In point number II, breathing should be done with alternate nostrils. In other words, if you inhale through left nostril, right nostril should be closed, etc. But in point number III, breathing should be done with both nostrils open. No nostril should be closed.

Hello, please explain what point 3 ,, lll '' means, which says that the process must be repeated for 2 open nostrils. But in point 2 ,, ll '' both nostrils are already involved, what exactly does point 3 ,, lll '' require? Nāḍi Śodhana Prāṇāyāma referred to in point 2 ,, ll '' already involved 2 - in the nostrils what then to do in paragraph 3 ? Тhanks for the answer.

Pranayama that we practice during mantra japa is different. It is mild and for a shorter duration. In the case of Kundalini, breathing is accompanied by bandhas and mudras. When you do mantra japa regularly along with pranayama, Kundalini may ascend on its own. But, we should not forcefully raise such vibrations and allow it to take its own course.

Thank you Ravi Sir. But even during Mantra sadhana we do pranayama, align our breadth with the mantra and meditate. Will this not activate Kundalini?

Mantra sadhana and Kundalini meditation are two different paths to Liberation. Kundalini is related to meditation and breath control, whereas mantra sadhana is full practicing mantra japa and propitiating the concerned deity> Mantra sadhana is always better than the path of Kundalini, which is riskier.

Hello Ravi Sir, If liberation is possible through Kundalini meditation and regulating our breath why do we need Mantra Japa? For a beginner who is initiated into Sri Vidya what will be the best course of action? Please explain Sir. Eagerly awaiting your reply. Many Thanks Appy

You may request for an initiation from any of the gurus mentioned in this page. To answer your questions - 1. We follow the Dakṣiṇācāra tradition that is popular in South India. 2. We initiate into Mantras and encourage you to study the tantras and the various published works. Our teachings are on this site as articles that you may read. We don't conduct any classes, per se.

The necessary corrections have been made. Thank you for pointing out the errors. The stotram you are looking for is on Sanskritdocuments.org at https://sanskritdocuments.org/doc_shiva/parashambhUmahimnastavadUrvAsa.pdf. It is in Sanskrit and I don't know if there are any translations of this stotram anywhere. Maybe sometime in the future, we can take up the translation, if there's enough interest.
