People who know me in person find it hard to believe I'm pure pitta though it might be more obvious now that I'm in Mars mahadasa! IMO, the advantage for kaphas on spiritual path is that they tend to be more grounded, less in their head. But there can be a lot of tamas guna present, inertia. The advantage for vatas is there can be a lot of sattva, but then they're so much in the head and can be scattered. Pittas can have some wonderful combo of weaknesses and strengths (-:
Actually if I remember my ayurveda classes, it's best if apana vayu moves down. I've written before about Patangali Kundalini Yoga Care in Knoxville, TN, a Saraswati lineage devoted to helping people with stuck kundalinis which is what I had prior to doing their retreat in July 2009. According to their teaching my kundalini was in vajra nadi which actually goes all the way up to crown. But is very unstable and wrecks havoc on the physiology and chakras. Once it was redirected to sushumna, Kundalini Shakti went to upper brow ajna and remains there, making Her way slowly but surely and smoothly to crown chakra. That's what they teach and my experience bears out its validity. ________________________________ From: card <cardemais...@yahoo.com> To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, November 3, 2012 6:36 AM Subject: [FairfieldLife] Re: to those who use a handle on FFL to noozguru --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Share Long <sharelong60@...> wrote: > > > Triguna told me I'm pure pitta Just occurred to me, could it that for pitta-s it's easier to awaken kuNDalinii, than for vaata-s and kapha-s? From YKU: 44-45(a). Then Agni and Apana come to (or commingle with) Prana in the heated state. Through this Agni which is very fiery, there arises in the body the flaming (or the fire) which rouses the sleeping Kundalini through its heat. (Translated by K. Narayanasvami Aiyar)
