The key technique in the Ipsalu Tantra Kriya Yoga system is the Cobra
Breath,
a p reciou s gif t to hu man k ind fro m Bab aji, a Hi malyan yog i
of g reat po wer and wisdom. Kriya masters have said that a
million disease-free years of life on this planet are required to
evolve a perfected brain capable of experiencing
CosmicConsciousness. Kriya practice enables one to move at a much
faster pace, since eachCobra Breath produces one year of spiritual
maturation. The Cobra Breath pullsShakti (or magnetic) energy into
the spine, changing the electromagnetic propertiesof the cerebrospinal
fluid, allowing Kundalini to move up the spine. As the
brain bathes in this magnetized fluid, the nervous system is transformed,
and you awakento a new consciousness.The teaching of the Cobra
Breath is an oral lineage passed from teacher to teacher for thousands
of years. This tradition is strictly adhered to for reasons of safety
inmanipulating Kundalini energy. Kundalini energy is the most
powerful energy in the body and is nothing to trifle with. This ancient
breath technique was long held secret because of its great power.
Traditionally, methods as powerful as Cobra Breath weregiven only to
very advanced students after long years of preparation, and then
under clo se sup erv ision of a ma ster -teach er. It is no w time
to mak e th ese secr et and profound methods more available,
protected as they are by a self-selection process.Those who are not
ready for them aren’t usually interested.The Cobra snake is chosen as
the symbol of the Cosmic Cobra Breath. Kundalinienergy has often been
depicted in ancient drawings as a serpent coiled three and onehalf times
at the base of the spine. Kundalini is Life Force, or
Consciousness, andalso it is sexual energy. When sexual energy
is aroused, the serpent may climb upthe spine to the higher centers
of the brain, expanding the consciousness. The
cobrasnake is cho sen sp ecifically because it flares its h ead
b ef o re strik in g . Th is actsymbolizes the expansion of
consciousness. A corollary of this symbolism is foundin traditional
depictions of the Hindu God Shiva. He is always shown with a
Cobrasnake wound around his body, usually around his neck, but
sometimes around hisarm or waist. He, and his followers; the
wandering Sadhus in India; often carry atrident, or three-pronged
spear. The three blades represent the male, the female anddivine union,
as in the meaning of the circuit of breathing used in the Cobra Breath.
The first cobra breath technique
With the tip of the tongue touching the upper part of the teeth, inhale
through themouth feeling a cold energy coming up through the
back part of the spine up toKu tasth a. This up ward mo v emen t
of Pran a is help ed b y Mu la Bandh a which is practiced after
the breath leaves the Muladhar Chakra and by a moderate form
of Uddiyana which is practiced after the breath passes beyond
the Manipura
Chakra.Th e energ y go es th rough th e Med ulla toward s Ku tas
tha. Ho ld you r b reath and swallow, pulling your chin back and
slightly down. After about 3 seconds or more,take a sniff and begin
exhalation. The energy is visualized moving from
Kutasthaupwards and over the middle of the skull -- keeping
close to it. When the flow of
energy reaches the Fontanelle, the Mula Bandha and Uddiyana are
released, energytravels down the back of skull. Smile, opening
thus the Medulla where the energyreturns inward. Keep your smile
while the energy flows downward to Muladhar. The"Awww" and "Eeee"
sounds are made by the breath as it goes up and down. Repeatat least 12
times.
The second cobra breath technique
Inhale through the nose visualizing the energy ascendi ng through
a channelsituated in front of the spine. As the energy passes
through each Chakra, a subtle pulsing of the Vairoli Mudra is
performed. The tongue is up in a simple form of Kechari
Mudra. The energy travels up through the tongue to pause at the
Pinealgland. Cobra breath one stimulates the Pituitary gland,
while Cobra breath twostimulates the Pineal. As the energy
ascends Om Na Mo Bha Ga Va are mentally placed in each Chakra.
After placing Va in the center of the head the breath is held.The face
turns right, then left and then the chin is lowered to chest. After
a fewmoments, head is returned parallel and the Mantra continues (Te
Va Su De Va Ya)as th e en erg y trav els do wn f ro m the Medu lla
th rough th e back of the spin e to Muladhar. At the start of the
exhalation, tongue is relaxed and a slight expulsion of air (similar to
Kapalabhati) is released at each Chakra with the "EEE"
sound. Soundand b reath are f luid all th e way d own , ju st
accentuated to fu rther sharp en the awareness of each Chakra.
Repeat at least 12 times.
The third cobra breath technique
Inhale equally through the mouth and nose in three portions.
With the first portion, draw the golden light in through Kutastha and
store it in Vishuddhi. Inhaleagain, this time a larger portion
bringing golden light in and store in Anahata. For the last time
inhale again, this is the largest inhalation, the golden light is stored
inManipura. Beginning with the first inhalation, make a slight Mula
Bandha and witheach successive intake of breath, tighten it. When the
inhalation is complete, pause,collect your attention at the base of the
spine and, exhaling, intone "Om" out loud.During exhalation Mula
Bandha and Kechari Mudra are released. The golden lightare guided up
through Sushumna and out through the crown. Repeat at least
12times.
