I find the subjects discussed really resonate with me and I appreciate that this wisdom is it for everyone. A large part of this Western type of KY still includes Sikh meditations & mantras however, and I have so wanted a new way to understand this sacred tradition totally apart from YB’s influence. The Guru Granth Sahib ( Punjabi:, pronounced u nt sahb) is the central holy religious scripture of Sikhism, regarded by Sikhs as the final, sovereign and eternal Guru following the lineage of the ten human gurus of the religion. Several years gone by now, I’ve come back to this practice since there are now teachers offering guidance in this practice without YB’s influence. I was totally disillusioned and dropped the practice. Long story short, I found out about the controversy surrounding Yogi Bhajan (YB) who brought KY to the West, combining his own Sikh background with yoga. I specifically like the spiritual aspect to this yoga practice. I had several profound spiritual experiences, and decided to look further into it. I was initially drawn to kundalini yoga (KY) (in the U.S.) by simply “trying out” a new form of yoga I’d heard about. By the time we get to the 27th pauree, we are ready for the impact that this pauree has on the. Japji Sahib follows a very clear and specific sequence and each pauree occurs at a specific point in the evolution of Japji for a specific purpose. It removes obstacles and destroys hurdles. Helpful guide in understand in Sikhism w/in Western Kundalini Yoga movement the Twenty-seventh Pauree shows you the way.
