It is a kriya: an action or series of actions that completes a process and has a predictable outcome. Most kriyas consist of series of exercises that synergize. Sat Kriya can stand alone like a precious gem. Any serious student should master this kriya. A beginning student should start with 3 minutes. The time can be built up from that base.  \nHOW TO DO SAT KRIYA  \n• Sit in Vajrasana (Rock Pose). The heels are under the sitting bones. The knees are close to each other.  \n• Stretch the arms over the head with elbows straight, until the arms hug the sides of the head.  \n• Interlace all the fingers except the index fingers.  \n• Chant in a steady rhythm the Mantra “Sat Nam”, approximately 8 times every 10 seconds. As you pull the navel up and in toward the spine, chant“sat”from the Navel Point. Feel it as a pressure from the Third Chakra center. With the sound“nam,” relax the belly. The focus of the sound “nam” can be either at the Navel Point or at the Brow Point (the point where the eyebrows meet at the root of the nose; the area that corresponds to the Sixth Chakra).  \n• The breath regulates itself and no breath focus is necessary.  \n• The spine stays still and straight. The rhythmic contraction and relaxation produces waves of energy that circulate, energize, and heal the body. This is neither a spinal flex nor a pelvic thrust. Remain firmly seated on the heels throughout the motion of the kriya. The abdominal contraction is focused at the Navel Point. There is an automatic contraction of the rectum and sex organ areas as in Mula Bandha, the lower body lock, but the lock is pulled from the navel.  \n• Continue for 3-31 minutes.  \n• To end, inhale and gently squeeze the muscles from the buttocks all the way up along the spine. Hold it briefly as you concentrate on the area just above the top of the head. Then exhale completely. Inhale, exhale totally and hold the breath out as you apply a firm mahabandha, contracting the lower abdomen, lifting the chest  \nand locking in the chin, squeezing all the muscles from the buttocks up to the neck. Hold the breath out for 5-20 seconds according to your comfort and capacity. Inhale. Relax.  \nCOMMENTS  \nIn the beginning, practiceSat Kriya for just 3 minutes. Give your attention to perfecting form, rhythm, and concentration. To build it up in time and increase effects, start with rotational cycles: 3 minutes of Sat Kriya with 2 minutes of relaxation. Repeat this cycle 3-5 times. Build gradually. Then switch the cycles to 5 minutes Sat Kriya and 5 minutes rest. Then add 3-5 minutes to the kriya time as you become comfortable and accomplished at it. Soon you will be able to do the entire 31 minutes.  \nAs a kriya, it is a process that works on all levels of your being – known and unknown – making you more capable of responding to your own subtlety and totality. Approached with patience, steadiness, and moderation, the end result is assured. If you have very little time and you wish to do a beautiful practice, make this kriya part of your daily routine.  \nOne of the primary actions of Sat Kriya isto balance the energies of the lower triangle of chakras, the energy distribution centers, by mixing prana and apana at the navel center. This generates a heat in the system and opens the inner channels to the upward flow and rotation of energy. The contraction of the navel and the gentle pull of the Mula Bandha guide the forward projection and the process of mixing energies of the chakras.  \nIt is excellent for digestive troubles and for transcending fears. The excellence of Sat Kriya is that all the three sisters of the lower chakras are pulled together and act in unison. The correlated action of all three centers multiplies the effect and stabilizesthe changes.  \nThe main impact of this kriya isto tone the nervous system, to calm emotional disarray, and to channel c","cbCainzoZOXRKLVa","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainzoZOXRKLVa","pdf",87010,"English","# Sat Kriya\n## How to Do Sat Kriya\n## Comments\n## Alternate Positions\n## Common Mistakes Made While Doing Sat Kriya","[{\"question\":\"What is Sat Kriya and why is it considered complete?\",\"answer\":\"Sat Kriya is essential to Kundalini Yoga and described as one of the few exercises that completes a process by itself.
