    Hi MariaDine

    Oh yes there is the 6th rite. Not for everyone. LOL I won't ask who does this one!

    Here is a good description of its purpose and power. There are somethings I wont give up for youth and energy

    http://www.scribd.com/doc/7905854/Ti...ation-6th-Rite

    Quote Tibetan Rejuvenation Rite #6restricted exercise

    The series of Five Tibetan exercises described above is capable of being practiced two or three
    times a day everyday during the entire lifetime. In contrast, the following exercise, according to
    the Tibetan Lamas, has a very special purpose and it ought to be practiced only in
    circumstances described below. If you are not sure, and do not practice the first five exercises
    regularly, do not practice this exercise. You have been warned.

    The deemed purpose of the Tibetan #6 exercise is to redirect the excess of sexual and
    reproductive energy, generated by the activity of the what is perceived of as being the base
    chakra (also referred to as vortexes) to all higher chakras along the spine, especially to the brow
    chakra, which activity is related to our spiritual awareness and psychic abilities. According to

    Lamas this exercise ought to be practiced only when the excess of the sexual urge is
    experienced, otherwise this exercise does more harm than benefit, by draining the energy from
    the base chakra.

    By systematically practicing the first five Tibetan exercises it is quite possible to raise the energy of the base chakra so much, that the sexual urge appears and requires to be dealt with. This is capable of happening at any age.

    One way to handle the situation is to dissipate this powerful energy in sexual activities. The
    Tibetan alternative is to transmute it to higher use, to accelerate your spiritual development and
    rejuvenate the physical body. Instead of dissipating the reproductive energy you may choose to
    use it to regenerate cells in your entire physical body. The choice is yours; you have the free
    choices, as always.
    This is why those monks stay so young!

    Thanks, great teaching... much simpler than the salutation to the sun for older folks... I love to spin. Sufis do it too, so inheritantly, it is a muslim practice also.

    Salute To The Sun is also a great practice for body mind and spirit.

    You are meant to do it in the morning facing the East.
    Thank you, astrid. I feel better already after watching that - seriously.

    She is almost as flexible as I am - joking

    I am trying these exercises, and I find that I need to work up to 21 reps on any of them. It does say to spin till you start to get dizzy, If you follow that, you should find your natural pace up to 21 each time. I tried 12 reps on most of them yesterday, and felt a lot of energy moving around for some time after ,and felt so tired a while after that that I took a nap. I am not use to any time of energy routine on a daily basis, and I am starting this at a time when the world energy is going into high gear, so I am alert for my natural pace here as well as the standard complaints of body and mind that cause people to give up on programs like this. I would like to here anyone elses thoughts on the pace of these things, as well as tips on how they made thee a daily habit.

    You need to slowly build up to 21 reps

    How many time should I repeat each exercise?
    You want to work toward performing each of the movements 21 times. When you first begin, try to do 1 or 3 repetitions of each exercise. After a week, try to do 3 repetitions, then pause and try 3 more. You will certainly feel stronger in some of the movements than others. If you have trouble performing a complete set of 21, try to break it down into 3 sets of 7 repetitions with a pause between each set. Once you've achieved 21 repetitions of each exercise, you don't need to go on to more repetitions. These exercises are for restoring energy, not necessarily building strength. If you feel great after doing 21 repetitions of each movement, feel free to add another session later in the day to perform another set of 21 repetitions each.

    Hello !

    In the first 50 seconds of this video is thaught the way you can turn around, without getting dizzy.

    Chose a spot to focus, on eyes level ------------so that you don'tlook up or down, because that alters the verticality of your spine , --- and do as it is explain on the video. Star slowly, until you get the hang of it. With time , you will be able to do the 21 repetitions. After that...a considerable time after that, You will be ready to do the spins faster, and faster.

    Ps - Do the spin with the arms open to the side , at shoulder level ----Just like it is done on the 5 Tibetans. Arms to the side helps to balance the spin.

    For me is easy to do...I was a professional ballet dancer and now, I teach ballet, yoga Iyengar and Pilates.

    Hi Johnf
    You should begin by doing only three of each exercise and build up slowly, such as adding one extra each week. Do not rush, its about opening chakras, building energy and flexibilty.
    Take care and read instructions carefully, and don't forget the correct breathing.

    Hi Conk

    Please do not do the sixth exercise until you have been doing 21 of the other 5 for some months.

    How would we do this? Share favourite exercises, routines? I have not done a lot of real Yoga.

    Master the breathing technic and one of the «side effects» is that you get thin. Start 5 minutes a day, soon you will find yourself doing it longer, because it feels so good.

    Alternate nostril breathing , the easy one to do ------ start with an easy count. Then after a time you can hold for longer. ( /10 counts)

    Watch the 2 video for Pranayama
    Count to 6 breathing in. Relax your tummy/belly breathing in .

    Hold your breath for the same time, 6 counts

    Exale for 6 counts. It hepls if you slowly contract your belly while you breth out (like when you are blowing a big ballon).

    Hold again for 6 counts.
