Sadhguru on Surya Kriya

Sadhguru
Today human intelligence is used in a very crippled way, constantly dipping into one's memory bank. If your intelligence functions only from the memory that you have accumulated, then you are just a recycling bin. The same thing will keep happening in many permutations and combinations.

One major aspect of spiritual process is to keep your hand out of the memory bank. Why we speak so much about karma – karma is memory, because the moment you dip your hand into it, your life will become cyclical.

Once your life becomes cyclical, you are going nowhere. The idea is to break the cycle. Your intelligence has to become free from the accumulated memory, otherwise cycles will not be broken; cycles will be created. The more deeply you dip into this memory the cycles will become shorter and shorter and slowly lead you towards insanity.

Surya Kriya is a very powerful process towards physiological and psychological health as well as a tremendous spiritual possibility. It needs to be done with a certain level of competence.

Keeping out of our memory bank.
Our tots automatically flow in from our memory bank. So, it is up to us whether we hold the floating tots.
If we don't hold it, it just disappear like a wave and then another batch of waves comes in.
In the sea, the waves is on-going.
So, if we stop grasping the waves, then we don't automatically flow with the waves that is going on old path.
when we hold on to our presence, instead, we are going on to a new path.

The idea of yoga is that your body becomes a possibility, not a barrier. If that has to happen, everything within your system should function with least amount of resistance, with least amount of friction. Even according to our understanding of mechanical sciences, we know that a machine is truly efficient only if it has least amount of friction. If it has no friction, it will be the ultimate machine.
So, if the wear and tear in your body has to come down phenomenally, the first thing is to ensure there is no friction between different dimensions of who we are.
The idea of Hatha Yoga is to knead the whole system in such a way that all these frictions are smoothened out so that after some time if you sit here, there is absolutely no sense of friction within you. You have only the outside to deal with. Nothing else. Only if it becomes like that, can you deal with the outside with a phenomenal ease and capability.

Surya Kriya is a phenomenal process in that direction to bring smoothness to the system. This well-oiled feeling within yourself will not come unless you are in sync with the largest system – the solar system. The larger body of who you are is the solar system.

MMmm with my RA..I truly need it.
Mmm..Surya Kriya is truly something.
I recalled that I only did Surya Kriya out of obligation and responsibility as a Sathsang guide.
Alas, I fall in love with it.
From one who was totally resistant, I was hooked.
Had been doing 5 cycles until early this year when I stopped it for Angamardhana and only does 1 cycle.
Mmm..may want to re think on my schedule.
Nowadays on evening, I do three cycle of Cat Stretch, perhaps can do one cycle of Surya Kriya before I do breathing meditation.
Then at least have 2 cycle of Surya Kriya in a day.
