Bhandas Bundle

In this special 11/11 class, we are working with the mechanism of the neck lock and the mantra Bhand-jameeai to resolve inner conflict. Jalandhar bandh (neck lock) is a subtle movement that creates more openness in the cervical spine, which not only allows the kundalini to flow but also increases circulation to the brain.

In this class, learn how to use the bandhas to raise the kundalini "in quick order." Discover how to open up the nexus of the diaphragm to release emotional blocks.

"When the kundalini starts to move through the channels of the spine & through the chakras & nadi system, in a more circulatory way...it's a multidimensional merkaba, through the whole structure of the aura."

In this class learn about the master lock, the mahabandha.

"The science of yoga stops at mahabhandha."

-Yogi Bhajan

Kundalini yoga is a hacker's technology and the root lock is one of the fundamental techniques. Bandhas or "locks" are access points of power. Learn how to locksmith (or lock-pick) your system to access more of your own energy. Learn these simple yet powerful techniques to upgrade your practice.

The bandhas are hydraulic locks that, once applied, allow you to access more of your infinite supply of energy (AKA "kundalini").

Kundalini energy is the potential, creative energy stored at the base of the spine. Everyone has the potential to awaken this energy & all yogas are intended to do so. Bhandas allow the kundalini energy to awaken & flow freely. Exactly like a hydraulic lock, one applies pressure so that the energy can pump upwards.

Each lock (root lock AKA mulbandh, uddiyana at the diaphragm, & jalandhar at the neck) is incredibly potent. Yogi Bhajan said it takes 18 months to perfect the most complex lock, jalandhar bandh.

Guru Jagat kicks off Yogic Science Academy with an introduction to the concepts of the bandhas (yogic locks).

Discuss the lower-triangle (first three chakras) and why Western society is so out of sync with them. Learn how to have a healthy relationship with your authoritative power (third chakra), sensuality (second), & sense of security (first) that keep you grounded on the earth and thriving as a human being.
