PROSPERITY

What I love about Kundalini yoga is that its for your PROSPERITY.
Its for your success. Its for your abundance. Its for you achieving
whatever it is that you came to achieve on this earth and to make a
living doing it.

A lot of people, especially if their really conciencious and care

about the world, have trouble reconciling their desire to do good in the
world with their need, and even desire, to make a living. And there
really shouldnt be a chasm there. You are allowed to have financial
wellness. But I think part of the confusion is that, in the west, weve
been promised fulfillment through money. And I can tell you that you
wont find your deepest fulfillment through money. However, just
because the truest fulfillment doesnt come through money, but that
doenst mean you shouldnt have any money at all or that you
shouldnt enjoy abundant of wealth.

Kundalini yoga has many techniques for actualizing and bringing

into reality, true, tangible wealth. But before we get into how real
wealth is created and money can be held, I think its important to talk
about the bigger picture of money and that is prosperity.

PROSPERITY
In reality, it doesnt matter how much money you have. It
matters what you relationship is to your own abundance. And this
relationship is a thought-form. You could be a total billionaire, with
bank accounts in the Caymans and the latest Lambourgini and have all
the trappings of a wealthy person and still relate to your wealth from a
scarcity point of view. Many people do. They have all the money in
the world and they still feel poor. They still feel like, Any minute it
could all be taken away, or, Its still not enough, or Someone else
has more than me. And this is from someone who, by all external
realities, is not poor. But they think they are.
Whatever scarcity youve been relating to its an absolute
untruth. Someone who has very little can live like total royalty if their
thought forms are abundant.
You might think there are very real reasons around your lack of
money or someone elses abundance of it. We do live in a world where
there are very real class divides. However, this isnt about money.
This is about proseperity and prosperity is in your consciousness.
Poverty consciousness can be so deep and rule every single
action of every day. It may not show up in the classical ways simply
having fear based thoughts around money - it may show up in other
ways. For instance, you might have an impoverished way of relating
to yourself and to the world. You might feel like you have no time

(time poverty), fear taking risks or be stingy in your love for others.
However it shows up, this poverty consciousness is draining your
energy in a way that you are not able to deliver to the planet what you
came to deliver. Then you cant have fulfillment. And if you dont
have fulfillment, it wont matter how many millions you do or dont
have.

Look at the ways all the ways in which you are engaging in an
impoverished manner and see if you can start to dissolve and
disengage those thought forms. You need to organize your thoughts
in a certain way if you want your million dollars to come through. You
need to be strong enough, generous enough and you have to widen
everything.
Widening is a combination of actual bio-physio nervous system
strength and emotional and psychological perspective.
You have to widen your nervous system in order to receive the
literally immense wave of prosperity thats coming at you. If your
nervous system is only able to conduct so much pleasure, happiness,
joy and prosperity, then no matter how much is there, youre only
going to experience the amount to which your nervous system can
uptake.
And you have to widen your perspective. If you have the
nervous system to conduct more prosperity, but your psychology and

your emotional habits are still very scarcity oriented, then you wont be
able to utilize your nervous system capacity for more abundance. Its
like having a computer but not tunring it on. Youll never access the
internet.
One way we widen our perspectives this is we start to look at life
as a whole spectrum, life as a whole journey, life as a whole blessed,
blessed, blessed, blessed incarnation. Its just so big and vast and
beautiful and such a precious gift. When we start to relate with the
imenstiy of our being, we can move methodically and step by step in
the direction of our greatest fulfillment. When we widen, theres less
tension. Then you can relax and more things can happen for you.

REAL MONEY
Now that weve covered what it means to have true abundance
and true prosperity, lets get into some of the technologies around
actual money.
The amount of material wealth that you can hold is directly
related to how grounded you can be. This doesnt mean solely
focusing on material concerns. Visioning and big picture thinking are
going to guide your total fulfillment. But wealth, actual material
prosperity takes groundedness. It takes practicality, hard work and a
yogic practice called auric rooting.

Libby question: What is groundedness and why does material

prosperity require that?
This idea of auric rooting can feel little foreign for some people.
For others, youre going to intuitively get the sense right away of what
this means. But for those of you who feel a bit new to this concept,
heres how it works. When you get sensitive to your energy body,
which will come in time, you can start to command that body. When
you send it into earth, literally command the energy body through the
heel of each foot, and anchor that energetic body in the earth, that is
called auric rooting. And the amount of material wealth that you can
hold is directly related to how deeply your aura can root.
Ultimately, one of the foundational pieces for me around
business, being successful, money and profit is delivering from a space
of true giving. Whether thats a service rendered or, in my personal
business as a yoga teacher and owner of the Ra Ma Institute, allowing
someone to come even if they dont have the money. Even in the Ra
Ma boutique I curate the offerings to have value, not just commerce
value, but actually hold energy, offer healing, offer learning, purify your
space, make your body feel goodboutique items that give. Theres
power when you come from a space of compassion and care. When
you serve before the bottom line, there is a wave of gratitude from the
collective consciousness and thats more powerful and more
profitable.

FULFILLMENT
Inextricable woven into matters of money and prosperity is the
bigger, more expansive, more life-time experience of fulfillment. We
have to find fulfillment now on the planet. Its one thing to have
success. We live in a country where theres lots of success and very
little fulfillment. Very little. The amount of success to the amount of
fulfillment is a very high chasm.
I think its very important that we start to understand is that
fulfillment is different than success. Success, whatever your version or
your conditioned version of what that looks like, is an external
experience. We have all kinds of programs conditioned in us from a
very early age of what success looks like or what it doesnt look like.
You get into the rat race and you get the degree, and the job, and the
promotion, and the raise, and the house, and the car, and the thing
and the other things, and all the thing thing thing.
Even if its success, even if its in the model of success, even if
theres monetary success, its not a fulfimment of the soul. Its not a
fulfillment of destiny.

We want true human fulfillment, not just some idea of success, and
thats a whole other level. Humans dont feel fulfilled unless they feel

like they are delivering what they are meant to deliver which is not you
business your overwhelm, your anxiety, your depression, your
neurosis, your narcissism. Thats not going to fulfill you.
We are inherently wired for happiness. Were not wired to be
depressed. Everything in our system is wired to be happy and not only
happy, but fulfilled, which creates true happiness. fulfillment.
Thats the axis and the orbit. The fulfillment is when the axis and
the orbit work together so that we actually feel like we are delivering
what we are meant to deliver.
Your success can really take any shape, any container, on this
planet. It doesnt really matter what it looks like. It matters what your
experience is. What does experience mean? Feeling a sense of
achievement, puropose, happiness. And most people will find that they
are experiencing a level of satisfaction that they call success when two
yogic aspects are in place and balanced: Your axis and your orbit.

Your axis is your internal alignment. How you organize your

identity, priorities, and your mission. Its your inner conviction. When
your mind and being are centered on the right axis, you will be happy
no matter if you are rich or poor. How do you work on your internal
alignment

Your orbit is your outward sphere of influence. Its what you do

in the world. How you chose to circulate in the material arena and how
you choose to serve others. When your being is circulating in your
right orbit, you will be rich whether or not you are happy.

So to have success, fulfillment, prosperity, you want to be on

both your right axis and your right orbit. Because when both are right
and are in harmony you will be rich and happy!
