Yogi Bhajan was our teacher. He was a Master of Kundalini yoga and he spent much of his time dedicated to uplifting, supporting and educating women. He taught us that our greatness and strength was ours for the taking, we just needed tools to remember this truth. Kundalini yoga is a way in, a way into your own being to begin the work from the inside out. It is a way to heal, confront, reflect, reconsider and respect yourself so deeply that love and radiance flows forth.
Dive into some of these powerful teachings with Gurmukh and Wah. This first video is an introduction to the course and how you can use it to best serve your life.
There are ways to make this course deeply personal. There are ways to use it so it is transformational. You can decide with some of our suggestions how to maximize your time and energy.
Remember these words of Yogi Bhajan as you begin this journey though Radiant Power of Women.
"You are the nucleus of this Universe. You are the source of beginning. You are the master of the space. You are the hub, you are the pivot, you are the force, you are the mother. If you walk tall, that’s all you have to do. Resurrect yourself, exalt yourself, excel. You are born to rule, that’s the rule of the creation.”
— YOGI BHAJAN
In this first lecture Wah and Gurmukh talk about the first pillar, Strength. Learn how we can understand Strength in totality to be able to fully embody it in service of our lives.
When the time is on you, start; and the pressure will be off.
There’s a way through every block.
~ Yogi Bhajan

Commitment
Physical strength
Inner strength

In this second lecture Wah and Gurmukh talk about pillar number two, Compassion. Learn how we can utilize compassion more when we understand that it is one of our gifts as women.
"Understand through compassion; otherwise you will misunderstand the times." ~ Yogi Bhajan

Some different ways compassion can show up in our lives:
Self-love and forgiveness
Ability to tell the truth
Being kind to yourself… no matter what
In this third lecture Wah and Gurmukh talk about pillar number three, Abundance. Throughout most the world, the word abundance or abundant has lost its depth and has be summed down to a monetary term. In this talk we discuss the power of the word abundance and how as humans and yogis we have the right to live abundant lives. We just need to redefine abundance and understand its full meaning.
"Success, happiness, and constant prosperity are the result of mastering the mind." - Yogi Bhajan

A vital connection to source and creation
Trusting that you have what you need in every moment
Intuition to consciously choose your path
In this forth lecture Wah and Gurmukh talk about pillar the forth pillar, Holiness. What does it mean to live as a whole woman? Are we connected to all the aspects of self, living in alignment with the needs of the body and of the spirit.
Vibrate the Cosmos, and the Cosmos shall clear the path. ~ Yogi Bhajan
Some different ways Holiness can show up in our lives to enhance and enrich our human experience:
Success
Victory
Purpose
Good Health
Wah wraps up Radiant Power of Women lecture portion with a recap and thoughts on how to integrate this wisdom into your daily life.
Take a few minutes with Wah to understand what this kriya is good for before you begin.
The name of this kriya is Body Adjustment To Elevate The Spirit. It was originally taught in July 1984 by Yogi Bhajan. It is a hearty kriya that will work your body. In Radiant Power of Women your kriya is taught by Wah.
Do the best you can and watch your strength grow over time as you continue to practice it. There are modifications offered if needed. The goal with Kundalini yoga is to just show up and do the best you can!
Notes from the kriya Body Adjustment To Elevate The Spirit:
Disease comes from structural change. This is the oriental, ancient way of looking at it. This body and its bones have no screws nor bolts. The body is held together by tissue and by muscle. During one’s life, many movements occur in the body simultaneously influencing the action of the muscles.
Certain muscles are stronger and hold the skeleton in a different way than the other muscles. This can lead to physical problems. Life becomes imbalanced and irritation sets in. The whole body structure is responsible for one's elevation, for one’s “being-ness.”
A car has a transmission, it uses gas and it starts. If one part is missing, or if just a little air does not get to the gas, it dies. It is the same with the body!
This kriya or set will keep you out of trouble. This is how you can elevate your spirit by adjusting your body.
In this video you will start right in with the kriya. Be ready to begin!

The name of this kriya is Breath of Fire with Lion’s Paws Resetting the Brain’s Electromagnetic Field. Wah will give an introduction and tune you in. Then the video will change to Gurmukh where she will lead you through the kriya. This kriya was filmed live in a studio so you can feel the energy of a room full of yogis and students.
Notes from the kriya Breath of Fire with Lion’s Paws Resetting the Brain’s Electromagnetic Field:
This short one-exercise kriya has a powerful and immediate effect on the brain and electromagnetic field. The pressure in the hand position triggers reflexes in the fingertips to each area of the brain. The movement of the arms moves the nodes and glands in the lymphatic system. It also pressurizes the nervous system to change its current state. With Breath of Fire added to the motion, this enhances functioning of the pituitary and stimulates the pineal gland to increase the radiance and subtle frequency of the brain’s projection.
This video is an introduction to the Meditation for Victory. In it, Wah will help you to understand the meaning and purpose of the meditation and how to practice it. This meditation is lead by Wah.
"Just understand one word. Take it from me, I am not giving you any Sanskrit word or a religious word or anything. I am just telling you something which will help you survive through all odds.
Whenever you face anything and you don’t have an answer, just call yourself inside and say, 'Victory.' Lean on ‘Victory.’
Make it a guide word, make it a precious word. I don’t know what you are, who you are, or why you are. Don’t ask questions. Don’t do your analysis. Don’t try to solve problems. Just utter the word Victory. With just the mental utterance of this word your whole life will change. Mentally utter the word Victory - try it! You’ll find the strength of a hundred angels behind you." - Yogi Bhajan
In this video you will dive right into the Meditation for Victory. Enjoy the 11 minute meditation with Wah.
