Aquarian Sadhana  














Sadhana means daily spiritual practice. 


In sanskrit Sadhana means accomplishing something. 


For Kundalini yogis, morning sadhana forms the backbone of their practice, helping to raise kundalini energy and bring self awareness and personal victory.


















Sadhana can be done as a group or individually. 

The Aquarian Sadhana is divided into four parts: 

  1. Preparation for sadhana - Cold shower, white clothing, covered head.

  2. Recitation of Sikh prayers  - Japji - The Song of my Soul

  3. Kundalini Yoga kriya & relaxation

  4. Chanting the Aquarian mantras


The three steps to mastery are sadhana, aradhana, and prabuphati, which mean discipline, attitude and mastery. 

Sadhana requires the discipline to do it everyday, the development of the attitude of openness to the Universal self that comes in that state, and it leads you to the mastery of yourself.  

Sadhana is really a relationship with yourself that you commit to everyday.

Morning sadhana is a specific practice within Kundalini Yoga.  Sadhana can refer to any spiritual discipline done at any point in the day.  

In Kundalini Yoga however, it most often refers to the practice done during the 'ambrosial hours', which is usually two and half hours before sunrise and considered the best time to practice because the sun is at a sixty-degree angle to the earth, and has a powerful healing effect.
















Why two and a half hours?  This the minimum time suggested in the Kundalini Upanishads.  It operates under the principle of karma: that whatever you give comes back tenfold, so with two and a half hours given to the Divine, then your entire day is covered with blessings. The angle of the sun to the earth during this time is also very fortuitous and our biorhythms are more favorable for cleansing.  Few people are awake during these hours, so it's easier to take time out for yourself without distractions.

Doing sadhana in a group develops group consciousness.  When sadhana starts everyone has a different vibration, but as it goes on, our inner strings tune themselves to each other.  Our individual auras merge to one group aura. A group sadhana practice amplifies the impact of the meditation. Yogi Bhajan said that group meditation not only adds to individual effort, but multiplies it.

In the yogic sciences, there is a saying. “Your habits define you.” The problems in life come from our habits. The Divine dwells in the saint, as well as in the thief. The only difference is how people act. Our actions come from our habits.


The soul is complete and beautiful as it is.





If you practice a kriya a few times, you receive a wonderful benefit. But if you want to permanently change your habits, and realise the full effects of the kriya, this is what you can do:
