Tummo (“intense heat within”) [yoga]) is an advanced tantric practice, often taught in conjunction with subtle body movement exercises. Tsarun Torkor (“Conveying the movement of wind and magic”). Tsa Life energy (Lun (Tibetan) “Wind”) and Vital Essence (Seagle) Circulates and connects the body and mind. A combination of visualization, breathing, and subtle body practices make up Thunmo’s yoga practice.
Generating heat through Thummo Yoga is aimed at “combustion” or digestion cresic Energy associated with our conditioned or maladaptive emotional schemas and habitual thought patterns. To cultivate embodied wisdom through Tantric practice, one relies on these methods of direct experience to transform the body, energy (speech), and mind.
“These disciplines aim to transform the body, life force, and spirit, making one “alive” and, in a sense, connected to compassion as an embodied state.“
The main purpose of Thummo is to increase the inner heat or yogic heat and bring about an experience of awakening and bliss. This physical or physical pleasure is used to cultivate consciousness and more clearly embodied wisdom. The heat of yoga transforms the body’s seagull into a somatic base of bliss, compassion, and positive emotional states, effectively bringing joy along the way.
Thunmo can be a source of healing for many more people than just avid Vajrayana Buddhist practitioners. You don’t need to be highly skilled to benefit from this practice. Although it may be difficult to reach advanced stages of oncology practice, positive and substantial results are within reach.
Growing tumors through vase breathing
“Vase” breathing. Its name comes from the Indian yogic breath-holding method. Kumbaka (Sanskrit) is the basic breathing technique for cultivating thummo. By inhaling and drawing the vital air below the navel, subtle energies are drawn and stored within the central channel of the body.
The entire network of channels underlying the structure of the body (described in Tibetan medical and tantric texts) is strengthened through a combination of movements, massages, blows, and gestures, as well as variations in vase breathing and visualization. , become flexible and adaptable. . It usually begins with a variation of alternate nostril breathing known as the Ninefold Purification of Breathing. In this method, the body is visualized as crystalline, transparent, and made up of subtle channels (tsa) through which life energy flows.
Of all channels, three are primary. The central channel and the two lateral channels are visualized as having solar and lunar properties. The right channel is often visualized on the right side (red in color) and reflects warmth and metabolic properties. The left side is visualized as a white channel associated with nourishment and even pleasure. The central channel is often visualized in shades of crystal blue, associated with altered mental states and emotions. Side channels are associated with the movement of dualistic concepts and also store our embodied painful emotions and elemental energies. Alternate nostril breathing aims to clear stagnant emotional energy, bodily fluids, and mental toxins by visualizing the faint smoke that comes out as you exhale from nostril to nostril.
Channel-clearing breathing with vase breathing supports meditation, helping you balance your emotions and settle into meditation more easily. Practicing yoga breathing techniques regularly can reduce the burden of stress and help you regulate and digest your emotional experiences.
One of the instructions for Vase Breathing is to stabilize and energize the subtle winds through visualization and internal breath retention. This type of breath retention cleanses the wind in the side channels and channels it into the central channel, causing the “wind of wisdom.”Yes, Run), or a complete expression of these subtle energies. Experienced practitioners utilize this ability to enhance lucid meditative states.
When wind flows through side channels, it is said to create a conditioned or dualistic experience. When they gather in the central channel, this serves as the basis for non-conceptual wisdom. As meditators, we can train ourselves to become attuned to the subtle winds that induce meditative states, rather than simply observing our breath or using it as an object of concentration.
Tumor and visualization
Research on tantric visualization practices suggests that Vajrayana meditation may include an element of activation and arousal (cortical excitability), which may contribute to an increase in core body temperature. doing. But it also has neurocognitive effects, such as increased alertness. The purpose of visualization in Thummo Yoga is to help develop a more resilient mind and energy that can accommodate different states of manifestation, including states of joy, ecstasy, and bliss.
The benefits of Tummo, Tibetan yoga movements and breathing techniques go beyond mindfulness and interoception. Traditionally, these disciplines aim to transform the body, life energy, and spirit through the refinement of wind.bindu) and Vital Essence (Seague). They make one feel “alive” and, in a sense, are connected to compassion as an embodied state. When subtle winds are brought into the central channel, qualities of mind such as unhindered clarity and brightness are revealed. Many long-term Vajrayana practitioners find that their practice becomes revitalized and more complete when they incorporate these subtle body methods into their long-standing creative visualization practices. These methods bring insight into emptiness and bodhicitta in one’s body.
As you begin to generate yogic heat through visualization and breath-holding, a process of purification and transformation occurs. Through practice, we can better cope with difficult, often painful, or challenging experiences. Increased heat and circulation can undo physical, energetic, and subtle “Vajrayal” blocks. The practice of Tsarung Tulkhor first involves actions that repair blockages and damage related to the structure of the channel. Chakra. Through this process, the muscles, connective tissues, elements, and fluids within the body are balanced. The five major winds and five tributary winds, each spoken of in tantric and medical literature, are also balanced and calibrated, providing emotional balance and cognitive clarity and stability. As the winds and vital essences are purified, they are also drawn into the central channel and a progressive meditative experience occurs.
The cleansing that characterizes these somatic and meditative processes can cause discomfort and painful experiences, but can potentially open up avenues of experience. As Tammo’s fire penetrates, chakra (vital center) of the central channel. This can restore our creativity, lost vitality, social engagement, intimacy, and even love.
Tummo practice incorporates visualization, movement, and expression as ways to deepen the embodiment of wisdom and compassion. Many Vajrayana practitioners find that incorporating these subtle body methods into their long-standing creative stage visualization practice has revitalized and made their practice more complete. These methods bring insight into emptiness and bodhicitta into our bodies.
