Sadhguru reveals the origins behind the Shakti Chalana Kriya, a unique Yogic practice taught in the Shoonya Intensive Program, an advanced program offered at Isha.Building on the universal foundations of Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, this Kriya is meticulously crafted by Sadhguru for incremental spiritual growth and inner transformation. Emphasizing devotion, he explains how this custom-designed Kriya evolves individually, guiding practitioners to new dimensions of energy and consciousness.
萨古鲁揭示了Shakti Chalana Kriya的由来,这是一种在Isha提供的Shoonya Intensive高级课程中教授的独特瑜伽练习。这个kriya(克里亚)建立在帕坦伽利《瑜伽经》的普遍原则上,由萨古鲁精心设计,旨在促进灵性的渐进成长和内在转化。他强调奉献,并解释了这种专门设计的kriya(克里亚)如何根据个人情况逐步演进,引导修行者进入全新的能量与意识层面。
Who Designed the Shakti Chalana Kriya?
谁设计了Shakti Chalana Kriya?
Question: Namaskaram, Sadhguru. The Shakti Chalana Kriya that is taught to us is such an intricate process. I was wondering where you learned it from. Is it from Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras?
问题:您好,萨古鲁!我们所学的Shakti Chalana Kriya是一个如此复杂精细的过程,我好奇您从哪里学到的,是出自帕坦伽利的《瑜伽经》吗?
Sadhguru: The Shakti Chalana Kriya practiced here is a unique construction. There may be similar practices elsewhere, but no one does the kriyas exactly as we do in Isha. This is because the Yogic system only provides the fundamentals; it does not specify how to do the practice.
Sadhguru(萨古鲁):在这里练习的Shakti Chalana Kriya是一种独特的构造,或许其他地方也有类似的练习,但没有人做和Isha所做的一模一样的kriya(克里亚)。这是因为瑜伽系统只提供基础原理,它并不具体说明如何练习。
The Yoga Sutras only describe what does what within the system. Based on that, and depending on what you intend to create in the system, you design a specific kriya. Nada kriya, mudra kriya, and mahatkriya may be practiced in a few other places, but the remaining parts are not practiced anywhere else. There may be people who are aware of the fundamentals in which it is rooted, but the practice itself is a unique construction.
《瑜伽经》只描述什么在系统内起怎样的作用。基于此,根据你想在系统中创造什么,你设计一个特定的克里亚。Nada(声音)克里亚、Mudra(手印)克里亚和mahat克里亚或许在其他地方也有教授,但其余部分在其他任何地方都是没有的,也许有人知道它所根植的基础,但这个练习本身是一个独特的构造。
No one does the kriyas exactly as we do in Isha.
没有人做和Isha所做的一模一样的kriya(克里亚)。
Just like engineering books provide the fundamentals of construction without specific details to build a particular structure, the practice we have built is not absolutely new because the fundamentals of engineering are the same. Similarly, the fundamentals of Inner Engineering are based on how the body is constructed. This is not something we invent – this is something we become aware of and discover. Designing the structure of the kriya is left to each master.
就像工程书籍提供了建筑的基本原理,但没有建造某一特定结构的具体细节,我们的练习并非全是新的,因为构建的基本原理是相同的。同样,内在工程课程的原理是基于身体是如何构建的,这不是我们发明的东西——这是我们觉知到并发现的东西。而克里亚结构的设计,则交由每位大师自己来定。
The Open-Ended Nature of Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras
帕坦伽利《瑜伽经》的开放特性
Most Yoga practiced in the world today is learned from others rather than realized from within. This cannot truly be considered Yoga because the Yoga Sutras were written in such a way that there is no teaching in them. At the same time, they contain everything that anyone can ever learn about life.
今天世界上大多数的瑜伽都是从他人那里学来的,而不是从内在领悟到的。这不能被称作是真正的瑜伽,因为《瑜伽经》的编写,它们里面是没有教导的。同时,它们包含了任何人可以学到的关于生命的一切。
The Yoga Sutras were written in such a way that there is no teaching in them. At the same time, they contain everything that anyone can ever learn about life.
《瑜伽经》的编写,它们里面是没有教导的。同时,它们包含了任何人可以学到的关于生命的一切。
It is like the building blocks are there, but everyone has to construct the building themselves. That is why they are known as sutras, which means threads. You can use various flowers, pearls, beads, or diamonds to make a garland, but without a thread, there is no garland. Still, you never wear a garland for its thread but for what it holds. The thread is the key, but without adding something to it, it is of no consequence.
这就像是积木有了,但每个人都必须自己建造房子。这就是为什么它们被称为sutras(经),意味着线。你可以用各种花、珍珠、珠子或钻石来制作花环,但是没有线,就没有花环。尽管如此,你从不因为线而戴花环,而是它所承载的东西。线是关键,但如果不添加其他东西,它就无关紧要。
People are trying to wear the thread alone without realizing that the thread has no significance unless it is made into a garland. Due to experiential ignorance and the intellectual pursuit of spiritual sciences, this kind of foolishness is happening in the world.
人们试图只戴这线,没有意识到线本身没有意义,除非它被做成花环。由于体验上的无知和对灵性科学的智性追求,这种愚蠢现象正在世界各地发生。
How the Kriya Progressively Supports Your Growth
此克里亚如何逐步地支持你的成长
Question: Sadhguru, in addition to my kriyas, which I do every day without fail, what else should I do to experience life to the maximum?
问题:萨古鲁,除了我每天必做的克里亚练习之外,我还应该做些什么来最大限度地体验生命?
Sadhguru: You must live! What does it mean to live? Not live it out, but live it in. People think that to live, they need to live it out by partying every day. The “party every day” philosophy only works for some time. I have nothing against parties, but it is not very practical. And partying every day will become the most monotonous horror after some time. So, what should you do? The Kriya is only an impetus, not an end in itself.
Sadhguru(萨古鲁):你必须去活!去活意味着什么?不是向外活,而是向内活!人们认为要活,他们就得每天用派对去活出来。“每天派对”的理念只能有用一阵子,我对派对没有意见,但这不太实际。而且,每天派对在一段时间后会成为最单调的恐怖。那么,你应该做什么?克里亚只是一种推动力,而非最终目的。
The Kriya aims to enhance your energies and can function in different dimensions. In the program, we teach it in such a way that it is safe for beginners. If you were to guide someone to climb a tree, you would let a five-year-old kid climb only so far, but a ten-year-old kid a little higher. The Kriya is taught in such a way that when you exhaust one dimension, which will take a certain period of time, a new dimension will open up. Some people exhaust the possibility that it offers in a particular dimension quickly; for others, it takes a lifetime.
克里亚旨在增强你的能量,并能在不同的维度中发挥作用。在课程中,我们会以一种对初学者安全的方式教授它。如果你要指导某人爬树,你会让一个五岁的孩子爬这么高,而让一个十岁的孩子爬更高一点。克里亚被传授的方式使得:当你耗尽一个维度时(这需要一段时间),一个新的维度将会打开。有些人很快就耗尽它在特定维度提供的可能性;对其他人来说,可能需要一生的时间。
The Kriya aims to enhance your energies and can function in different dimensions.
克里亚旨在增强你的能量,并能在不同的维度中发挥作用。
There is also an inbuilt mechanism that, if you hit the full depth and dimension of the Kriya within a certain period of time and stay there steadily, will open up a new possibility. The “software” is designed in such a way that it will hold you in a certain place for a certain time, and when it senses your physiology and psychology are stable enough, it will move you to the next level of intensity.
还有一种内在机制,如果你在一定时间内达到克里亚的全部深度和维度,并在那里稳定地保持,这将会开启新的可能性。这个“软件”的设计是:它会将你保持在某个程度一段时间,当它感知到你的生理和心理足够稳定时,它会将你带到下一个强度水平。
If you are not willing to wait for this process to unfold by itself naturally, then you can choose to fix a certain period of time for full-time sadhana. You could come and stay at the Isha Yoga Center for a week or fifteen days of sadhana, maybe twice a year – whatever suits and fits into your life. A few days in a year should be only for sadhana, not for anything else – 24 hours of sadhana for a short span of time. If you invest this time, the unfolding can happen much faster, rather than allowing it to mature at its own natural pace.
如果你不愿意等待这个过程的自然展开,那么你可以选择一段时间来专门进行瑜伽练习。你可以来Isha瑜伽中心做一周或十五天的练习,可能一年两次——或你的生活能妥善安排的任何频次。一年中应该有那么几天只用于瑜伽练习,而不做其他任何事——短时间内24小时的瑜伽练习。如果你投入这个时间,展开的过程会发生得快得多,而不是让它以自己的自然节奏成熟。
The Power of Devotion in Kriya Practice
克里亚练习中奉爱的力量
Being in a state of devotion is very conducive. You can also sit every day and practice it like an exercise. Do not make vows like, “Till the last day of my life, I will do it.” Just commit to doing ittoday. See this day as if it could be your last. We are not wishing for it, but it is possible that this could be your last day.
处于奉爱的状态是非常有益的。你也可以每天坐下来,像做运动一样练习。不要发誓说,“直到我生命的最后一天,我都会做。” 只是承诺今天去做!把今天看作是你生命的最后一天。我们并不希望如此,但有可能这真的是你的最后一天。
The most important thing is to do the Kriya with a certain sense of devotion and offering, rather than like an exercise.
最重要的是以某种奉爱感和奉献感去练习克里亚,而不是像做运动一样。
If you do your Kriya like this could be your last day, you will unfold much faster. If you think you will do it for the next 82 years, the inner mechanism will think you have a lot of time. But if you practice it like today is the last day, then it will hurry up a little. And if we find that you are stable and suitable enough, we will step in and tweak it in a completely different way.
如果你以这可能是你的最后一天的方式来练习你的克里亚,你将会更快展开。如果你认为你会在未来82年里练习,内在的机制会认为你还有很多时间。但如果你像今天是最后一天那样练习,那么它就会加快一点。如果我们发现你足够稳定和合适,我们将会介入并以完全不同的方式调整它。
There are many things to do, but the most important thing is to do the Kriya with a certain sense of devotion and offering, rather than like an exercise. If you do it like an exercise, you will get health benefits. But if you want to “explode,” you must dissolve your inner structures – then it will burst forth very easily.
