Kundalini Yoga: Breath of Fire Guide

The breath of fire technique used in Kundalini yoga has the primary purposes of purifying the psychic energies in the chakras, awakening and raising the dormant Kundalini energy, and opening and cleansing the central energy channel (sushumana). It generates purifying fire that circulates through the chakras and nadis. When performed with focus on specific points like the nose or third eye while applying other techniques like mula bandha, it can effectively move energy up the sushumana channel to activate it. This purification and energy activation process is core to awakening Kundalini power and the basis of the Kundalini yoga practice.

The Purpose Of The Breath Of Fire

The reason the breath of fire is important to Kundalini


yoga is not mentioned in most texts on the subject.

In the Tantra's its stated the samskaras are offered to


the fire of the Manipura chakra. What this means is the
activation of the navel chakra purifies the samskaras
which are the karmic imprints in the chakras and mind
that have to be purified as part of the process . The other
thing this chakra rules is the development and
transformation of the mind in general and this includes
the psychic powers. The purification and transformation
of the psyche and the energy centers this method
accomplishes is important to the Kundalini process.
That is why the name of this method in Sanskrit means
purification of the mind.

In some of the commentaries its stated the truth that the


breath of fire main purpose is to awaken and raise the
Kundalini. The breath of fire works to generate purifying
fire and circulate it though the chakras and nadis to
allow this process to happen properly. The retention
however was removed from this process as this is where
the power is within. The entire energy system connects
at the navel chakra.
The instructions for the Kriya for the practices with the
navel is to focus on the tip of the nose as this is the gate
way to the sushumana, however while this works to
some degree the sushumana activation point is further
back from the tip of the nose under the middle part of
the nose between the opening of the two nostrils of the
nose. Many Egyptian images show the Ankh pointing to
this area as well.

To make the breath of fire powerfully done the mula


banda must be done along with the tongue placed on the
roof of the mouth with the tip of the tongue behind the
two front teeth. The focus should be placed on the
sushumana activation point on the nose. Another
method is also to focus on the third eye with this. But the
focus on the sushumana activation point also activates
such. These methods along with the navel lock should
also be used on the retention.

This will move the energy through the sushumana and


through the entire soul while working to open and purify
the sushumana channel and chakras which is the main
focus of Kundalini yoga. This method awakens the
Kundalini power as many have also found out from using
and the texts state. Hence why this method is the basis
of Kundalini yoga. This is why the symbolism of this
method is all over the alchemical images. This was also
kept secret in the east and is in very few books on the
subject and with no real explanation as to what this
does. It was not until Yogi Bhajan made this popular
anyone even knew about such in all reality.
