John Kaldawi Reviews - The Golder Temple:


John Kaldawi visited the Golden Temple in the city of Amritsar, in the state of Punjab, India.  To begin with, Amritsar is a holy city for the Sikhs who are the majority in the Amritsar district.  It is known to be the spiritual and cultural centre for the Sikh religion which attacks more visitors than almost any other shrine in India.

Doing more research, John learned that the main activities in the city of Amritsar is tourism, fabrics, handcrafts, and carpet.  The city is has many cuisines and was chosen as one of the heritage cities in India, and is also one of the largest cities in Punjab, India.  The city is also known for the massacre that took place in 1919 by the British military.

John Kaldawi also learned after doing more research that after the partition of British India into India and Pakistan, this had a profound effect on all aspects of life in Amritsar, especially because Punjab was divided between two countries and Amritsar became a border city and suffered the results of the conflict between India and Pakistan.

John Kaldawi believes that the Golden Temple has an incredible energy and a must see and be felt and experienced by all those who are on the spiritual path who seek higher levels of consciousness.

Pranic currents and the breath

John Kaldawi learned that the pranic currents, ida, pingala and sushumna, operate alternately.  The current that is flowing at any particular time may be gauged by noting the flow of breath in the nostrils.  When the left nostril has a greater flow of air, then ida nadi is predominant.  When the flow is greater in the right nostril, then pingala is predominant.  If the flow is equal in both of the nostrils, then sushumna is predominant. Doing more research, John Kaldawi learned that when the right nostril (pingala) flows, there is more vital energy for physical work, digestion of food and so on.  The mind is extroverted and the body generates more heat.  When the left nostril (ida) is flowing, mental energy is dominant.  The mind is introverted and any kind of mental work may be undertaken. During sleep ida nadi flows.  If pingala flows at night, sleep will be restless and disturbed.  Likewise, if ida flows while taking food, the ...

John Kaldawi opinions about Compassion

John Kaldawi was inspired by the virtues of Compassion which is the complete flowering of true love in human beings. Love is our intrinsic quality, we are born with it, it is just a matter of being aware of it.   Awareness makes our love stronger and makes it a virtue and brings out the Compassion within us.   Doing more research, John learned that Compassion is the ability to identify and understand the emotional state of another person.   It has the element of reducing the suffering of another associated with the feeling to help.   If someone try to hurt us, instead of having negative feeling towards them, we assume instead that they had a good reason for doing what they did given their particular circumstances. John Kaldawi also learned that Compassion is a process of connecting by identifying and feeling one with another person.   This identification with others through compassion can lead to increased motivation to do something in an effort to...

Animal postures, Yogasanas and Prana

John Kaldawi learned that in ancient times and through observation, the rishis understood how animals live in harmony with their environment and with their own bodies.   They understood, through experience, the efforts of a particular posture and how the hormonal secretions could be stimulated and controlled by it.   For example, by stimulating the rabbit or hare in shashankasana they could influence the flow of adrenaline responsible for the 'fight or flight' mechanism.   Through imitating animal postures, the rishis found they could maintain health and meet challenges of nature for themselves. Furthermore, John Kaldawi learned that Prana, vital energy, which corresponds to 'ki' or 'chi' in Chinese medicine, pervades the whole body, following flow patterns, called nadis, which are responsible for maintaining all individual cellular activity.   Stiffness of the body is due to blocked prana and a subsequent accumulation of toxins.   When prana begins to ...
