I recently purchased a book titled Kundalini Tantra by Swami Satyananda Saraswati.
In it there are about 20+ or so Kriya yoga practices.
There very first one is named Vipareeta Karani Mudra. I'll link to pictures of it down below.
The idea is to lay on your back and raise your legs vertically in the air, so they are pointing upwards in a straight line towards the sky, then you are supposed to inhale and exhale with "ujjayi" while visualizing a nectar entering your base chakra all the way up to your throat chakra on the inhale and then to your remaining three chakras on the exhale.
Okay, besides the near impossibility of the posture that I am expecting to remain in while visualizing something, the method itself seems fucking ABSURD!! Like it's very difficult for me to believe this will actually do anything.
I am saying this because it has been wrote about on the joyofsatan website how yoga has been corrupted by the enemy. So can someone tell me are things like this a bunch of bullshit too?
In the book there are other easier ones but it is stuff like visualizing a lotus blooming on your crown chakra and extending down your spine with roots coming out your base chakra into the Earth.
It sounds ridiculous and I can't comprehend what any of this will actually do. I am not a stranger to meditation or spiritual work, but this type of Kriya Kundalini practice I am new.
Please tell me if I am wrong? Or if I am right and there are other practices which I should use instead.
Here is a link to a picture of the position you're supposed to be in while visualizing nectar running through your chakras.
