"The truth that sets 'you' free is within 'you', only 'you' can set yourself free"
Yoga is a traditional physical and mental discipline for mental and physical wellbeing. Both the Buddha( founder of Buddhism ) as well as Mahavira ( founder of Jainism ) achieved enlightenment through Yoga. Buddha chose to remain silent about God whereas Mahavira denied the existence of God. Of course when we deny the existence of God, it is only the rituals and ceremonies that are implied. For those of you who do not believe in God, Yoga will still prove to be a good form of mental and physical rejuvenation. I have provided an explanation of the Kundalini Yoga and I have marked out its benefits.
Kundalini yoga is a physical and meditative discipline within the tradition of Yoga. The exercises are also sometimes referred to as Kriya Yoga or simply Kriya. According to Hindu tradition Kundalini yoga is a pure spiritual science that leads to enlightenment and God-Realization under the guidance of a Spiritual Master. The awakening of kundalini means awakening of inner knowledge By sincere practice of meditation, the senses come under the control of our mind and we do our actions with constant awareness of the cause and effect system. Kundalini is the life-force; the energy of the body and mind. Simplified Kundalini Yoga is the practice to utilize the life-force for the object of meditation; merging the mind with the life-force takes one to the subtlest frequency, which enhances awareness and furthers intellectual sharpness and understanding.

Simplified Kundalini Yoga (SKY)
1) A trained master initiates the student into meditation practice, intensifying the working center of his life-force at Agna Chakra (between the eyebrows) so as to focus there and meditate.
2)After a few days of the initial practice, energy increase in the upper centers may be felt excessively. At this point the student is taught Shanti Yoga.
3)The next stage of practice is Thuriya Yoga, which is meditation at the crown chakra, i.e. Sahasradara or Brahmarandra.
Higher Techniques in Kundalini Yoga
1) Higher level techniques of meditation include Thuriateeth Yoga where the fractional state of consciousness unites with the infinite state of consciousness. By sincere practice the student can advance from the limited body consciousness to soul consciousness and ultimately to God consciousness.
2) A separate technique of meditation is also taught to strengthen the mind and body in resistance to the adverse effects of planetary transits.
3)Practices are also given to understand and increase one’s personal biomagnetism for physical and mental optimum strength. One is also taught to use biomagnetism for helping others by passing energy in certain cases.

1) Reduces the mental frequency (stress signals).
