LADY NIGUMA LEVEL 1 FOUNDATION COURSE
OUR DESTINY: TO BECOME LIGHT There is a very famous expression in yoga: kaladanda.Kala means time and danda means stick. Although kala means time, it has the connotation of death, because given enough time, the conclusion is death. However, the Lady Niguma practice is the ultimate danda. It is the stick that we use to beat death to death. Death is a mistake. It is an accident. Death has causes and we can remove these causes. These causes stem from ignorance that misperceives reality and it is this misperception that creates the side channels which form and twist around the central channel cutting off the prana. Through the practices of Lady Niguma we are able to loosen these knots and allow prana to flow into the central channel.When perfected, this is the death of death. This is the point where the light body manifests completely and the mind is free of negative thoughts and all obstacles. This is the royal road of yoga. This is the path to taking care of infinite beings. Perfectly. And this is the goal of Niguma’s yoga. Please remember that the path of yoga is a lifestyle not an asana sequence. And please remember that the most important change is the change we find in our heart. Travel the path with joy. Travel the path with patience. And travel the path with love. The team at the Yoga Studies Institute sincerely appreciates your efforts to keep these teachings alive in the world and in your hearts. We believe that we are with you, on the same team, trying to do the same.
