Why choose this school
Why buy this book
1. It documents the Koghan Yoga system of zones. The nine main energy centers in the body. Koghan – Ko or mechanics, Gha or energy center. An interpretation of the term Koghan, Gha means energy center, Koghan means the process of generating energy through the energy centers. Koghan is like pranayama being that prana is the life force and pranayama means the mechanisms of generating the life force.
Koghan has nine major energy zones like the Crown Chakra,
the Third Eye, etc. and other minor energy zones such as the
palms of the hands to generate reiki, soles of the feet, into
the fingers for Mudras. The Gha energy zones 1 through 6, in the diagram of the zones, relate to the Chakras, except for the heart and solar plexus being combined which makes 6 energy centers or Chakras instead of 7. The other three zones are located in the back of the spine. The lower back, in between the shoulder blades, and the neck connecting to the brain are the most important because they are the roots that feed the Chakras and if not aligned properly aligned, Samadhi does not take place. The Koghan system is a way of generating, transmitting, and storing the life force energy. These psychic currents are generated through the body with specific alignment and pathways with the breath. This prana enlivens the energy centers of the body and the mind.
With these techniques, Kundalini Shakti can flow through the spine and to different areas for different purposes. With specific pranayama technique, one can easily enter a state of trance or Samadhi.
2. As a guide from beginners to the advanced application with unlimited possibilities. Preparing the body with props such as a “Longi” or rope and “Dhanda” or staff.
Combined with breathing techniques, you will learn to generate, store, and transmit Kundalini energy to the different Chakras for meditation, Madras or other advanced techniques.
3. It has a documented history.
Taught by Shiva to Arjuna. It has been brought to the Irrawaddy River Valley in Burma to a place called Sri Kshetra by the Pyu tribe from India around 300 BC to 500 AD. It was preserved by the monks in Burma. It was revived by U Ba Than Gyi in 1945 and brought to the USA by his son Dr. Maung Gyi.
The art of Dhanda was revived by Anant Krishna Vaidya from India 1880 through 1940.
This is a detailed documentation of these techniques with history and ancient scriptures.

Use of Props
The Use of Props to Achieve Correct Posture 1. Using the Longi and Dhanda Yoga are invaluable tools for preparing the body for correct posturing in the Hanthawaddy series. Without proper posture, energy will not flow effectively through the chakras and zones, making it difficult to achieve the trance state and kundalini shakti activation.
Practice the Longi and Dhanda series to train your body in alignment and breath, essential for activating the Hanthawaddy and Koghan systems.
