![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Yogi Bhajan learned to play the gong on the types of Indian gongs used in temples and celebrations there. When he began teaching in the United States in 1969, he discovered that his students, many musically inclined hippies, were deeply attracted to the sound of the gong. Yet little attention has been given to the style of gong playing that he brought to the world.īorn in 1929 in northern India, he studied Kundalini Yoga, Tantric Yoga, and Gong meditation with his teacher Sant Harzan Singh in the early 1940s until he was acclaimed by his teacher as the master of Kundalini Yoga. Today, the majority of gong players who use the gong for sound healing and meditation are also practitioners of Kundalini Yoga and the teachings of Yogi Bhajan. Beginning in the early 1970s, his students (of which I was one) used the gong, in their ashrams around the world, to help people recover from the damages of drug use. As a practical demonstration of the power of the spoken word, read his words on Love, Happiness, God, Mind and Relationships - your view of the Universe will be changed forever.It is not an overstatement to say that Yogi Bhajan, the master of Kundalini Yoga, was the most influential individual in spreading the use of the Gong, from India to the Western world, as an instrument for meditation and healing. The Teachings of Yogi Bhajan are presented in short lessons, ranging from one sentence to several paragraphs - an essential book for anyone looking to understand more about who and what they are, the nature of reality, and the nature of devotion. You are either a committed student, or you are not. There is no room for excuses, cop outs or crutches in Yogi Bhajan's world. Indeed, reading this book is like sitting down with a stern but loving teacher, as you may find that many of these sayings force you to confront behaviors that you know you engage in but shouldn't. There is much wisdom here from the master of Kundalini Yoga, and his words literally cut through you in many cases. Besides pointing to our inner hidden wisdom, Yogi Bhajan also offers very practical philosophical guidelines, along with some very specific and effective techniques for meditation. Through it relationships are made and broken, knowledge is transmitted, and consciousness is changed. Its inner secret is the power of the spoken word - the most wonderful gift given to human beings.
