PARASYMPATHETIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
Hello Readers!
The Parasympathetic Nervous System(PNS) is called Sushumna Nadi (Central Channel). The central channel begins at the Mooladhara and passes straight up to the highest chakra i.e. Sahastrara. It expresses the power of awareness. Our Parasympathetic nervous system or Sushumna Nadi is governed by:-
*Shri Mahalaxmi
This system is self-governing. The Self or Spirit witnesses the action of the PNS which controls our involuntary activities such as heartbeat, breathing and reflex, that is, unconscious as opposed to conscious activity. Although we can to a degree control our sympathetic action, for instance, we can make our hearts beat faster, we cannot consciously slow the heart down, which is parasympathetic action.
The Self-existing at this level means that we cannot achieve Self-realisation through our own effort, only through God’s desire. Spirit is spontaneous; as natural and vital to us as our heartbeat. The spirit is infinite, while our rationality is finite, hence our efforts are also finite. Only Kundalini can bridge that great divide between illusion and reality. She is the trigger of divine bliss, that unites the attention to the Spirit, and carries you on into joy.
Our Parasympathetic nervous system or Sushumna Nadi is disturbed because of:-
- Materialism
- Extreme behaviours
- Negligence to the Dharma
- No spiritual seeking
- No spiritual growth
Disturbance in Left and Right Synthetic Nervous System causes disturbance in Parasympathetic Nervous System or Sushumna Nadi
To maintain the well functioning of PNS we need to establish a balance between the left and right sympathetic nervous system through Meditation(Sahaja Yoga)
On first awakening, Kundalini ascends Sushumna Nadi up to agnya chakra. It covers the lower plate of the brain (moordha) then descends like melting clouds on the Ida and Pingala nadis to the void. It fills this area and then the three combined powers of the three channels re-ascend the Sushumna to open the lotus petals of the Sahasrara. The Spirit, residing in the heart, has its seat at the top of the head in the centre. All the chakras have their seats in the Sahasrara. This is the fontanel area that is pierced by the Kundalini, the point of yoga at which the attention is united to the Spirit, the bramharandhra, the gate into the Brahmand.
The Sushumna is the central channel for our evolution. It is through this channel that we become collectively conscious and all the disparate factors of our being are integrated into one whole. It makes the connection between our conscious mind and the ‘Auto’ of the Autonomic Nervous System, the Spirit, which is the reflection of God. Sushumna is the way of dharma, the straight and narrow path by which we pass through the gate of the Agnya Chakra to enter into the Kingdom of God in the Sahastrara.
So with the Sahastrara open and the connection with Sushumna established, we are open to the source of all awareness where all knowledge dwells and sustained by the primordial source of all power (Adi Shakti). Meditation in thoughtless awareness is the key to the development of a strong Sushumna. Another basic requirement is to enjoy a virtuous and dharmic life. After realisation, we should try to be in thoughtless awareness as much as possible, with attention centred in Sushumna Nadi, the channel of the eternal present, where the only time is ‘Now’. In this way, with Kundalini awakening, we transcend time and space.
