Dear Mkr

First at all if we read Leadbeater's book the Chakra's
we that  Ida(feminie) and pingala(masculine) works in man
different than in woman.
Man goes Ida left and woman right.
Pingala in man right and woman left from the spine through sushumna.

Now is the time to experience the holon in balance, the octahedron
with the ecstazy in the physical heart.
Who is interested can see the meditation for thet from Tom Keyon on
his website http://www.tomkenyon.com/home.php




Than who is swami Satayananda Saraswati:
He was born in 1923 in a small town Almora in the foothills of the
Himalaya's.
He had his first spiritual experience at the age of six.
At 19 he goes from home to search his spiritual master and found him
in Rishikesh. swami Sivananda. He plnged himself into karma yoga for
12 years and to such an extent that swami Sivananda said he did the
work for four people.
Although he had a very keen intelect and his guru had discribed him as
a "versatile genius" his learning come not from instructions or study
in the ahram.

He followed his guru with faith on command-"Work hard and you will be
purified.You don't have to bring the light, the ligh will unfold from
within you".
And this is what happened.
He gained an enlightened understanding of the secrets of spiritual
life and has since become a great authority on hatha yoga, tantra and
kundalini.
After spending 12 years with his guru he took to parivrajaka life and
wandered extensively for 8 years travelling throughout India, to
Afghanistan,Burma,Nepal and ceylon.During this period he met many
great saints and yogi's and he spent time in seclusion, formulating
and perfecting the yogic techniques that could alleviate the
sufferings of humanity.
In 1963 his mission became apparent and he founded the International
Yoga Fellowship Movement.
And because his mission had been realized while he was staying in
Munger, he sattled there by the Ganga and founded the Bihar School of
Yoga in order to help more people towards the spiritual path.
Before long students were coming from all over India and abroad and
soon Swami Satyananda's teachings were rapidly spreading throughout
the world.
In 1968 he went on an extensive world tour popularizing he ancient
yogic practises among the people of all castes, creeds , religions and
nationalities.
Since then  swami Satyananda Saraswati has become a leading exponent
on yoga and tantra, guiding millions of spiitual seekers ans inspiring 
many ashrams and centers throughout the world.For he last 12 years he
has been dividing his time between foreign tours, Indian tours and
residence at Munger.


from his book Kundalini Tantra (1984)
