Ascension Yoga

As Taught within Chapter 9 of the Book


What is Ascension?

As we ascend, we are climbing the metaphorical staircase towards wholeness. The return is an illusion of course, since the original departure was like a dream.

What is Ascension Yoga?

Ascension Yoga is meant to be an adjunct to an existing yoga practice. It is a method of approaching any type of yoga so that it serves your personal, and thereby planetary, ascension.

This integrated energy then ascends as the power to manifest the divine aspects of each chakra.

The transformation process is effortless and is carried by the pure being of the person, not by conscious intent. And it is not all or nothing. Traumatic Kundalini awakening experiences are not the aim of Ascension Yoga. We do not start with the seat of the Kundalini, but rather let the awakened consciousness reach it, releasing a gentle stream from the great river, as universal love is integrated within the full chakra system.

The spontaneous benefits which intensify as Kundalini gradually unfolds within the integrated chakra system are....
