CRYSTALLIZING THE DIAMOND - YOGA OF PRANAYAM - kundalini yoga ...
Crystallizing the Diamond®
The program “Crystallizing the Diamond ” sets out to refine and enhance our personal
practice of the technology, so that we may implement it with greater awareness and
potency.

In the training and in the daily practice there is not always enough time to acquire all the
different facets of the technology with satisfactory depth and precision. Thus, we may not
be in a position to make the most out of our practice.

Each module of Crystallizing the Diamond specializes in one aspect of the technology and
builds on the foundations given in the training.

Each aspect will be fully presented and practiced with in-depth understanding and
precision.

Each module will demonstrate how the practice of the given facet of the technology is
complete in itself, and when practiced correctly can facilitate a ‘state of yoga’ – merging
the finite with the Infinite consciousness. Each module also places the given facet in the
context of Kundalini Yoga kriyas. Thus it experientially demonstrates how the refined
practice of any given aspect substantially enhances the effects of kriya. Further self-study
between appointments will help the student to perfect and consolidate their acquisition of
each aspect.

By the end of this program, we will be in a position to implement contemporarily the various
facets with increased awareness while practicing any Kundalini Yoga kriya. In this way, our
personal practice (Sadhana) will become highly effective in crystallizing the Diamond of
the Self to completion (Aradhana), enabling the Light of the Soul to shine forth as a beacon
for all (Prabhupati).

Crystallizing the Diamond® - The YOGA of PRANAYAMA
To master our life and mind, we must first master our breath. Breath is the key to effective
action and thought. It is the key to placing a creative seed in our heart, and having it bloom
in our actions.

Where there is movement there is prana. Anytime we move a thought, a feeling or our body
successfully, we organize our prana to support that action. The pranic body, if aligned and
charged properly, is the field of potential action that supports us and guarantees success.

The Yoga of Pranayama explores the implications and mechanisms of breathing to contact
our soul and awaken our awareness. Understanding, experiencing and mastering
Pranayama, will lead us to hold a practical tool for living life to our fullest potential.

This course covers topics such as:
     The Art of Breathing. Advanced Pranayama Kriyas;
     Yogic breath. Pranayama in specific Asanas. Nadis & Vayus;

Sara Avtar Kaur

Avtar Kaur, born in UK, a gymnast, dancer, singer and trained actress discovered Kundalini
Yoga when she was 19 and became a Kundalini Yoga Teacher shortly after.

Her first taste of Kundalini Yoga was on Yogi Bhajan’s Birthday, 26th August 1987, joining
the London sangat for the traditional birthday sadhana: chanting 2.5 hours of long “Ek
Ong Kar”. Avtar’s life was immediately connected and permeated by the Teachings.

Avtar is a Level 1 Lead Teacher Trainer and Level 2 Trainer and has taught modules in Italy,
Spain, Finland and Germany.

Meeting with Yogi Bhajan in 2001, Avtar presented to him her development of Shakti
Dance, the ‘yoga of dance’ - based on Kundalini Yoga. This, Yogi Bhajan approved and
blessed, saying she should “Create the whole dance, systemize it and spread the
Teachings.” Since then, Avtar has continued to develop, teach and train teachers in
Shakti Dance, spreading the discipline worldwide.

Avtar has also released two of her own CDs with music for Shakti Dance and Kundalini
Yoga: “Shakti Lila” and “Merging”, with more releases to come.

As a teacher and trainer, Avtar is both worldly and etheric. She combines the intensity of
her personal practice and life experience with a playful creative flow to sustain, align and
elevate students through physical, mental and energetic realms. Avtar’s teaching
facilitates students to liberate their Creative Spirit and connect with Source - that they may
rest in nourishing Being, with expanded peaceful Presence.
