The First Sutra of the Aquarian Age

Graduation day sunlight had a softness to it; everything felt like a blessing. Preparations were underway for the ceremony where I would be acknowledged as a certified KRI Kundalini Yoga teacher. Two more teachers from the Mackay Sangat were joining us for the celebrations and soon they arrived with huge smiles and open arms.

If you’ve ever spent time in a community kitchen, volunteered at a local shelter, or simply offered a helping hand without expecting anything in return, you’ve already experienced seva. It’s a small word with a huge, beautiful meaning — and one that’s been quietly shaping lives and communities for centuries. But what exactly is seva? Who practices it? When and where does it happen? And most importantly, how can we all bring more of it into our lives?

In Kundalini Yoga, we don’t just stop at the idea of body and mind. We stretch further—ten bodies further, to be exact. One physical body, three mental bodies, and six energy bodies make up the constellation of you.

“Me within me is the purity. Me within me is the reality. Me within me is the grace. I am the Master of the space.”

THE SUBTLE BODY NO.9

When Yogi Bhajan spoke about women, he spoke in absolutes, in the language of Infinity. In his view, a woman is not defined by roles, titles, or the expectations of the world around her. She is defined by her consciousness, by her ability to live from her vastness, even while standing in the middle of the challenges.

Every August, a doorway opens in the sky. The ancients knew it. The Egyptians built the Great Pyramid of Giza in alignment with it. The yogis felt it in as a surge of life‑force moving through the spine. We call it the Lion’s Gate,  the heliacal rising of Sirius, our spiritual sun, aligning with the Sun in Leo. It happens in the first weeks of August, peaking on the 8th day of the 8th month.

In Kundalini Yoga, “caliber” is the foundation that grounds you in difficult times and keeps you true to yourself when life gets challenging.

Beyond the Mask: When Spirituality Feels Like a Costume

Have you noticed how everyone’s suddenly obsessed with “optimising” themselves? Cold plunges at dawn, mushroom powders that cost more than your weekly groceries, AI trackers telling you when to breathe, sleep, and apparently exist. People are lining up to freeze their butts off and biohack their brains into calm. Meanwhile, Yogis thousands of years ago were doing the same thing. Minus the wearable gadget and the TikTok hustle.

When I first stepped onto this path, it wasn’t because I knew exactly where I was going. It was because something deep inside nudged me forward to trust that growth happens when allow it  to in grace, even when the way is not fully mapped.
