Transformation
“When you understand who and what you are, your radiance projects into the universal radiance and everything around you becomes creative and full of opportunity.” - Yogi Bhajan
The daily spiritual practice, Kundalini by Yogi Bhajan is a life transforming practice. I am living proof of this yogic philosophy and practice. The kryias and meditations in Kundalini Yoga break patterns, addictions and habits.
I lived with an addiction to alcohol for 16 years. I’m not big on labels and am not big on recovery programs that live in the past. I’m a believer that you heal, let go, move on and start over without the addiction. Calling yourself an alcoholic is derogatory, self degrading, living in the past, self-loathing and self-sabotaging. Why should I live under a label of such negativity. I shouldn’t, I won’t and I don’t. I live in the now in the state of mind that has been transformed and made new.
I am a “child of God”. We all are!
My spiritual name, Siri Manpriya, was given to me by the Kundalini Research Institute. Siri Manpriya is the “label” of my transformation.Speaking my name aloud to myself gives me strength, power and healing.
“Mastery is no longer a mystery. Align the You within you—master the Self—embody your identity, experience your breath and expand your radiance. Kundalini yoga, by Yogi Bhajan, gives you the tools you need to balance your chakras, discipline your mind, clear out the past and renew the present in order to manifest your future. Strengthen your vitality and resilience; determine your destiny as you transition through every age and stage of life. Kriyas and meditations are organized to facilitate your personal practice and deepen your experience of the Self.” @spiritvoyage
“Radiance is our shine—our inner light. It's what attracts opportunity and prosperity into our lives. It's what protects us from fear and hatred. Our Radiant Body is our protection; but it is also our projection, a witness to our royal courage, our grace, and our willingness to be of service to others.
As we approach the Aquarian Age, the pressure we are experiencing now will only increase. These days and times demand a strong nervous system, a clear arcline and a radiant aura; these elements, along with a vibrant Pranic Body, contribute to the health and strength of our Radiant Body. If our Radiant Body is weak, we become susceptible to paranoia and delusions, and unable to serve others or our own destiny.
Radiance is our projection. We affirm who we are through the word—Sat Nam. We experience who we are through the breath. We deliver who we are through our radiance. Yogi Bhajan often said our presence should be a healing. Can you imagine your radiance uplifting someone from across a room, someone you've never even met or may never meet? This is what is asked of us in the Aquarian Age. As leaders, teachers, healers, and yogis, our presence is our radiance; and if our presence cannot deliver, nothing will. Be the light and illumine every dark corner of the world.” @3hoFoundation
"If you are human and your presence doesn't work, all the wealth and all the knowledge will not work either. Once you develop a personal discipline, your psyche starts emitting a sense of confidence, trust, and grace, and that creates love. Your radiance should be so strong, that even if a hateful person sees you, it should totally neutralize the other person's psyche so that they experience nothing but love and friendship."
-Yogi Bhajan
My prayer for you today is that you will listen to your inner voice. Disconnect from the ideals, people and materialistic things that no longer serve you. Open yourself up to endless possibilities by letting go of the negative and embracing the light of the positive. I encourage to find a yoga studio in your hometown that teaches Kundalini. This spiritual, scientific and medical practice will heal your life and transform your mind, body and soul. I’m living proof.
Sat Nam 💜🙏💫

💫Today’s @innercompasscards Reading💫
Life is constantly changing. Cycles repeat themselves continuously. The Mayan people recognized a pattern that moves from initiation, to refinement, to transformation, to completion. Right now, you are in the phase of transformation. In this phase, you can let go of all things that no longer serve you. What remains is who you really are. It appears as if you are going through a crisis; stuck in the old with the new yet to come. Remember that crisis is a transitional period. It is painful to let go of well-known patterns or people, even when they bring you stress and negativity. It is needed to clear space for something new. This card invites you to allow all difficult feelings that might come up. As soon as you accept them, the sky will be clearer. Surrender yourself to the energy of transformation, everything will change along with you. Seize this opportunity to get closer to yourself, and surround yourself with all the things that make your life so valuable.
