Jai-Jagdeesh at Clara Auditorium

In this time of immense mental and physical fatigue, we need to be leaning into our practices. Kundalini yoga is like a charger for the body: plug in to it, and get filled up. Get filled up so that you’ll have the energy to live all the moments of your day. Get filled up so that you can imagine, conceptualize, and create beautiful things for the future. Get filled up so that you can bring more of your Self to the table when facing any given challenge. Get filled up so you can help others fill up. We have a LOT to do — and we NEED this nourishment to be able to do it.
Why 11/11?

In this time of immense mental and physical fatigue, we need to be leaning into our practices. Kundalini yoga is like a charger for the body: plug in to it, and get filled up. Get filled up so that you’ll have the energy to live all the moments of your day. Get filled up so that you can imagine, conceptualize, and create beautiful things for the future. Get filled up so that you can bring more of your Self to the table when facing any given challenge. Get filled up so you can help others fill up. We have a LOT to do — and we NEED this nourishment to be able to do it.
Why 11/11?
11 can reduce to 2 in which case all the problems of material duality will have to be processed before moving on to higher levels. This is our worldly appetite, through things like material goods, drugs, food, the sexual play and all that it implies--our sense of separation, desire for unity, longing to merge, and all the hopes, desires, expectations, fantasies, and disappointments we have in and around that game. So often we will fall into the black hole of despair and loneliness. The longing in itself is innocent but it does need to obey the call to higher levels. As we say, the world can only fulfill 20% of your total needs, the other 80% comes from the spiritual path; attunement to the divine in everything and everyone.
