PRODUCT For approximately four decades, my teacher Yogi Bhajan consistently referred to daily sadhana as the most important practice once could do to enable a pathway towards self-mastery and to achieve and maintain success. Ideally - early morning sadhana incorporates Japji Sahib (a prayer of attunement with the soul), Kundalini yoga, meditation and Gurdwara (Gurus Gate) a meditative, musical and chanting based prayer service. In this my first book, I share my experience of practicing daily early morning Kundalini Yoga and meditation (Sadhana) for over 50 years. Included are techniques, tips and vegetarian recipes to support developing a practice, and many quotes from YB on the subject. The book also offers numerous suggestions to support your efforts building consistency with this practice which will uplift and transform you. Notable Endorsements for The Essential Element: Sadhana is the cornerstone of a spiritual practice. In this book, SS Jot Singh Khalsa gives a full explanation of Sadhana and shares the wisdom he has gained from decades of experience. He addresses the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual aspects of starting and maintaining a Sadhana. It truly is a wonderful guidebook for anyone committing to work on themselves by doing a Sadhana.
