Surya Kriya: Channel the Energy of the Sun
For my Teacher Training practicum class I taught Surya kriya to the group. It is a lovely set that focuses on brining in Sun energy, hence the name Surya.
In order to improve my teaching ability for the class I started doing a 40 day practice of Surya Kriya, which actually just ended. Sun energy allows one to focus on many tasks at the same time, which I really need to excel at considering the creative endeavors which manifest through my mind.
One thing I really enjoyed about the 40 day practice was I felt I’ve begun to deepen my experience while performing Sat Kriya, which is a cornerstone Kundalini Yoga practice.
To add some flashing lights to the practice, one morning in meditation following the kriya, I had a vision of the Sun rising and shining brightly upon me. Needless to say these communal experiences encourages one to continue with regular practice.
I’m going to take a short break from a 40 day and mix it up a little for a bit. Sometimes I enjoy waking in the morning and simply doing the kriya that is called for on that particular day. But now that I’ve deepened my yoga practice, I intend to perform a regular regimine of 40 day kriyas and meditations. Stay tuned for those…

Krishan Singh began his yoga practice back in 2004. In 2007 Hershel received his Spiritual Name, Krishan Singh, which means one who performs his duties in devotional service as praise of God. He soon realized he required deeper training and instruction in Kundalini Yoga. So he began Kundalini Yoga Teacher training, as taught by Yogi Bhajan at Spirit Rising Yoga in Chicago from Shiva Singh and Shabad Kaur. In 2008 Krishan recieved a level 1 KRI Teacher Certification.
Krishan states, “I am fortunate to have come to Yoga and to be surrounded with such brilliant lights upon the planet. As I continue my studies in Yoga and in the Charkras, those seven centers of energy I will share my experiences so that others may gain the benefits that Kundalini Yoga and this education has provided me.”
