Why is this book different than all the other books on Kundalini Yoga?
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.

Koghan – Gha Zones _ Energy Centers
To generate the kundalini Shakti or Min Zin energy, it is necessary to first prepare the three triangles created by the nine Gha zones shown in the picture above. The postures in the Hanthawaddy series are designed to activate all three triangles by working the correct alignment with proper breathing.
Once all three triangles created by the nine Gha zones are properly prepared and they can handle the movement of these psychic Lifeforce currents, then the intensity created by the Bandhas can be used to begin the movement of energy from the bottom of the spine to the top.
When they say that the kundalini serpent needs to be awakened from the base of the spine and work its way up this is what they are talking about.

Dhanda
The staff enhances alignment and helps maintain a central axis, allowing even twists through the spine. This wringing action activates all the muscles along the spine, including the abdominals, which helps squeeze out stale air and massage the internal organs. The coiling serpent series, which inspired the AMA symbol (a serpent coiling around a staff), is part of this practice.

Longi
Longi Yoga is crucial because it not only activates the spine through Zones 7, 8, and 9, but also pushes energy out into the palms, fingers, soles of the feet, and toes. It covers all essential functions and serves as excellent training for developing not only physical strength but also the pathways for psychic currents and Min Zin energy.

Hanthawaddy
Correct postures will energize the chakras. If the posture is done incorrectly, you won’t have synchronization. Inhale to center, set three specific triggers, and exhale on the twist or bend away from center. Since Hanthawaddy Yoga has its origin in the ancient Hatha Yoga system, any movement in one direction from center is balanced by a movement in the opposite direction. Simplicity of motion is the goal.
Min Zin
The movement of the Min Zin energy system relates to the Zones and pathways of the Koghan system. As we become aware of the muscles we use in proper breathing, we also become conscious of the energy that arises When we focus on breathing, the mind calms down. As the mind calms down, the body relaxes, as the body relaxes the breath becomes deeper and so on. We become more aware of how mind, breath, and body affect each other. This calms the emotions, which disturb the mind, and raises our awareness. We can then hear our pulses and feel the healing currents. This technique is used to “Spirit the Dhanda” or staff before doing Dhanda Yoga.

The Archer
For the archer, we will be using the specific breath pattern and Min Zin pattern listed below. On the exhale, the energy is generated from Gha Zone 8 in between the shoulder blades through the shoulders, elbows, wrist, and through the palms, index fingers, and thumbs
As mentioned before there are 9 major Gha Zones. Some of the minor Gha zones are in the palms and fingers, soles of the feet and toes. Here we are taking the energy into the Gha Zones in the palms, index fingers, and thumbs.
