Love and Fear
by Yogi Bhajan
We are very simple human beings born in the image of God with definite destiny. Because you must see in the heavens that everything has an orbit. No conversion, no movement in the universe, space, or here is possible without first confirming the psycho-magnetic orbit of it...

Man Jeetai Jagjeet - Conquer Your Mind & Conquer the World
This past week I have been thinking a lot about my recent blog posts which are on the topic of judgment and the mind.

Message from the New 3HO Chief Executive Officer
Sat Nam,
You may notice that I have a new job title. I was recently appointed to the position of 3HO Chief Executive Officer. This has been a humbling, elevating and deeply transformational experience for me. Having someone like myself, a relative newcomer, serving 3HO in this capacity is a new step for the organization to take. Because of this, I am inspired to share with you a quick story of the journey that led me to be where I am today, because I believe it may not be so different than yours.
I took my first Kundalini Yoga class in 1992 with Gurmukh in Los Angeles. Something profound happened in that first class, and I continued showing up for yoga classes for the next 10 years.
In 2002, I attended my first Summer Solstice Sadhana, Women’s Camp and the teacher training intensive course, Self Mastery. I was so inspired by being a Kundalini Yoga teacher that only one week after completing the training, I decided to leave Los Angeles for my hometown of Bloomington, IN in order to be part of a team of teachers opening the first Kundalini Yoga center there – go
Midland Yoga Center!
After two years spent in Bloomington helping to create a Kundalini Yoga center which also became an ashram, Española was calling me home and so I came. I have been working at 3HO since I arrived in February 2005.
I am just 11 days older than 3HO, and I am very grateful to be serving our dharma and humbled in my position of service. Being on this path and a member of our global family is a blessing. Together we are sharing the teachings of Yogi Bhajan for today, tomorrow, and future generations. We are his legacy and we are here for each other.
Please feel free to connect with me any time at BhajanKaur@3HO.org. I would be grateful to hear from you.
Blessings,
Bhajan Kaur

What else do you want? Therefore, there is no crisis which you cannot cross.

Healing the Body, Mind and Soul
The Base of Sexual Relationship
Yogi Bhajan teaches, "Sex is everything. Sex is nothing." When a couple wants to have a good sexual relationship, a good day-to-day relationship with effective, clear communication is essential. The heart-to-heart basics cannot be missing. Sex cannot solve problems or create trust or replace open communication. Sex does not just happen in bed. It starts in the day-to-day life: how we are, how we speak, how we hear, and how we live for each other. Sex is the greatest treat which we can share.
A woman has to trust and feel that the relationship is secure in order to thoroughly relax. In her subconscious are the questions: "Will this man stay with me? Will he support the family if I get pregnant?" She needs even more trust if she already has a child and has experienced pregnancy and birth. A woman must be sure that this man is there for her and her family.
She also tests him to find out if he will be able to maintain the male one-pointedness when she swings into her fluctuating female moon-energy.
Kundalini Yoga, a yoga discipline of the householder, supports the transformation of sexual energy so the body may be adequately regenerated. When sexual energy is abused, the nervous system is weakened, and the body's aging process is accelerated.

Meditation To Heal the Wounds of Love
February is the month of love—or so our commercial world would have us believe. The truth is, each day, each moment, each breath is an opportunity to dance in the arms of the Divine, to know Infinite Love. How do we prepare ourselves to meet this possibility and make it a reality—with our every breath? Heal the wounds of love and become one with Infinite Love.

CHANT: The Four Letters of Guru Arjun to Guru Ram Das from Shabd Hazaray
There are four verses that make up Shabd Hazaray. Let’s call them 1, 2, 3
and 4 in the normal order that they are read. To that sound current we interweave
the mantra:
Aad such, jugaad such, haibhay such, nanak hosee bhay such.
Let’s call that mantra M.
Recite the four verses of Shabd Hazaray and the mantra in this order:
M, 1, M, 2, M, 3, M, 4, M, M, M, M
EFFECTS: Repeat this sequence 11 times to have the deepest effect. If you
want to change your relationships, drop the pain, empower them with clarity,
sensitivity and authenticity do this 11 times once a day for 11 days. Of
course you can do it each day for as long as you feel necessary or as long as you are enthralled with the beauty and space
it creates.
COMMENTS: These sounds are mantras—verses—written in the form of letters between Guru Arjun, the fifth Guru, and Guru
Ram Das, his father, the fourth Guru. There was perfect longing, love and fulfillment in the sentiments, feelings and projection
of these letters. Repeating these mantras takes you out of the normal internal chatter and emotional games of the mind
we usually live with. It purifies, aligns and strengthens the heart and soul.
