Hello guys,
I have a question about the different spinning sensations I have.
Lately I have been doing rosary prayers almost everyday and I get the spinning sensation like those I get from doing IAM meditation. However, the sensation is different from the one I get during IAM. While the sensation from IAM is the head spinning in circle. The one from doing rosary is my upper body started rocking back and forth.
From what I read in the internet, these spinning sensation might be our energy flows correcting itself.
At first, I thought it maybe my progress that changed this sensation. But I tried doing IAM meditation and the spinning sensation is still circle spins, and then I tried rosary prayer the sensation is upper chest swaying. So it is the different method that creates this variation and not progress.
But what I am curios at is why is it different? And is it dangerous to do both? not that I am doing both right now, I stopped doing IAM meditation awhile ago and decided to stick to the rosary prayers for now. But in my opinion, the result from IAM is much more powerful. |

Hi, If by rosary prayers you mean japa using mantra then the effects are different.Japa is primarily for purifying the nervous system and not for altering the consciousness as happens in meditation.There is a fine line between the effects of both but a definite difference. L&L Dave |

Hello riptiz,
Did you meant to say that Japa is for altering the consciousness and meditation is for purifying the nervous system?
because I have been doing rosary prayers/japa for quite a while now without doing the IAM meditation. I was afraid of the changes to my life that came from doing the IAM meditation, the changes are positive but somewhat too extreme for me even though I am not doing it too often as advised. (Probably just because of my personality though)
So I thought maybe its not for me and started doing rosary prayers instead. There weren't noticeable changes with the rosary prayers, I didn't quit bad habits, grew more patient or calmer, in fact I am slowly returning to my bad habits (smoking, tea addiction, pills and such) but somehow my perception of life has changed a little. I am not sure if it's related to the rosary prayers I am doing though.
Lately, I have been missing the time when I did the IAM meditation. I think i miss the inner silence thing that I gained from doing IAM or maybe its the feeling of purification. not sure what it is I liked but I am going to try doing IAM and the rosary prayers. I hope its safe to do both though.
----- I also realized how much Yogani had given to my life by sharing the IAM lessons publicly, thanks Yogani =)
