Swami Pranabananda Pranahamsa
Kriya yoga practice bestows rulership over the senses. Pain is also apart of the senses. In order to transcend pain or to not feel it, the sadhaka should hold padmasana for extended periods while also performing kumbhaka. #kundalini
Breath retention while in padmasana neutralizes the senses and the mind. Once this is done, pain and other sensory activities are no longer felt.

There is a difference between masculine and feminine interpretation of Nava Durgas. The masculine interpretation demonstrates the process of creation from nothingness to ego. The female interpretation follows the path of a woman’s life.
Separately, each shows a reverence for the path of creation and development of life. As a result of these interpretations, the Nava Durgas should be listed in the correct order to signify the individual phases of each interpretation. #Spirituality #SanatanaDharma
