Kundalini Activation And Unlocking 3 Out Of 7 Chakras

This is for you if you want to learn about kundalini. Kundalini awakening is very popular these days, but very misunderstood. I am Indian, and a science-based data guy, so you will see my view on how to approach kundalini in a very technical yet spiritual way.
I hope you get the most out of this. If you have any insights, please write to me and I will help you to go further down this path of kundalini-based living.
This session has the potential to change your entire view on life if you let it.

How? Because it's practical, I guide you right there.

Transcript

So I'm in Bali at the moment.

I've been traveling around Asia for a while.

I've been to Japan,

Which is one of my most favorite countries ever.

I've been around Indonesia,

Most recently Bali and Malaysia.

I was in before Singapore,

India,

Nepal,

Korea.

There's a bunch of other places as well.

I've been in Bali for the last six weeks,

Settling myself down towards the end of the journey.

So with that said,

Tell me where you're from.

We've got California.

Like I said,

I might be in the States at one point.

I've always wanted to.

So if you're from the States,

Put it in the chat.

Let's get warmed up.

Before we go into the topic of today,

Kundalini activation.

This is going to be the most powerful Kundalini session you've ever been to.

But we'll go into that in a moment.

I want you guys to engage in the chat.

Be here now.

Try not to multitask unless you have to,

Unless it's an emergency.

Treat this time.

Time is so precious,

Right?

Treat this as like gold is going to come out of it.

And that's not to make myself look amazing.

This is for you to mine gold in this place,

In this conversation,

In every experience in your life.

Everything.

I want you guys to pull gold out of everything,

Right?

So be here.

Be here.

Be present and look for nuggets.

That's my invitation.

Our mind is so clever.

We can often look for things that are not agreeing with our current way of thinking.

That's one way the brain works.

Neuroscientists talk about this a lot.

It shuts down things.

Nothing new is going to come in because we're guarding,

Guarding.

I've done this before.

I've heard things.

I've gone to workshops.

And I'm judging the person or I'm thinking,

I already know this.

I don't care if any of you guys know this or you've heard the word Kundalini,

Chakras before.

Please,

Not for me,

But for you,

Please look at this fresh and new.

Please,

Because that's what you're going to get the most bang for your buck today.

I want you to get the most bang for your buck.

It's my invitation.

So be here now.

Tell me where you're from in the chat.

Engage.

Even if you don't usually engage,

Engage today because fire from all different countries is going to join today.

And that's really what Kundalini means.

Kundalini is our inner fire.

Let's switch it on.

Let's start switching it on right now.

I'm fired up.

I'm fired up.

So we got Spain,

USA,

New Zealand.

New Zealand,

You're here at 2 a.

M.

You're committing to being in this space.

Well done.

I honor you.

Brazil,

We've got Netherlands.

Oh,

Hey,

Brian's here.

Hey,

Brian is an awesome human being.

Nice to see you.

Feel that,

Brian.

You're an awesome human being.

Samantha,

San Diego.

Nice.

I hopefully will be there at some point.

I want to get to the U.

S.

Austin,

I want to get there as well.

Colorado,

I want to get there as well.

California,

I want to get there as well.

So maybe I'll try to do a trip and go to all those places.

Summertime,

I'm thinking.

I'm thinking this summertime I'm going to try and get myself to the U.

S.

Because the U.

S.

Seemed to like me.

I like the U.

S.

Everyone wins.

Oregon,

I'd like to get there as well.

So thank you guys for sharing.

I'm going to be there soon.

This is what I do.

I'm right now in Bali.

I just appear in countries because my lifestyle is being a digital nomad.

People say,

Which country,

Where do you live?

I say,

I don't have a home anymore.

I don't,

I physically don't have a home.

I just move around.

That's my life and that's my dream.

My dream five years ago was doing this.

I wanted a seed and what did it?

Kundalini.

Kundalini activation,

Which is what we're going to talk about in a moment.

So let's dive right in.

I don't want to keep saying we're going to talk about it in a moment,

But I'm warming you guys up to who this person is presenting.

Why would you listen to me about Kundalini when there's a hundred other people talking about Kundalini and chakras out there?

What is the truth?

What is real?

How do we really do this?

How do we know what this thing is?

Put in the chat.

What does Kundalini mean to you?

What's your current understanding of Kundalini?

Where are you at with it?

Have you explored any practices?

What does it mean to you?

What have you felt?

Throw it right in there.

Because if I know who you are and your experience,

I can serve you better right now.

I don't have any scripts.

I don't have anything that I'm trying to fix this session into.

I want to be here with you.

That's what live sessions are about,

Right?

Live sessions are engaging.

You guys are here.

I'm not trying to box everything into a thing I read in a book or something I heard someone else say.

I want to show you my real lived experience of Kundalini and I want to bring you into your lived experience of Kundalini.

Kundalini cannot be understood through theoretical speaking of what someone else says and then thinking you know it.

It's not that.

It's a felt experience.

So tell me what Kundalini means to you in the chat and then we'll continue,

Guys.

Hopefully you're feeling my energy.

I want to send my energy through this microphone and into your hearts,

Into your bodies,

To your stomach,

Into your head to fire you guys up.

That's my purpose.

So tell me what Kundalini means to you.

Tell me your experience with Kundalini.

Maybe it's confusing.

Maybe you don't really know what it is.

Maybe it sounds like this crazy thing that opens up and is dangerous.

Some people say it's stuff like that.

Have you done Kundalini yoga?

Tell me more.

Tell me.

Share,

Share,

Share,

Share,

Share.

And then I'm going to share after you guys share.

I'm going to share my life experience with you.

Okay.

Kundalini is being grounded.

Kundalini is energy.

Not much experience.

Looking forward to learning.

Good.

Thanks for the honesty.

Alright.

What else?

Tell me more about Kundalini.

I have little experience with Kundalini yoga.

Okay.

Good,

Good,

Good,

Good.

That's good.

You have a fresh mind.

Sometimes the spiritual teachers will have an ego about them.

And they'll say,

Hey,

Oh yeah,

I already know what this is.

I need to come to your session,

Raj.

Or,

Yeah,

This is what it is.

And anything outside of that,

I'm not going to listen.

So spiritual ego can come in and I welcome all of you guys who are not putting that into the room.

I don't like that smell of that.

I'm a learner myself.

Constantly I'm learning from people.

And I'm a teacher.

I have a lot of experience with this stuff.

So I'm here to share.

Confidently.

Okay.

Encouraged by what you said about how Kundalini changed your life,

I'm going to tell you more about that.

I haven't really directly shared a lot about this before because Kundalini is a very sacred thing to me.

And I don't want it to be misunderstood.

Usually people would hire me one-on-one and I can impart the knowledge in a very sacred way,

Right?

In a safe way where I can see how they're using it.

I can share things.

I can monitor and support very intimately.

So it doesn't get messed up and it doesn't get confused.

It doesn't have adverse effects.

And there's all these extreme breathwork practices.

Oh,

The power just went out.

That's interesting.

Am I still here?

Let's pause that.

Okay.

Am I here?

Am I back?

Literally the lights went out.

Oh,

I love when that happens.

I'm just getting fired up.

I'm so full of energy that the whole lights went out.

Maybe or maybe not.

Maybe it's just a coincidence.

So let's dive into this.

I hope that wasn't a huge cliffhanger and you guys are like,

Hey Raj,

Where are you?

You're just about to tell us all the secrets.

So back to kundalini.

Slowing myself down.

Because kundalini is energy.

It's life force.

It's different to the energy where,

Hey,

I eat my oatmeal and I feel physical energy through my body.

It is that as well.

It is that as well.

But it's the source of all of the energy.

It's the source of what allows the digestive system to actually digest food,

Right?

Turns the heat on.

It's the source of breath.

What is beyond breath?

What moves the breath?

What moves the plants?

What moves the planet?

The primal source is kundalini in everything.

And then we have that access to our system within us.

Does that make sense?

Put a yes in the chat if you hear me,

If you get me on that point.

Start with that.

That's the solid foundation.

Teaching Principles 101.

Teach solid foundations first so you guys get it.

But you got to tell me if you get it first.

Then I'll continue,

Right?

Tell me that you get it.

Tell me you can resonate.

Tell me you feel it.

Good.

All right.

We got some yeses.

Good.

Good,

Good,

Good,

Good thumbs.

Okay.

So there's a primal source of everything.

And then we have access to that,

Right?

We have access to that.

Because we are also a living being,

Just like our planet is a living being,

Right?

So there's a life force.

My brand is basically life force.

I'll tell you more about my story in a moment,

But I basically made a deal with this thing,

This entity,

This force,

That I would be the one that will share it with the world in the most powerful and authentic way by allowing it to move through me.

So I made a deal.

Now it's my brand.

Because it's like this is the thing I work for,

Right?

So kundalini,

Life force.

Life force means kundalini,

Right?

Kundalini is just a word that might resonate with people more,

Right,

In spiritual circles.

Kundalini.

We can wield this.

However,

Here's an example of kundalini out of control.

My father used to get quite angry.

Maybe you guys can relate.

Have you got an angry father?

My father used to get quite angry when he was stressed,

Right,

When he was having a lot.

I love my father,

So I'm not going to speak about him in vain because I see people doing that.

And I even did that myself.

I'd speak about my own parents in vain.

How rude!

How rude!

Just because I had things I didn't sort out within myself.

So I was judging them.

Judging my dad for being angry,

Right?

He was angry because he was stressed.

Working too hard,

Working to support a family.

So when he was angry,

He'd blurt out,

He'd shout,

And he'd just flip,

Right?

His fire would be on.

That's kundalini coming out.

It can result in anger.

Frustration.

The whole body's fired up.

The kundalini isn't flowing effectively.

It's getting stuck in certain chakras.

Which I'll tell you about as well.

It's getting stuck in certain chakras.

So it can get stuck in our safety response.

I feel threatened,

So I'm going to get fiery and angry.

Or I'm going to implode.

That's the other thing.

My dad would shout.

He'll explode.

For me,

Most of my life,

I never shouted.

I imploded.

Who's an imploder here,

Or who's an exploder?

Put it in the chat.

Are you an imploder or an exploder?

How does your frustration,

Anger,

Resentment manifest in your body?

Implosive or explosive?

You're either one.

You have to be honest with yourself.

Even I was.

Be honest.

Exploder or imploder?

Neither is bad,

By the way.

I'm not trying to judge any of you guys.

I even put myself in here.

I even put my dad in there,

Right?

This is the human experience.

Put it in the chat.

Own it.

Come on.

Own it.

Bothered.

Yeah,

Perhaps that's implosive.

If it's not coming out,

You're kind of just keeping it inside.

Oh,

You can be both.

Yeah,

You can.

Exactly.

It's not like a one size,

But it's tendencies we have,

Right?

And this is why things like astrology and star signs and things like that,

Personality types,

Horoscopes,

They exist.

Because we have tendencies.

But we are not fixed to those horoscopes and star signs.

We're not fixed.

Everyone is a mixture ultimately,

Right?

But we lean towards certain tendencies.

My leaning is implosive,

Right?

So own it.

Put it in the chat.

That's how kundalini can sometimes arise in an unhelpful way.

If it's not moving through us,

Right?

Anger comes up.

Because it mixes with our psychological patterns of who we are,

Our defense systems,

Our ego.

Who knows the word ego,

Right?

I'm right.

You're wrong.

You should do this.

Should,

Should,

Should,

Should.

We're built from our childhood of being trained as almost like mini-soldiers.

You should be like this.

Why aren't you doing that?

And again,

There's nothing wrong with that.

This is all just the human experience.

I want you guys to really know this is the human experience.

Nothing's wrong,

But things can be improved,

Right?

Right?

Can things be improved?

You know what I'm saying?

Can you get what I'm saying here,

Guys?

Do you get the angle I'm trying to teach you here when I'm talking about this kundalini?

I want you to see it all as helpful.

I want you to see your pain as helpful.

I want you to see everything as helpful.

It's just that we can improve things.

If I had a pipe and the pipe,

You know,

I'm in Bali right now and there's not much water pressure coming out of the pipes.

Hardly any water.

It's like dripping out.

I'm not even showering properly because it's like dripping out.

Water's coming out.

The pipe could be stronger.

If the pipes are stronger in our system,

We flow better.

We're more potent.

Everything's better,

Right?

That's what I'm trying to lean you guys towards.

That's how I teach.

That's how I coach.

Okay,

So that's kundalini 101.

And then I'll tell you a little bit more about how else it can manifest.

It can manifest in confusion.

Who am I?

Because there's another thing that happens is kundalini doesn't just sometimes get stuck in our body as anger,

As heat.

It can also go into our mind.

So our mind becomes so racy and we're thinking so much.

This was my biggest challenge growing up.

I was thinking so much that it was hurting me.

Can you guys relate to thinking so much that you're just so in your head?

And this is a very common problem.

It still happens to me time to time as well.

I'm human,

Right?

There's so much energy in the brain and it just drives you crazy.

Can you relate to that?

Put a yes in the chat.

That's kundalini as well.

Kundalini is thoughts.

It generates energy as thoughts,

Right?

Some might say it's thoughts that come first.

Okay,

But where do the thoughts come from?

They're running off something.

There's a system.

There's a spinning wheel.

The car has an engine.

That's life force.

That's kundalini.

So my mission as a coach,

The way I work people one-on-one is,

Hey,

We're not going to go direct to try and fix your thoughts and your psychology.

I want to look at your kundalini.

I want to look at your energy,

Your life force.

Because that's what's supplying all of this stuff.

If the flow is clear,

You become clear.

So we don't have to jangle our thoughts around and do all this mind analysis,

You know?

So that's a little bit about kundalini.

And then I'll tell you a bit more about my experience.

And then I'm going to tell you how to activate these.

I'm going to talk about three chakras today out of seven.

How you have to activate them.

I'm going to show you a bit of that,

Give you a little bit of a preview.

And then I'll also talk a bit more about kundalini and activating it.

So my journey,

I got into this whole thing through bodybuilding.

It's a very non-conventional approach.

I got into all of the personal development thing through lifting weights.

Strange,

You may say,

Right?

There's loads of people that are lifting weights out there,

Fitness influencers.

They're focused on the fitness,

The body,

Right?

I did it because I had such a racing mind.

I did it because I had social anxiety.

I couldn't speak like this.

I would never have done this,

Ever,

Because there's so many eyes on me.

How do I prepare for that?

How do I make myself sound good?

I'm nervous.

I don't want to be in front of people.

I want to be in the background.

I'm scared.

I can't even talk to people,

You know?

I couldn't even talk in front of groups,

In front of family.

I couldn't share things.

I felt uncomfortable.

Always putting on these masks and cover-up stories.

I was always trying to get out of things,

Trying to find comfort.

Can anyone relate to that?

Any of those social anxiety symptoms?

Would you identify with social anxiety?

Put it in the chat.

Just be honest.

I wish I could have gone to sessions like this when I was struggling.

I had big struggles like this,

And I had nowhere to turn to.

Frozen again.

Am I still here?

Someone else said definitely,

So I think I'm still here.

Okay,

Hopefully I'm still here.

Oh,

Okay,

You are frozen.

Okay,

Good.

Yeah,

So social anxiety.

Who else has social anxiety?

Who would relate to that?

I didn't have anywhere to turn.

All I had was going in my head,

Judging myself,

Trying to cover it up,

To be honest.

I was trying to pretend it wasn't there,

And trying to act strong,

And really I was avoiding so many situations.

I was avoidant.

I was so avoidant.

I would avoid having a conversation with my friends.

If they said,

Come here,

How about we go out here?

I would say no,

And I'd make up an excuse.

Lies,

Straight lies.

I would say no,

I can't,

Because I'd think of a really clever story.

I can't because of this.

A story that they can't even challenge because it was so clever.

Only because I wanted to escape any pressure of being seen,

Being intimate in groups,

Being intimate with people.

I found that very challenging.

Being humiliated,

Judged,

And sometimes I wasn't conscious of that.

All I knew was this terrible danger feeling,

Right?

Can you guys relate to that?

Maybe you're not conscious of those thoughts.

Your body's just in flames.

That's why I talk about the body,

Because in this personal development industry,

So many people don't talk about it properly.

There's a bias of like,

Okay,

You've got to work on your mind,

And then there's another whole bias of the body.

It's not bringing it together properly,

Right?

That's what Kundalini does.

Kundalini brings everything together.

I basically went on a journey of yoga,

Let's say.

Bodybuilding was my thing first.

It was the only thing that helped me relax and feel strong for the first time.

I felt like I could control that feeling of shame and pain and judgment and feeling like I'm worthless,

Because bodybuilding gave me something where I can actually change myself for the first time.

I thought I was stuck.

I literally thought I was one of those dolls that have dysfunctions that you can't fix.

Bodybuilding gave me hope.

I could change something.

Wow,

Look,

I'm changing things in the mirror.

Wow,

Amazing.

So it was my first stint into self-improvement,

And I was committed.

I would go to the gym when it was snowing.

I would work out.

And even now,

I'd work out.

I'd always find a way to work out,

Because it anchors me into empowerment,

Right?

So basically then,

I became known for it.

I'd be walking around in muscles.

Everyone was like,

Wow,

You've gotten so strong.

However,

There was still this feeling of inadequacy.

It was still covering something up.

So only when I got into yoga,

About nine years ago,

I went into my first yoga class.

I write this in my book as well.

If anyone's interested in my book,

You can check it out.

It's called The Power Centers.

It's based on the chakras.

It's based on kundalini as well.

I walked into a class,

Because this pretty girl was going to this class,

Right?

First ever time I'd been to a yoga class,

Only because there's a pretty girl there.

And I was like,

Okay,

I'll come along.

Let's go.

Okay,

Cool.

This seems fun.

You seem friendly.

You seem nice.

Let's go along.

Little did I know that one class changed my life.

I was the only guy in there.

This big bodybuilder.

And I felt relaxed for the first time in my life.

So then I got fascinated by yoga.

I turned my discipline of muscles into yoga.

I applied the same commitment,

Discipline,

Practicing breath practices every day,

Reading books about kundalini,

Trying things out,

Right?

I'm a test and learn kind of guy,

Versus theory alone.

Test and learn.

Do things,

Learn.

Do things,

Learn.

So I learned the secrets of kundalini through practice,

Through learning.

And then I continued learning.

I took my 500-hour kundalini course,

Actually quite recently,

In the last few years.

But I knew a lot of it already.

However,

It helped me strengthen it,

Right?

I've done a lot of breath practices.

And there's a lot.

There's a lot that's happened,

Basically,

That's allowed me to become this kundalini man.

And then the chakras come with the kundalini.

So that's who I am.

I'll coach people one-on-one.

Sometimes one of you guys might message me,

Saying,

Hey,

Raj,

I can't believe what you were saying today.

It resonated so much with me.

That's what I get.

I get messages like that,

Right?

Where did you come from,

Raj?

It feels like you just came at the right time.

So then I might end up working with people one-on-one,

Or they might come to group things that I'm hosting privately.

And that's basically what I do.

That's why I get to work online,

Anywhere in the world,

Because I made my business about the thing I care about most,

Which is freeing people,

Right?

Freeing a voice.

Freeing our voice.

Letting us to be ourselves.

And kundalini has done that for me.

And I haven't shared that much,

Powerfully,

About it before.

But I'm going to do more today.

So that's a bit about me.

It's framing up me.

I hope that makes sense,

And I hope that resonates with some of you guys.

I see there's a few people who say social anxiety.

Definitely,

Yeah.

Thanks for being honest.

And sometimes maybe it's a different kind of anxiety that some of you guys experience,

Right?

Maybe it's just self-doubt when going for a new job,

Or you want to start a new career,

Or you're in a relationship.

That's another key area where you're doubting your worth in a relationship,

Or someone's taking advantage of your nice ways.

I often attract people who are the nice people,

Overly nice,

People-pleasing,

Right?

Because their power has been dampened sometimes.

Just like it was for me.

I didn't feel my power.

I just followed along with what other people said and did,

And I didn't step into the power.

Kundalini has allowed me to unleash that.

So,

Slowing myself down now.

I hope that's resonating with you.

Where does Kundalini live?

I'm going to give you a little map or a tour.

And then I'm going to give you some practical ways that you can start unleashing this,

Right?

That's probably what you're most interested in.

How,

Raj?

How do I do this now?

You've told me about it.

Tell me,

Show me how to do this.

Showing you,

I would like to do with a lot of care and attention,

Where I can be there to really mentor and guide you,

Right?

However,

There's a lot of other people that can do that as well.

Hopefully,

If you find a good,

Reliable person.

So,

I'll give you some ways that you can start exploring that,

Right?

And then you can decide what to do.

Kundalini,

Where does it live?

It lives in our lower hip area,

Let's just say.

Lower hip area.

So,

Who's familiar with chakras?

Put a yes in the chat if you know what chakras are.

And if you don't,

I'll put a little brief sentence together,

Let's just say.

Okay,

There's some yeses,

Good.

Good,

Good,

Good,

Good,

Good,

Good,

Good.

All right,

Chakras,

Chakras,

Chakras.

They are vortexes of energy.

I'm quite a scientist,

As some of you guys might know.

I try to talk in scientific terms,

But still spiritual.

Not like spiritual woo,

Woo,

Woo,

Woo,

Woo.

And not overly geek scientist.

I'm trying to blend the two together.

I'm quite logical,

Right?

My dad's a mechanic,

So I probably get it from my dad.

So,

Wheels of energy,

Vortexes.

It's very common sense,

If you really think about it,

Right?

You don't have to believe in anything spiritual.

In the heart area,

There has to be a vortex of energy.

Why?

Because there's pumping going on in there.

That's a chakra.

There's a pumping.

There's a joining of energy from all over the body.

The heart is emitting power,

Right?

It's a power center.

That's what my book's called,

Power Centers.

It's a power center,

The heart.

And then our sex organs,

Let's just call them.

Obviously,

There's a lot of energy there,

Right?

It's a spinning vortex,

Powerful vortex of energy there that allows us to make children,

Right?

There has to be stuff there that's potent and powerful.

And that's where,

Generally,

That's where kundalini is living,

Right?

That's where it's living in that area.

That's where we have the ability to move it through the other centers.

So,

It's living.

Let's talk about that.

That's the first of the three chakras I'm going to talk about today.

It's the creation center,

I call it.

Some of you might relate it to the sacral chakra,

If you want to use that language.

And this area is so important because it's our identity.

It's our feeling self.

And kundalini,

When it's not felt,

When we don't allow ourselves to feel things,

When we don't feel our creative power,

And it starts getting blocked,

Kundalini can turn into this.

.

.

Have you ever met someone who's just annoyed and.

.

.

Who's just annoyed.

They're pent up.

They're just so pent up.

They're just getting angry at everyone.

They got pent up energy down there,

Right?

Got pent up energy down there.

So,

There can sometimes be a knotting.

And it's because the energy is not flowing through that center.

I had so many problems with this.

So many.

And it would result in me being egoic or trying to prove myself to try and claim back.

I was trying to claim back some power.

Because I had all this social anxiety.

In other ways,

I tried to claim power in a conversation or try and be better than someone or judge someone in my head because I'm trying to make them look worse so I feel better about myself,

Which is feeling inadequate all the time.

So,

If I think that about them,

Oh,

Maybe I feel better and more powerful,

Right?

Anyone feel that one?

Anyone feel that?

Again,

I don't want to frame this negatively.

I just want to show you how it shows up sometimes.

And I knew that this wasn't helpful for me,

Right?

So,

A way you can unlock this first center that I'm going to talk about,

This chakra,

The sacral chakra,

Where the kundalini is able to really burst and live,

There's a few things you can do.

So,

Breath practices that are focused on bringing your body into play.

Not just breath practices.

Bring your body into play.

So,

For example,

Hip movements.

Doing hip-focused yogic exercises.

Asanas.

Breathing there as well.

Really opening the hips.

You know,

Have you ever seen.

.

.

Is there any Latinos in the house?

Any Latinos in the house?

Put a yes in the chat.

And I'm going to make an assumption.

And I don't know if it's always true,

But I'm going to make an assumption about Latinos in a moment.

Hopefully you take this in a good way.

Any Latinos in the house?

Put a yes in the chat.

And I like to use examples,

Right?

So,

Listen to my examples,

So it doesn't get too logical.

I want to try and make it examples.

Any Latinos in the house?

Anyone from Latin America here?

Okay.

Maybe there's not.

Okay.

So,

When I was traveling around Latin America,

I would just notice that the men and the women,

They were just really good dancers,

Right?

And I used to always ask them.

I was so fascinated.

I was like,

How do you make this look so easy and so natural?

And they just do it.

It's just in them.

Colombians and Brazilians.

We had a Brazilian here earlier.

Are you still here,

Brazilian?

They're just moving their body,

Right?

They're feeling their body.

It's coming from the hips.

They're feeling pleasure in that as well.

They're enjoying it,

Right?

They're really,

Really enjoying feeling their body moving,

Hearing music,

And the music is in their body,

And it's moving,

Right?

And I couldn't dance,

You know?

I couldn't dance.

I was a very awkward British man coming and trying to dance in these salsa places,

And I was all over the place,

Stiff and strange and so stiff.

And eventually took some classes,

Right?

And the guy was so suave,

Right?

The guy that was teaching was so suave.

The girl was so suave.

And ever since then,

I learned,

Wow,

Like how good does it feel to feel that energy in us?

So I'm not telling you to go and dance all day long,

But I'm saying feel your hips.

Feel the energy,

The life force moving through you,

Right?

That feeling sense.

Feel the pleasure in it.

Feel the pleasure of being in your body.

Feel pleasure of having a body,

Right?

Being in the body.

That's what will open up that sacred center,

That creative center.

When we feel things.

I was blocking off so many feelings in my life.

Oh my God.

This was a big challenge for me.

And that meant the kundalini couldn't rise.

Basically,

The goal of kundalini is we want to allow this energy to move through our spinal cord and ignite our entire body,

Our system,

Our stomach is cleaner.

It's moving through the stomach and cleaning it.

It's moving through our throat so we can speak gracefully and potently.

That's why I can speak like this,

Because this kundalini is moving me.

Not my head,

Right?

None of this is coming from my head.

I'm not even thinking about what to say.

Kundalini is moving this,

Right?

That's how any dancer can dance.

Any singer can sing.

Because they have activated kundalini in that center.

And they might not even know that.

They might not use that language,

But that's what I'm sharing right now.

So we want kundalini to move through our body to cleanse it,

Purify it.

Kundalini has the power to purify us.

Right?

It will purify the stomach.

So there's all this gut microbiome stuff these days.

Hey,

Eat this because it will clean your gut.

Eat,

Eat,

Eat.

Do this gut microbiome cleanse.

And that's true.

But so many people would do the health cleanse and still the problems arise because the mind is causing problems in the stomach sometimes,

Right?

And what does kundalini do?

It overtakes the mind.

It's more powerful than the mind.

And it can cleanse the body at the same time.

It's a purification.

So that's the purpose of kundalini.

And when I talked about that first center that I was talking about earlier,

The sacral center,

In our hips,

That allows it to start moving.

So I've done this movement in kundalini yoga where you're just going around in a circle and you're moving your hips.

You're feeling your spine like a spoon in a cup.

Right?

And you could try that right now.

Let's do it right now.

Let's do it right now so it's not just theory.

If you want to.

You don't have to.

But I invite you to just move your hips and just feel like you're stirring a cup with your spine.

You're stirring a cup with your spine.

Right?

So you're just moving forward and back.

Just making rotations.

Making space in there.

And feel it.

Feel the pleasure of like there's a body here.

The whole body here.

Feel your body.

And then reverse and go in the other direction.

Feel it.

I was so disconnected with my body.

When I started feeling it,

I started feeling,

Oh that feels kind of nice.

It feels kind of nice to feel like my body and my hips.

You know?

I ended up taking dance classes and it was the most amazing thing ever.

For this stiff,

Heady person.

You know?

All right.

If you did it,

Tell me how you feel in the chat.

Let's slow down.

I don't want to move too fast.

Let's have a little space to slow down.

What's your reflection so far based on what I said?

What have you taken in from everything I've said so far?

What is something that you learned today that was new?

What feels new and fresh and exciting?

Share in the chat.

I would love to know.

How Kundalini can change your life.

Yeah.

Good.

Thanks for sharing that.

It can.

When properly,

Precisely used.

Kundalini is like a nuclear,

It's like a nuclear bomb.

It's like having a flamethrower.

If you use,

If you use a flamethrower properly to burn something down that's in the way and it's not useful,

Then it's good.

But if the flamethrower is pointed at myself and I'm scared,

Oh my God,

I'm scared all the time.

That was me.

I was living in fight or flight because my Kundalini was so like shaky.

It was unstable.

So Kundalini wasn't helpful at that point.

And this is the thing.

There's a lot of Kundalini activation processes out there where people will get people to do intense breath works and let's do this.

But there's an implication to that.

Yogic science,

Which is my lineage,

Indian,

And I'm very proud of sharing yogic ancient science in a modern way.

Yogic science states that we must be able to stabilize our energy centers.

We have to stabilize the energy.

Otherwise,

Then it does become,

I'm not going to use the word dangerous because that might scare you guys.

It becomes uncomfortable.

Kundalini has to be treated very carefully with a proper guide,

Someone who's been through it,

Not just knows the theory and has read off someone else and then diluted it.

It's actually been through it,

Understands it meticulously.

Then it's powerful.

It can do a lot of things.

Let me see what else you did in the chat.

When I started meditating,

I felt energy.

I didn't know what it was and I do now.

Oh,

Good.

I'm so glad that you feel that.

Again,

It's very uncomfortable.

You start feeling things.

You start seeing things.

You might get stimulated.

You might look at someone from the opposite sex and start thinking things and feeling things in your body,

Right?

And that's okay.

That's just energy moving,

Right?

It's fine.

You might start getting angry.

That's a thing that can happen from a lot of Kundalini.

You might start getting frustrated.

You might not want to do your job anymore.

You might want to quit your job.

You might have an urging to start a new business.

It's pushing out who we really are and our life potential.

It will destroy everything that's in the way.

Once you unleash it,

It will destroy everything that's in the way and it will show you.

It will show you and you cannot ignore it.

If you ignore it,

It will bug you.

You'll start getting more tense and more angry.

There's no going back.

That's the thing I usually say to people.

If you open this,

If you start having existential crises,

You don't know what to do with your life and you're questioning things and you start getting angry at people and this and that,

You've opened a box.

And now,

It's very difficult to go backwards.

You have to keep moving forward with this.

That's what I realized when I was like,

Oh my God,

I wish I didn't explore these things.

And at the same time,

I'm so glad I did.

I'm so glad I understood it now.

Because I know how to work with it now and it's helpful for me versus driving me crazy,

Right?

So if you're feeling energy,

Has anyone else feel that experience?

Like existential crises or dark night of the soul as they call it or whatever else.

Have you guys experienced that?

If so,

Put it in the chat.

Be honest,

Share.

And yeah,

There's more of us.

There's many people going through this.

Some people might take Ayahuasca and that might open up all sorts of stuff,

Right?

Plant medicines become so popular like going to get a coffee from a shop.

It's crazy.

Yeah,

You're working on probably.

Okay,

Great.

All right,

So that's the first center.

Now,

I'm going to tell you about the second center which is very important when working with Kundalini is the stomach.

What I've noticed through my experience is that ego lives in the stomach.

Throw in the chat right now.

What does ego mean to you?

Say it.

What does ego mean to you?

What does it mean to you?

How's it showed up for you?

What's your understanding of ego?

What's your understanding of ego?

Put it in the chat right now.

It's going to be so helpful for what I'm about to say because I want you to feel this.

I want you to experience this,

What I'm about to say about the stomach.

This is another center.

This is another center.

Very important.

I'm talking about three centers out of seven today.

I'm not going through all of them,

Three chakras.

I'm going to explain three very important ones to work on.

What does ego mean to you?

Tell me.

I want to see three comments at least and then I'm going to continue.

And I'll tell you how you can destroy the ego and go beyond it.

Something that people strive for,

Actually.

You know,

There's Eckhart Tolle's book where he talks about the power of now and the ego,

Right?

It opened me up to it when I first read it.

I was like,

Whoa.

Oh,

There's this part of me which is not me,

But this ego part of me.

Whoa.

It hit me with the insight.

It's like,

Damn,

I got this ego.

It was helpful,

Really helpful to know it.

Overprotective directions.

Okay,

What else?

Two more people.

Put something in the chat.

Who's going to do it?

What is ego?

You know it.

If you're scared to say what ego is,

You're protecting your ego.

I'm going to tell you that straight.

I've told people when I've coached them.

I'm like,

You're speaking out of your ego right now.

Do you know that?

And if they're open enough with me being that direct with them,

They will see.

Oh,

Wow.

Thanks for telling me,

Raj.

I didn't even realize I was doing it.

I thought it was me.

So I want to call it out all the time.

It gets out of hiding zone then.

You know?

What is the ego?

I've lost the chat.

Oh,

Yeah,

I'm back,

I think.

Am I back?

Yeah,

Okay,

Good.

All right,

So ego.

Let's continue on to that.

And by the way,

We're not trying to judge ourselves and hate our ego that we have.

That's a common mistake.

It's a part of us.

It's our protection mechanism.

It's the identity we're trying to protect because it feels safe to do that.

It feels like we're someone.

If I'm someone,

Then I'm not this nobody or I'm not weak,

Right?

I'm not weak.

If I have this ego identity,

It means I'm someone.

So it's our well-meaning.

It's well-meaning,

Right?

It's trying to feel whole.

It's trying to feel whole.

It's constantly working,

Working,

Working to try and feel whole.

It's working all day to try and feel whole.

When I have this,

I'm going to feel whole.

When I have this relationship,

I'll feel whole.

When I have this money,

This,

I'll feel whole.

If I'm better than that person,

I'll feel better.

I'll feel better about myself.

That's what ego is.

And the ego tends to live in the stomach because what happens when you feel under threat?

Stomach tenses up.

I'm guarding.

I'm in fight mode.

Fight.

I had a big challenge with this.

I wasn't rude to anyone.

That wasn't that kind of ego.

Like,

Hey,

Flamboyant.

Show off,

You know.

Mine was,

Again,

Very implosive.

Very implosive.

I wouldn't show myself.

Actually,

I had a challenge with even confidence.

With,

Like,

Saying things that were true.

With showing my skills and ability.

Can anyone relate to that one?

You have skills and ability.

You're good at something,

But you're scared to show it to people.

You find it difficult to be confident with what you have.

That's also what ego can do.

Put a yes in the chat.

Put your hand up if that's you.

You feel scared to take actions to speak your truth.

Yeah,

There we go.

We got some yeses.

So that's another challenge with this ego,

Because it's like we're trying to be this protective mechanism,

This identity we think we are,

So it's scary to be who we really are.

It lives in the stomach,

And the stomach region is where we eat food.

So again,

Coming back to logic,

Where we eat food,

Where energy is distributed from.

I put this in my book as well.

I talk about this center as the distribution of energy.

It's a storehouse.

So it allows for heat to move through our body.

We eat things,

And then what happens?

There's something working in our stomach.

Heat gets distributed through our body.

So we need this.

We need this to be useful and powerful.

So I've done a lot of kundalini yoga practices,

And I can suggest a few that you could try,

Things that you can try on your own,

Right,

That aren't going to be overly intense.

So you can do breath of fire,

A breath of fire practice.

Anyone have a breath of fire practice?

I believe I have one somewhere.

If anyone's interested,

I could send you a guided version of that,

Where you can watch me showing you.

So there's a breath of fire practice,

Which allows you to pump heat into your body.

And we'll do a very short version of that in a moment.

So pumping heat into the body means we activate that solar center.

It's the sun within us,

And this allows the kundalini to be pumped through the body,

Right?

So kundalini to be pumped through the body,

And it clears the system again.

It's purifying.

Fire purifies things,

Right?

Fire purifies.

So we need to be so good at this.

This is actually,

Even in Tibetan tantra,

They talk about the stomach as being the most important center,

Because if you can use the stomach well,

Then you can distribute energy well.

There's a balanced energy.

So if you focus on this stomach area and you get really good at this,

Your life will change,

100%.

That's what it did to me.

As soon as I got good at breath practices and fire practices,

I became more confident.

I could actually speak my truth a bit better,

Because I wasn't dampened and overly slot-like.

I had fire in me moving,

Right?

Food gets cleansed.

Junk that's in your stomach gets cleansed through this.

It's powerful.

And kundalini is doing that,

Right?

It's clearing.

It's cleansing.

That's what it can do.

So we'll do a really quick demonstration,

Just so you can feel this heat I'm talking about.

So it's not a theory.

You're not getting bored,

Saying,

Oh,

Raj,

Yeah,

Whatever.

Yeah,

It sounds good.

Let me show you.

I like to lead by example,

Right?

If you're up for that,

Are you up for that?

Put a yes in the chat.

Are you ready?

Are you awake?

Do you want to do this with me?

Do you want to practice?

Let's get in practice.

That's a personal trainer in me,

The bodybuilder.

I like to put people through workouts.

I'll show you.

I don't need you to intellectually understand this.

This is what I would do if I'm working with someone.

I would do a lot more showing and practical things where they can get real results,

Right?

All right,

We've got some yeses.

So very simple.

I'm turning the camera down so you can see my stomach a little bit.

So hopefully you can.

.

.

Can you see that?

Let me see.

So basically,

I'm sitting like this and I'm pulling my stomach inward as I breathe out.

And I'm only breathing through the nose.

Only breathing through the nose and I'm pulling my stomach inward.

Let me just pull my top up a little bit so you can see.

So.

.

.

Just look at the stomach area,

Right?

So.

.

.

Pulling the stomach in as I breathe out.

Can you see that?

So it's breathing out on its own naturally.

So it's breathing in on its own naturally.

I'm not worried about that.

And I'm just pulling the stomach in as I breathe out powerfully.

And breathing through my nose.

Okay.

Is that clear?

Breathing through the nose,

Stomach in powerfully.

And the other thing to really focus on,

This is going to help you even more,

Is your awareness.

Your awareness is on the.

.

.

Is on the point between your eyebrows.

The awareness is on the point between your eyebrows.

This is important.

This is your focus point.

So we'll do it now.

We'll do this together.

I'll close my eyes.

I'll start and then you guys just join in and then I'll tell you when you're finished,

Right?

All good?

Clear?

Yeah,

Okay,

We got someone saying very clear.

Okay,

Good.

Thanks,

Michelle.

All right,

Close your eyes.

I'm going to start.

And you want to feel heat.

You want to visualize heat and fire.

You want to visualize you are fire right now.

I want you to think of yourself as a fireball.

So all these little cues help,

Right?

Think of yourself as a fireball.

Think of me with you,

Guiding you,

Right?

As if I was next to you.

As if I was there supporting you.

As if you could feel my energy around you.

There,

As your trainer,

Right?

Supporting you.

That's so important.

Sometimes doing these things alone,

It feels weird.

Some people won't do them.

But if you know that someone is there guiding you,

Just,

You'll feel better,

Right?

So imagine I'm there with you,

Guiding you and it's safe,

It's powerful.

It's going to be great,

Right?

Let's start.

Point between the eyebrows.

I'm just focusing on that point between the eyebrows with eyes closed.

Breathing through the nose only.

Let's start.

Breathing.

Practice.

Breathe out,

Pulling the stomach.

Breath in as passive.

So just start now.

Feel yourself as a fireball,

Purifying your body.

New breath is coming in,

Cleansing,

Refreshing you.

Heat.

Keep going.

Go at an average pace.

You don't have to go crazy.

Feel the power of everyone here doing this with you,

Together.

Okay,

Now stop.

Immediately stop.

And just let your breathing go back to normal.

Keep your eyes closed.

Notice your body.

And slowly open your eyes.

Tell me what you're feeling in the chat.

This is kundalini we're working with.

We want the kundalini to move through our bodies.

And the stomach is the ignition that helps us to do that.

These practices should be things that everyone knows.

And that's my mission.

I want people to know these things.

I want you to know your energy inside out and be a master of it.

Almost teary.

Yeah,

Feel free to share more of that.

Tell us why,

If it feels safe in this space to do so,

Right?

No pressure from me.

I don't want anyone to feel pressured.

Only support.

Sometimes I will be fiery and direct.

And I just wish people take that as supportive rather than feeling like,

Oh my God,

This is too direct,

Raj.

I just want you guys to feel supported,

Right?

With that fire that I bring.

Yeah,

Not sure why.

That's okay as well,

Right?

Not sure why.

It happens.

It uncovers things.

And we're going to go into another center in a moment.

That might be even more powerfully uncovering things.

Good.

Breath can do so many powerful things.

I went to one of these workshops in Bali a few weeks ago,

Actually.

One of my clients.

So I basically will coach coaches sometimes or I'll coach professionals who are doing breath work.

Or,

You know,

I'm coaching people that are doing good in the world a lot of the time,

Right?

And that just ended up happening because as I started doing this myself,

People approached me.

They said,

Raj,

Like you built this career helping people.

I want to do the same.

Can you help me?

I end up becoming a business mentor for spirit-driven people,

Right?

Purpose-driven people helping professions.

So anyway,

And I love doing that,

By the way,

Because it helps me to make bigger impact,

Right?

If I can show people these things and then they're helping other people,

Whoa,

I'm hitting so many people in the world then.

That's great.

I like to play that role.

But anyway,

My client,

Alex,

He moved to Bali three years ago.

That's one of the things I helped him with.

His dream was to be independent financially,

Location-wise as well.

So I helped him to create that.

And I went to his breathwork session recently,

And it was insane.

We were doing this powerful breathwork.

He was guiding me,

Right?

Even though I've been his mentor and his coach,

I'm still willing to learn from experts like him.

It was an honor.

And then,

Basically,

I had all these tears coming up.

It hit me all of a sudden.

Tears bursted out.

My heart was bursting.

And it was insane.

And he just touched my heart.

And even more tears came up from that,

Meaning that I'm cared for.

It's transferred,

Doesn't it?

Like I'm trying to transfer energy to all of you guys right now so you feel like you're almost being mentored or coached by me in a way,

Right,

That you have this,

Like,

Taster of what it feels like.

That's what I want.

I want you guys to feel a taster of what it feels like to be supported and cared for and someone who's on your side,

Right?

So,

Yeah,

I had so many tears coming out,

And I felt great after.

And I even said to him after,

I felt your hand on my back,

And it made me feel even more like stuff coming out,

Just to know that you were there.

It was one of these intense breathwork sessions.

It was insane.

It was insane.

And then him being the great human he is,

He didn't even take that as putting it on himself.

He's like,

Yeah,

Raj,

Sometimes stuff like that comes up,

And I'm glad that you experienced that.

You know,

Great man,

Great man.

So,

Yeah,

Things can come up when we do these practices,

And being held by someone that you can trust is so important,

Right?

Instead of just being alone in the room.

That's basically how I did most of this,

And I still do.

I still do a lot of lone practices,

Right?

That's how I've been wired.

I'm sure you guys,

Too.

If you're here and you're liking my stuff,

You're probably like me.

That's what happens.

The people I end up working with are mostly like me.

So you're probably used to being a lone ranger.

Are you?

Tell me in the chat.

Go on.

Be honest.

Be honest.

Be honest.

Are you like me?

Are you one of those lone rangers who likes to work on things alone,

Likes to learn things,

Read books,

And do self-work,

And you hardly ever will let someone into the world because it feels kind of weird,

And maybe you don't want to look vulnerable or like you need help.

That was me for a very long time.

I get it.

I completely get it.

It can feel unsafe,

Right?

It makes sense.

But then sometimes just being held is so nice.

I've realized that in these past years,

Having real good people.

And sometimes that's hard to find,

Right?

So I understand.

So yeah,

Doing these practices together,

I'm glad you're enjoying this and getting stuff out of it.

We're going to go deeper.

We've still got time.

How cool is that?

We've still got some time.

I set aside 90 minutes for this.

So that's the second center.

Kundalini will create tears sometimes.

It's inevitable that you will have tears coming out.

However,

I call it.

.

.

Here's a distinction.

Write this one down.

Write this down so you know forever.

I call it tears of liberation versus tears of entrapment.

Tears of liberation versus tears of entrapment.

What's the difference?

Put it in the chat if you know.

I'll tell you as well.

Tears of liberation.

Ah!

It's a sigh.

Ah!

Something's been released.

Ah!

Oh!

I was carrying that.

Whoa!

I was carrying that heavy load.

Oh my God!

Tears coming out.

It feels so good.

Good.

I want you to cry like that.

It's good.

Tears of entrapment are like we're stuck in the emotional story.

We're stuck.

It puts us into more stuck.

I'm crying because I'm worried and I'm creating more of that storing inside.

Right?

Tears of entrapment,

That is.

I want to liberate you.

Tears are good.

Right?

It's a release of emotions,

Blocks.

So,

That will come from the breath.

The breath pushes life force,

Kundalini,

Into our chakras.

That's what it can do,

Right?

And the stomach chakra is very pivotal to that.

Get very good at working with your stomach.

That includes what foods do you put in there.

If you know me,

I carry a blender with me.

I make smoothies even when I'm traveling.

I carry it somewhere over there.

I carry a blender because it's so important for me to eat fruits and find vegetables to blend and drink them.

Because that's loving my stomach.

My stomach loves that.

It loves having all the vitamins without having to take some stupid vitamin pill made in a lab.

It's ridiculous.

It's feeding on our insecurities and making us lazy.

I'll eat a vitamin pill.

Oh yeah,

It stays all natural.

It's okay.

No,

It's not.

And I'd say this because I learned from experience from taking all these vitamins.

Things like vitamin D and this and that.

And by the way,

I'm not your medical doctor.

So,

Please don't take this as I'm trying to tell you to stop everything.

If you need it,

If there's some deficiency,

Okay,

Maybe you take it.

Maybe,

Though,

You look at exploring what would it be like if you were to create all of that vibrancy within you through foods,

Right?

So,

I ended up doing it.

I used to eat junk.

As a bodybuilder,

I was searching for protein all day.

Any dudes in here can relate to that?

Protein,

Protein,

Protein all day.

All day,

I want some protein.

Protein,

I need protein,

Right?

So,

I was addicted to that.

I was addicted to that.

I was eating crap that was including protein.

Fried food,

Junk foods.

I changed that over time.

When kundalini awakened,

Funnily enough,

I didn't have to think about doing this through my head.

The kundalini transformed how I looked at food.

My tongue changed.

Hear me when I say that.

My tongue changed.

So,

Remember the centering point of this session.

Work on your kundalini and your food habits will change automatically.

You will not have to force yourself to do this because your body will reject junk food.

I can't.

I can't.

I will get physically sick and feel strange if I eat junk.

I can't even eat cake.

I don't eat cake on my birthday.

I told my parents,

I don't want it.

It's poison.

It feels like poison to me,

Right?

Kundalini needs a fresh,

Good supply of food.

Then it's powerful.

Otherwise,

It creates inflammation.

Inflammation is not good for us,

Right?

It inflames our mind as well.

So,

Foods are stomach.

That's the second sentence.

I want to move on now.

I could talk about this in more detail,

But I'm going to move on.

That's the second sentence.

I hope you found that useful.

I hope I shared enough that you take away some of this.

I'm not trying to ramble or judge or make anyone feel bad.

Please don't feel that.

I really just want you to get value from what I'm saying and find the gold in it.

Don't look at me as,

Oh my god,

Raj is carrying a blender and he doesn't eat cake.

I should do that.

I eat junk all the time.

No,

Don't judge yourself.

Just work on yourself.

Like I said,

When Kundalini is moving through,

You don't need so much effort in life because it will help you,

Right?

It will help you to see that you don't want this food anymore.

It will help you to see you don't want thoughts anymore.

I don't want to be around certain people anymore.

I don't want to wear shoes anymore sometimes,

You know?

So,

That's the second one.

Now I'm going to go into one more chakra.

Here's two options.

I could either go into the heart chakra,

Very sensitive area.

I might need a long time to talk about the heart chakra.

Or I'm going to talk about the throat.

Which one feels like it's most important for you,

You guys here?

Let's do a little vote.

Heart or throat?

Which one would you love to unleash more?

Heart or throat?

Heart or throat?

Heart or throat?

I'm going to do a little mental count.

I'm going to do an accurate count.

I don't have a polling system here.

I would if it was on Zoom.

By the way,

If anyone wants to come into an intimate Zoom container with me,

I'm going to be hosting something in the next few weeks.

Intimate,

More powerful,

Because we can have dialogues,

Right?

If anyone's interested,

Find me,

Message me,

Tell me you're interested,

And I will let you know when that's happening.

Throat.

Throat.

Throat.

I'm seeing a lot of throats so far.

Vote.

If you want heart,

Put your heart in the chat,

Because I will choose it if there's more of you.

Heart or throat?

Heart or throat?

Which one do you want to unlock more with the power of your kundalini?

Which one's more important for you?

Heart or throat?

Heart or throat?

Heart or throat?

Come on.

Take it or leave it.

This is time.

I'm going to share with you things that are going to change your life.

Take it.

Own it.

Claim it.

This is the time.

I'm very confident in that.

You can see that.

And I'm saying it from a very grounded confidence,

Something I was very challenged with for a long time.

And that's related to the throat.

So let's go for throat.

Let's go for throat today.

The voice.

The voice.

My biggest fear was public speaking.

I would have done anything,

Anything to avoid public speaking.

Anything.

Literally,

My heart would beat.

There's a story.

I'll tell you a little story.

I was hired into my first real job in the city of London.

So I'm from London,

Born and raised.

Hired in the city of London.

And he hired me because he saw me as a protege to him.

This amazing manager of mine.

I still talk to him now and then.

He follows my stories and he's like,

Oh my God,

Raj,

Look who you've become.

Because he knew me as this guy.

He literally said to me,

You're a shrinking violet.

Anyone know what the shrinking violet means?

I'm sure you do.

He said it to me direct,

Point blank.

You're like a shrinking violet,

Raj.

It's a flower that's wilted.

It's beautiful,

But it's not showing its beauty,

Right?

It's hiding it.

Shrinking violet,

He called me.

And it stuck with me forever.

Stuck with me forever.

I put it in my book.

I talk about it in my book a little bit as well.

Oh no,

In my new book.

I'm writing a second book right now.

And there's a whole chapter about shrinking violet.

Anyway.

I was in this job and he hired me because he saw some potential in me.

I don't know what he saw.

He saw something,

Right?

He's like,

I'm going to make you a success.

I was only 21 at the time.

It was my first real office job.

Big office,

International company.

I was wearing shirts and I was excited.

I was like,

Oh my God,

I'm in this cool job.

Wow,

Look,

I made it.

I was making like 24,

000 a year,

Which for me was so much,

So much money.

I was so proud.

However,

He was pushing me to become this great person.

He was my first ever mentor.

You can call it really.

He wanted me to be a success.

I was only 21 at the time.

20.

I don't even remember.

I think it was 20 or 21.

Yeah.

And he said,

Raj,

I'm going to get you in front of the department and speak.

I want everyone to see you and I want you to present in front of them.

Oh my God.

I was so angry at him.

I was angry.

I was like,

I'm not doing that.

He's trying to force me into something I didn't want to do.

He was trying to push me.

And just because he's my boss,

Do I have to do this?

I just listen to him because he's my boss.

Yeah,

I do.

I do.

And I was stuck.

I was so stressed out.

This presentation I want.

And you know what?

I only had to speak for about one minute.

One minute.

It wasn't like I was doing anything major.

One minute.

In front of about 40 people.

My biggest fear.

I was so scared.

Right.

And then it came like weeks in advance.

I'd be worried.

I'd be trying to find a way out of it.

I even told him.

I want to do this.

He's like,

Don't worry.

It's going to be fine.

I just did it.

Right.

I just followed along.

Okay.

Yeah.

Maybe I have to get over this thing.

I wasn't ready.

I was living in fear.

I was socially anxious.

Tense.

Scared.

Traumatized.

Really.

I didn't realize there's all that stuff going on.

Traumatized by my childhood.

I didn't realize that.

I just thought that.

Okay.

I just have to deal with it.

You know,

My fight or flight response was on all the time.

I just thought that was normal.

Right.

It wasn't.

So I get to the day.

And then the first thing I did was.

It was like 9 a.

M.

In the morning.

The talk.

And I go to a shop and I buy a bottle of vodka.

Right.

Morning time.

They were looking at me.

This is London.

There's weirdos all around London.

But they were looking at me like I'm a weirdo.

What are you doing?

It's 8 a.

M.

Sort of drinking that in the toilets at work.

In my shirt and suit.

Freaking out.

Like oh my god.

Like no.

I was in.

I was literally in a trauma response.

And obviously I didn't know that at the time.

I was completely freaking out.

Get up.

And then I'm sweating.

That's another thing that I had going on a lot.

I would be so hot.

Sweating.

Get up and I do it.

And I couldn't even speak.

I was choking my words.

Everyone was looking at me concerned.

Why is he sweating and red in the face?

So.

I used to go so bright red.

I used to go so bright red with anything.

People used to be shocked.

Like why is your face red?

I can't even hide that.

Anyone else have the face red thing?

Anyone feel that?

And by the way you might be thinking Raj.

Like doesn't seem like this could have been you.

Are you just telling us.

Like is this for real?

Yeah.

It's for real.

Red in the face.

Sweating.

Everyone's looking at me.

Like what's going on with this guy?

Who is this?

And disappointed or worried.

So worried.

Everyone's worried faces.

Like what's going on?

And then I ended it.

And then I was sweating.

Pouring down on the floor.

In this room.

Freaking out.

And I couldn't even get out of the room.

I didn't even.

I didn't.

I didn't want to walk out of the room.

Because like that makes me look weak.

Right?

Just stood there.

After the session he says to me.

Raj what happened there?

What was that?

And I said to him.

I told you I didn't want to do this.

And he felt bad.

And then eventually I left the job.

I quit.

Freaked out.

It's too much.

So I guess why I'm saying all of this.

Is this can be so limiting.

When we're not confident using our voices.

Right?

And I'm sure all of you guys can relate.

This was my biggest challenge in life.

And it's connected to all the chakras really.

But the throat is how we use our voices.

Right?

How do we get it out?

People often tell me.

They feel like constriction in their throat.

Have you ever felt constriction in your throat?

In this kind of throat area.

Where you can't really speak.

You're just like shutting something down.

You're not really being yourself.

You're not saying what you really think.

And then you're getting in your head about what to say.

Be honest.

Put it in the chat.

I'm not here to judge you.

I feel you.

I love.

I love meeting people like you.

Because I understand.

I went to a psychologist.

They didn't understand me.

Therapist.

They didn't understand.

Because they haven't felt it.

How can they help me really.

If they don't.

They've never felt it.

I was like.

So confused.

I asked them.

Have you experienced this?

No.

But I can tell you what to do.

Because I've written.

I've read the paperwork.

And the therapist worksheet.

And I've taken.

I'm a licensed therapist.

And this is what we do.

And this is what we say to people.

That's rubbish.

It's rubbish.

It's book therapy.

Psychological models.

Carl Jung says this.

So I'll tell you.

Because I'll follow and copy.

No.

No.

We need people who've had real experiences.

That's what I needed.

I never met someone like that though.

I never did.

I never did.

I ended up becoming the person that people meet.

And they say.

Oh my God.

I'm so glad that I met you.

Person I wish I could have met.

You know.

And I'm feeling myself getting a little bit emotional.

As I'm saying this.

So you know how challenging this can be.

I often forget.

You know.

Because I'm where I'm at now.

And I've moved past it.

But yeah.

It was very challenging.

So.

How do we free this thing?

How do we free our voices guys?

I'm going to tell you right now.

I'm going to share some things.

That are going to really help you.

Kundalini wants to move.

Through our entire body.

Like I said earlier.

It wants to move through the sacral area.

Because that's our expression of who we are.

That's our feeling sense.

Our hips feeling ourselves.

And then it wants to move through our stomach.

And then it wants to come out our throat.

So here's the quick answer.

Unfortunately.

Just working on the throat enough.

Is not going to be.

Most effective.

Sorry to tell you that.

If you go to a throat chakra healer.

And they start touching your throat.

And doing stuff there.

Sorry throat chakra healer.

No.

That ain't good enough.

You can't be a throat chakra healer.

And do some magic around my throat.

That ain't good enough.

I'm sorry.

It's a whole system that has to be worked.

For the throat to be free.

There are specific exercises.

So for example.

You can do this.

This is a kriya.

I'm just showing you a very simple version.

But me moving space around my throat like this.

And synchronizing my breath.

Try it now actually.

Try it with me.

Just.

Breathe in and out.

In.

Turn to the left.

Breathe out.

Turn to the right.

Just for a few seconds.

Feel it in your throat.

So stop.

Don't want to get dizzy.

That will create space in the throat.

We can do neck circles.

We can open up the physical area of it.

Because that's going to help the kundalini to reach the places that are not constricted.

Right.

So if there's more space.

That's what all yoga postures are for.

Yoga was designed for this.

Not to be.

Not to just be flexible.

Right.

Flexibility is what?

Flexibility is what?

Flexibility is there's more space.

For kundalini to rise.

All yoga is based of kundalini.

All yoga.

I'll repeat that.

All yoga is based of unleashing our kundalini.

It's just that many yoga teachers don't know that.

They don't know how to teach that.

They don't understand it.

So they'll teach only the physical postures.

Right.

Physical postures are only to create space in the body.

Kundalini is the next level on that.

It's the real work.

I call it.

The real work of liberation.

It's the work of liberation.

Freedom.

Energy mastery.

Potency.

Fire.

Presence.

All of that comes with this work.

So to work on the throat chakra.

We have to create space in our bodies.

So our throat is a bit more clear.

And we have to do certain practical exercises.

Like for example you could do chanting.

Chanting will activate the throat.

And it will allow us to speak powerful mantra.

Out there that will open up this throat.

That could be helpful.

That's a practical thing you can take away.

Also what I would get someone to do.

Here's another approach.

If I was coaching someone.

Privately or in a closed group or whatever.

I would create challenges for them.

I did this with one of my clients.

I created a rejection challenge with her.

I said you're going to go into a shop.

Or you're going to go and speak to your friends.

You're going to do this at work.

We are going to create scenarios.

Where you're going to say things that feel uncomfortable for you to say.

But it's your truth.

So we went through systematically.

I think we created like 10 of these rejection challenges.

Where we're trying to combat the feeling of rejection.

By approaching it consciously.

We're consciously owning it.

And what this did for her.

She became relentless with her voice afterwards.

She had massive transformation.

She started saying what she wanted from people in life.

Started making demands in a centered way.

She even made demands on me.

She's like Raj.

You know what?

I need more of this from my coaching sessions.

Can you help me with that?

Whereas she said to me.

I wouldn't have done that before.

I would be playing the good girl.

And being timid and quiet and pleasing and playing along.

But she was making demands.

She was in her power with her voice.

So creating challenges.

You can't just sit and do inner work only.

Of course inner work is kundalini work.

Allowing it to cleanse and purify.

However we have to.

With the voice specifically.

The voice is an instrument.

We have to play the instrument.

We have to play the instrument of our voices.

So these are some things you can do.

You can create challenges.

And it might be hard to do that on your own again.

And I'm not just saying this.

So you go and find a mentor.

Or you contact me and say.

Hey Raj.

You said that you need someone.

You need a guide to do this.

So I'm here.

I'm not trying to like brainwash you into that.

Like I know a lot of people would do.

I'm just explaining how it could be helpful.

Right?

I know it's been helpful.

When I've had someone egg me on.

And being there supportive.

Because then I'm doing it with someone.

I'm more likely to challenge myself.

Bigger challenges.

I'm going to report back to them and say.

Oh this is how it went.

And they're nurturing me.

Right?

They're helping me.

It's beautiful.

But you can still do this on your own.

You could just create a list of challenges you want to do.

I think I did this at one point.

I created an Excel worksheet.

Here's some challenges.

Things I would like to speak into the world.

I want to speak in front of a group.

Found that scary.

Did it.

I want to learn to dance.

Go to a dance class.

I want to sing.

I made a whole list of things.

That would feel very uncomfortable.

And started doing them.

Right?

So that's a way you can use your throat chakra.

I mentioned.

Inner kundalini body space creation.

Sorry.

Let me start that again.

Inner space creation through the body.

And then kundalini practices to bring throat.

Breath through your throat.

Working on the whole chakra system as well.

Because you can't be a throat chakra healer.

And say I want to touch your throat and you're healed.

It's a whole system.

Whole system has to be worked.

Right?

And then going and practicing things.

This is what creates confidence.

As you go and use your voice.

Be you is the formula.

Be you.

Be you.

Be you.

Don't try and be me.

I don't want anyone to be me.

You can learn from me.

Please do.

Take everything I've said today.

Learn from me.

Leverage me.

Use me.

I'm here to share and help.

I will guide you.

I will tell you what to do.

I will show you the system.

I will give you the map.

I will give you the challenges.

I will give you everything.

That's why I do it as a profession.

It's what I want,

Right?

But don't be me.

I don't want anyone to be like me.

You know?

I found it difficult to be myself.

I don't want you to be me.

Be you.

I want you to be in the world.

That's what the throat is about.

It's about us expressing our truth into the world.

Being you.

And then we have to release the out-breath out of the throat as well.

We have to release.

It's the air coming out.

It's a release.

The whole system works yin and yang.

Feel and then release.

Feel and release,

Feel and release.

In and out-breath.

That's all the spiritual science I've got for you guys today,

I think.

I've gone really deep into some very important topics.

This stuff,

If you really apply this,

If you've taken a note or you've had insights,

I promise you,

I promise you,

If you take this knowledge in,

You really understand how it works,

And then you go and apply it,

Your life will change.

I know it's a cliché,

But you will become,

Number one,

More free in your body to express yourself.

Like those Latinos I was talking about that I met in Colombia,

They're expressing themselves.

They feel good.

They're beaming with energy.

I was looking at them thinking,

Oh my God,

These people are like sunshine in flesh.

They're so buzzing with energy.

It's so nice to be around them.

There's not this cold,

Hey,

I'm stiff,

And I'm protective,

And I have my ego running things,

And I'm judging this.

It's so European and Westernized to do that.

We know it's not nice.

We don't enjoy it,

But we do it.

It's a God system.

Nothing wrong with it.

It's just how we're brought up.

Me too.

All of us are brought up this way.

Being in the body,

Feeling it.

It's so cool.

That's number one that I mentioned today.

Feeling in the body.

The second power center,

As I call it in my book,

Power centers,

Feeling the body,

And feeling the stomach,

The fire in your stomach.

Feel your fire.

Otherwise,

Your fire will mess you up.

It will turn into intellectual living.

Hey,

I'm intellectual.

I'm very smart.

I'm better than you.

I'm going to think of a great argument to say,

I'm going to try and outsmart you.

No,

No one likes that person.

We don't even like that part of ourselves.

It doesn't feel good.

Fire though,

Fiery confidence feels good.

We like to see other people that are like that,

Don't we?

We get impressed by ourselves.

So,

Sacral center,

The stomach center,

Which I just call core in my book,

And then the throat we went through today,

Using it like an instrument.

People mention my voice quite a lot,

And I even train people on speaking well.

So another thing that I'll do with people is help people to become powerful,

Free speakers.

Not performing monkeys on stage,

But free speakers.

Being free,

And that actually makes people brilliant on a stage if they want to be,

Right?

Or just with everyday life,

In a relationship,

With friends and family,

Sharing the truth,

Being you,

Right?

So we went through those three things today.

I talked about Kundalini.

I talked about my experience with it.

It doesn't have to be this mystical thing that you only read from yogis.

In India,

It's not this thing that you might see very popularized and westernized these days about,

Hey,

There's a Kundalini activation process that will,

You know,

It's well marketed now these days.

So be wary what you take in,

Please.

I'm not trying to judge anyone else or try to take you away from anyone else.

I want you to learn and see what's out there,

Right?

I want everyone to teach and share,

But just look at what you're teaching and what you're taking in when it comes to Kundalini because Kundalini is a very precious,

Sacred subject,

To me anyway.

It's passed down from lineages of Indian yogis to me.

How lucky I am to feel this now,

To be a voice of this.

And I want you guys to feel the authenticity that I've shared today and take these authentic points and try them.

Try them,

Right?

Try them.

Practice with your tools.

See what's in your way.

See what's stopping you.

See where Kundalini is getting turned into anger and resentment and overthinking.

That means it's not balanced well.

That's what it means.

There's not a balancing.

It's not free-flowing.

There's a blockage getting in the way of it.

That will be looked at.

It has to be looked at.

I've looked at all of my blocks,

All of them.

There's still some things that come up.

I'm still working on things,

You know?

I'm proud to be working on things because I'll notice there's another level to this now.

Ooh,

There's another level to how I can use my voice.

Ooh,

There's another level to how intimate I can be.

Ooh,

Okay.

Another level to how heartful I can be.

Wow,

Okay.

So these power centers,

They keep giving and giving and giving,

And I'm not as confused and stuck as I was before.

I can't even imagine being like that now because it was a nightmare,

To be honest.

So yeah,

I hope you guys got something from this.

I hope you feel more free,

Smiley,

Happy in your bodies.

We're going to end the session in a moment,

And I just want to say I acknowledge you for all listening.

An hour and 30 minutes is over.

So I hope you guys took everything from today.

I hope you took my energy,

Took my sharings.

I hope you will continue to take them.

I know this was a lot to put into one session.

If you'd like to go deeper into this and you want to look at all the seven centers,

There's two options that you have.

Number one is I'm going to host another session,

Which will be slightly based on my book.

I'm going to share a few more practices that can help.

Number two,

Though,

Which is probably what's going to be useful for most of you guys,

If there is a part of this system that you want to unleash,

Maybe you notice something from today,

Send me a question,

A specific question that you'd like help on.

Be specific.

Just say,

Hey Raj,

I came to your live.

I noticed when you were talking about this I noticed that I have these blocks.

What could you suggest?

I'd be happy to share things,

Right?

I'm not going to go into coaching you over a chat because I've done that before and it doesn't really serve the person.

But I will answer questions if you have specific questions,

Right?

So you could just send me a private message.

You can find me online.

You figure out a way,

Right?

If it's important to you,

I'll find a way to do that.

So I'll leave that invitation to you.

Please don't just send random things to me.

I hope you can honor that.

But if you do have a specific thing that you'd like from me,

Then ask me and I'd be happy to share,

Right?

If you want to go into this deeper,

Sometimes people will say,

How do I work with you?

Okay,

I can share.

I'm pretty full at the moment,

To be honest,

But I might open up some slots to work with people,

Right?

Again,

Depending on what they want to work on,

Depending on if I can help,

I may even refer you somewhere else.

I might just give you a book.

I might refer you to a friend of mine.

Whatever,

I think I can help,

Right?

So I want to leave that as a next potential step that you could take if you want to go deeper.

Otherwise,

There's loads of books and learning out there.

There's other practitioners sharing about these things.

Connect the dots to what I said where someone else maybe says something that's helpful.

Maybe you journal on this.

Maybe you meditate on this.

Maybe you do these practices.

Maybe today sparks something completely new and your whole spiritual path is on a whole different world.

That's what I hope so.

I hope that you've been awakened into possibilities,

Into simplicity as well.

There's a lot of stuff out there,

Right?

I really hope that my teachings are enough to be actionable and practical,

Right?

I hope so.

And I really hope,

Finally,

That you take action on this.

Because life can be great.

I'm sitting here in Bali right now and I wanted to do this a while back and I'm doing things that I enjoy and my energy is feeling good because my kundalini is alive,

Right?

My kundalini is moving through me.

I'm functioning off this.

I don't need to function off much other than this,

Right?

So if you can learn how to use your kundalini and unleash it and live by this,

Live through this,

Oh my God,

Life is unlimited,

Purified and clear and exciting.

Potent stuff.

So let's leave it as that.

I don't usually like to go over time but today we are a little bit over.

Enjoy your evening,

Guys.

If you felt some energy today,

Maybe you take that opportunity to slow down and ground it,

Whatever.

Be with yourself.

Be with your insights.

Be with life-changing things that you think are possible.

Nurture that.

Don't forget about that.

Don't forget the one thing that you heard today and go and do something about that and then watch how your life will change.

Alright.

See you later,

Guys.

Sending you lots of love,

Lots of kundalini,

Lots of possibilities.

Don't let your ego get in the way.

This is what a guru of mine said to me.

He said,

Don't let your ego show.

Don't let your ego get in the way of anything.

If you are,

You messed up,

Man.

That's what he said to me.

Stop,

Man.

Don't let your ego get in the way.

Alright,

Guys.

See you later.
