			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://purificationretreat.com/August-purification-2012.jpg" target="_blank">Intensive Purification, Advanced Sounds: June 30 &#8211; July 8, 2012,  Barchem, NL; PURIFICATION OF THREE BODIES RETREAT with Sri Shyamji Bhatnagar, Founder of InnerTuning®. </p>
<p>         Part I Three Body Purification – June 30 – July 4, 2012, Woodbrookers Barchem, Netherlands</p>
<p>- Fasting is fundamental to the purification process. Except where contraindicated, participants do not eat solid foods. They are provided with high quality herbs and husks, teas, vitamin C,  special tonics and shakes. This process is intended to cleanse the internal organs (colon, liver, kidney, bladder, spleen) as well as the blood and intestines.<br />
Other practices include synchronization of the brain hemispheres with the breath, visualizations and deep tone chanting.<br />
For several hours a day a speech fast will be observed. This is of paramount importance for the observation of thoughts and feelings, and ultimately leading to internal silence from which one can be guided from within.</p>
<p><strong>Purification of the physical body </strong> inspires the desire to keep the body healthy. Regular exercise and healthy diet become part of our routine. Physical purification sharpens all five senses. The first two days are dedicated to purifying the physical body.</p>
<p><strong>Purification of the subtle body </strong>cleanses our feelings. On the third day, the emphasis shifts to the subtle body and feelings which may have been buried beneath our awareness. Sometimes, old memories from early childhood emerge. This is part of the purification process. Since all members are there for the same purpose, they provide an unusually supportive environment for each other. We become in touch with our feelings on a deeper level. Relationships evolve creating contentment; competitiveness evaporates. In fact, we truly feel happy when others are succeeding. Helping others becomes a reward in and of itself. As the sounds of chakra tuning and mantras are chanted they act deeply on the subtle body. This supports the purification process and helps to increase sensitivity to sound.</p>
<p><strong>Purification of the causal body </strong>purifies our intentions. Interest in abstract thinking naturally emerges. The desire to turn the senses regularly inward occurs. On the fourth day, purified energy from the physical and subtle body is refined enough to penetrate the causal body. The process of thinking itself may begin to feel clearer. Special sounds which produce surya (golden) akash are chanted. This highly refined akash pushes more dense and toxic akash out of the causal body. Consequently the breathing rate drops and participants feel freer to meditate.</p>
<p>The fifth day is devoted to consolidating the gains of the previous days and preparing to preserve them after the retreat ends. This includes dietary suggestions for introducing foods after the fast.</p>
<p>         Price 650 euros p.p. all included. Couples 600 pp simple private room<br />
         (look at registration/info for a special offer)<br />
         www.woodbrookers.nl</p>
<p>         Part II. Advanced Sounds and Mantras – July 4 &#8211; July 8, 2012</p>
<p>ADVANCED SOUNDS and MANTRA, Dissolution of the Saboteurs of the Right Channel</p>
<p>Three bodies purification brings APANA DOWN in the right channel and allows the PRANA to rise in the left channel thus creating an atmosphere for new openings in the microchakras. When the APANA is down in the right channel, it gives Shyamji the opportunity to make sounds that loosen connections of triangles and other diagrams. Negative emotions such as anger, jealousy, fear and hate lose their intensity. One feels freer and more energetic. This allows the participants to sustain higher chakra awareness longer during meditation as the surya akasha is absorbed by the three bodies.<br />
This five day workshop for advanced sounds is offered only to students who have completed the three bodies purification. Organic meals are provided.</p>

<p>On this site there is a video where  Sri Shyamji Bhatnagar describes the five pranas (vital energies). The prana of the first chakra is called apana and has a strong influence on the colon. An unhealthy lifestyle may cause putrefaction in the colon and disturb the rhythm of the first chakra. This disturbance may rise and disrupt higher chakras. When Apana is purified your bowel rhythm is improved and you feel grounded, joyful, loving and stable.</td>
