Be one of the first to try our new activity feed yoga class at a generic studio located somewhere in the paved-over wilds of Southern California’s San Fernando Valley a newly minted graduate of a local training program instructs her brand of vinyasa flow in a way that delivers all of the sweat and none of the depth I’m not looking for enlightenment tonight; I’m looking to burn off that caramel-pecan brownie I enjoyed with my lunch is one of those ex-dancers who naturally gravitate to yoga in their postperformance years to dazzle envious stiffies like me with their grace Tatiana focuses more on the physical form of the practice than on its philosophical underpinnings that’s just fine: Her form is fantastic and delivered in plain English (we’re doing Down Dog But then she surprises me and goes all Sanskrit on us Half the class pauses mid-Sun Salutation to stare blankly at her One brave soul a few mats down finally asks: “What’s that?” we get in touch with our core muscles,” she says her instructions are simple: “Basically you just squeeze your anus shut and hold it.” Tatiana’s version of Mula Bandha is either a gross oversimplification or an outright misrepresentation But it’s the way many instructors teach this technique which is —like so much else about yoga —esoteric and intertwined with the ultimate goal: union with god It is safe to say that nobody has ever squeezed their way to enlightenment; otherwise our uptight type-A society would be rife with saints and sages I asked a few of the best teachers from around the country The word bandha is usually translated as “lock,” though, like most Sanskrit words a scholar of Sanskrit and Tantra who teaches yoga philosophy within the Anusara Yoga system Four bandhas are mentioned in the Hatha Yoga Pradipika and the Gheranda Samhita, two classical yoga texts: Mula Bandha is generally practiced in conjunction with asana; Jalandhara Bandha (Chin Lock) and Uddiyana Bandha (Upward Abdominal Lock) are more often associated with pranayama see Keep a Cool Head and Fly Right.) The fourth Maha Bandha (the Great Lock) is a combination of all three “The bandhas are specific positions of the body and manipulations of the organs designed to prevent the flow of energy from escaping the body,” Pomeda explains the bandhas are mechanisms by which an accomplished yogi can direct the flow of prana the universal life-force energy that animates and unites all of us but also much more than that: They serve as a gateway into the mental it’s easy to get caught up in the physical practice and totally forget that the physical component of yoga is just part of the preparation for enlightenment “We go through the physical body as a doorway but the effects on the physical body are secondary,” says David Life cofounder of New York City’s Jivamukti Yoga Center We may be in class to work out that part of ourselves that wants to look great in tight jeans and baby tees but the real point of our yoga practice is to shape up that part of our being that allows our truest nature to be experienced and expressed in the external world Tatiana was right —Mula Bandha does help us engage our core muscles and power up our poses “It’s really about awakening consciousness which is much more interesting than ‘contract your anus,”” says Life and you don’t usually start with the esoteric teachings.” which in the case of Mula Bandha is a toning and lifting of the pelvic floor Do any of these descriptions sound familiar to you Mula Bandha is both a subtle movement and one that involves a complex anatomical structure that’s not easy to isolate “There’s a whole sling of musculature that extends from the tailbone to the pubic bone and supports the internal organs,” Life says “What you’re trying to do is lift that sling.” Unless you’re an anatomist or a fully realized yogi (in which case chances are you’ve never even heard of most of the muscles that make up the sling Life refers to They’re a complex group comprising the deep and superficial transverse perineal muscles Forming a diamond shape at the base of your pelvis they are bordered by the pubic bone in the front it wasn’t a problem that the texts offered only a rough outline But now that we’re divorced from the guru-to-student dynamic even the most seasoned teachers do little more than recommend a dose of patience and a willingness to experiment with all of the different instructions you hear until you eventually discover Mula Bandha for yourself “There are times when I’ve told a class to contract anything they can find down there just to give them something to do,” Life says they’ll do their own investigation and get it on a deeper level.” an Ashtanga Yoga teacher and the director of the Yoga Workshop in Boulder offers this hint: “If you exhale very fully and smoothly you’ll notice that the end of exhalation creates a natural toning in the pelvic floor muscles that allows you to get the last of the breath out This is the point where Mula Bandha is set It’s really complex but really simple director of the Ashtanga Yoga Center in Carlsbad For all the confusion about what it is and how to do it even the greenest beginners may find themselves practicing Mula Bandha —and not even know it and as you do them you’ll discover you’re doing Mula Bandha once you “get it,” how will the bandhas change your practice Mula Bandha is so critical to the correct performance of asana that K instructs his students to keep Mula Bandha engaged throughout every practice; in fact he’s often quoted as saying that it should stay engaged 24/7 meant to emphasize the importance of Mula Bandha which when mastered and used correctly has the potential to transform even the most lackluster practice Mula Bandha is what helps Ashtanga practitioners find the balance they need to tackle arm balances and inversions and the strength and control they need for difficult tasks But the list of the physical benefits to a yoga practice is nearly endless and Freeman can rattle them off handily: “It’s grounding Correct movement of limbs becomes more natural they’ll be less likely to compress the spine They’ll find more space under the belly which is very convenient for twists.” you gain a real sense of the central axis of the body,” says Freeman “You learn to move from the lower belly feeling the pelvic floor and letting it participate in aligning the body It will help you integrate the movements of the body and give you the sense that you are composed of radiance…One becomes juicier and more able to express feeling with the entire body through every movement.” Iyengar teachers lead students into Mula Bandha with simple instructions that emphasize its practical application within each pose explains advanced Iyengar instructor Joan White Iyengar Yoga School of Central Philadelphia “The beauty of the Iyengar system is that it gives form through direction that’s easy to digest,” White says She offers an example: “When we sit at the beginning of class we are told to sit exactly on the center of the sit bones and to make sure that the space is even on either side of the anus that the pelvic floor should not be descending that the pubic bone should be running perpendicular to the floor and that the outer hips should be sucked in As we’re inhaling to get ready for invocation Gita Iyengar will often say that the sides of the navel should lift The effect of these directions creates Mula Bandha.” Iyengar believes it can be misused by those who might be distracted by one of its enticing side effects: increased sexual power “The practice of asana can be very external,” she notes “I think it’s important for people to remember the original context of hatha yoga,” says Pomeda who was a Vedic monk in the Sarasvati order for 18 years puts the practice into a much larger framework all practices are geared to the awakening of kundalini and the attainment of the highest realization.” Kundalini is the feminine energy that is classically depicted as a serpent coiled and asleep at the base of the spine she rises up through the spine to merge with universal consciousness at the crown chakra The bandhas —particularly Mula Bandha and Jalandhara engaged together—can be used to help create the internal pressure necessary to roust her out of her comfy home where she might otherwise snooze away forever you have to understand another branch of subtle anatomy: the vayus (vital airs) —patterns of energy that flow through the body yogis use Mula Bandha to help reverse the flow of apana vayu the naturally downward-moving energy that’s responsible for the body’s eliminative and reproductive processes (it comes into play with every bowel movement the apana is said to have its root in the pelvic floor,” says Freeman “If you exhale very fully and smoothly you’ll notice that it takes attention right to the root you draw your attention through the root as if you were drawing a string through the seat of exhalation.” The reversal of apana vayu alone does not cause a kundalini release but it helps create the right conditions for spiritual elevation “The bandhas are the bridles we use to train the vayus such as one would use a training string to tame a falcon,” says Harrigan “Training the vayus is an important and necessary step in setting the conditions not only for better health and more vitalized energy but also for improved spiritual development.” And though spiritual life certainly does not end with Mula Bandha, it does, in a sense, begin there. “Engaging Mula Bandha creates a foundation,” Harrigan says. “The root of the tree is important for the entire tree. Likewise, Mula Bandha is important for making asana and pranayama beneficial. Without the bandhas, these exercises have only physical effects.” To learn more about how to integrate Mula Bandha into your daily asana practice, read Mula Bandha in Action.

(REPRESENTATIVE PHOTO) The notice issued on March 22 to the civic body stated rampant illegal dumping of debris and rubble near Pimple Nilakh crematorium. Sanjay Kulkarni, city engineer and head of environmental department, PCMC, said, “In our reply to the notice, we stated that debris and rubble were dumped to create a temporary diversion of the riverfront development (RFD) work in progress along the river. However, orders have been issued to immediately remove the waste.” “This is a serious offence. The illegal fill must be removed at your own expense. The riverbed should be restored to its original condition without delay and failure will attract action under the Maharashtra Irrigation Act, 1976, and other government directives,” stated RB Gawhankar, assistant engineer, Khadakwasla canal subdivision, irrigation department in the notice sent to executive engineer of environmental engineering department of PCMC. The notice refers to the Act and a state government circular dated March 8, 2018, which prohibits such activities in river areas. The name Mula is inspired by the Sanskrit word meaning "root."

Baner on Friday many dead fish were found in Ram Nadi near Mula confluence in Baner on Friday chanced upon the dead fish during a site visit to monitor the ongoing Riverfront Development (RFD) work Group volunteers said that the death of the fish coupled with the destruction of the riverbank for beautification purposes highlights the urgent need to protect river ecosystems “Many fish have died at the Ram Nadi-Mula River confluence The reason might be the broken sewage treatment plant (STP) at this location and the contaminated water getting mixed with the river water many dead fish were found even in the Mutha River,” Mahajan said A similar incident was reported on December 23 in the Mula-Mutha River in which many dead fish of the Tilapia species were found dead on the banks of Naik Bet the Maharashtra Pollution Control Board (MPCB) on December 26 issued show cause notice to the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) stating that the civic body was discharging untreated effluent into the river The board asked the PMC to submit a response within 15 days to avoid action informed that such incidents are happening frequently in the city and this is the second such incident after the incident in the Mula-Mutha River “Today’s incident is similar to the previous incident no efforts are being taken by the civic body to prevent such incidents,” he said He added that the PMC should take measures to prevent river pollution and set up STPs and treat all the wastewater before being released into the river “The reason behind the death of the fish is unknown but it is likely to be pollution due to contaminated water The river water at this location has turned dark We have complained to the MPCB and PMC and officials from both have visited the location and taken samples,” he said the dissolved oxygen in the river decreases when the contamination in the river increases The bacteria feed on the pollutants that have entered the water it leads to an increase in the demand for dissolved oxygen This results in a large decline in the amount of dissolved oxygen available for fish and other aquatic animals which can lead to their suffocation and death “The issue is under investigation and the MPCB officials have also collected samples from the river The reason will be clear after the reports are received it is unusual to see fish die in the Ram Nadi as the river hardly has a fishing area,” he said “It should be checked if the fish died in some other area and came to this location of the river bed Ram Nadi is considered to be a drained river,” Dighe said Pune: People working for river conservation have claimed that thousands of dead fish were found floating in Mula-Mutha river an island situated on the river at Bund Garden The Maharashtra Pollution Control Board (MPCB) officials visited the site and collected water samples on Monday People working for river conservation have claimed that thousands of dead fish were found floating in Mula-Mutha river (HT) The incident came to light on Monday a member of citizen group Pune River Revival posted the dead fish incident on social media In her post Mahajan mentioned that volunteers Amitraj and Nishad Sevekari on Sunday documented dead fish found floating along the riverbank from the Naidu STP outlet till Bund Garden She alleged chemical contamination as the cause of death as volunteers reported bad odour in the river water “The dead fish mainly belonged to Tilapia species There was a pungent odour likely related to a chemical in the water The case needs a detailed investigation though we have not logged any formal complaint yet.” A MPCB official who visited the site requesting anonymity said “We have collected water samples to determine the cause of fish death We think that a sewage treatment plant developed some fault but only the sample analysis and study will reveal the cause of death We have instructed locals to not use the river water.” Incidents of fish dying due to contaminated water in Mula Pavana and Indrayani rivers is a perennial problem in the Pimpri-Chinchwad area and activists have been demanding concrete measures to prevent river pollution rather than just focusing on beautification A large number of dead fish were seen floating near Pimple Nilakh in the Mula River on Sunday has complained to Pimpri Chinchwad Municipal Corporation (PCMC) chief and environment department requesting to take immediate measures to prevent river pollution “A large number of fish were found dead due to the chemical contamination water released into the Mula river The civic body should take immediate action,” he said The civic body in its Environment Status Report (ESR) had stated all three rivers Mula Pavana and Indrayani in their limits remain polluted throughout the year These rivers are getting polluted due to the regular untreated contaminated domestic and industrial water released in the rivers PCMC received environmental clearance for its ambitious River Rejuvenation Project (RRP) of Indrayani and Mula River from the State Environment Impact Assessment Authority (SEIAA) “The dissolved oxygen decreases when the contamination in the river increases and when their numbers increase it leads ti increase in demand for the dissolved oxygen which can lead to their suffocation and death.” city engineer and head of environment department “Samples have been collected and sent to the laboratory for analysis Necessary action will be taken after the investigations are completed We have also notified the Maharashtra Pollution Control Board (MPCB) about the incident and pollution board officials will visit the location.” the chemically contaminated water is not released into the river within the PCMC jurisdiction “There are no industries in PCMC limits on the Mula riverbed route and it is possible that the untreated chemical water was released from Hinjewadi or nearby areas using a tanker,” he said © Copyright 2022 SNKRDUNK Magazine.All rights

various structures for the restoration and conservation of cultural heritage monuments with historical and ethnographic value represents a special moment of appreciation because with such an action we serve the protection of cultural monuments that are of not only local And the range of these monuments also includes the Chun Mula Tower which is a three-story building over two hundred years old Seeing the carelessness of the local and central authorities towards the monument of the Chun Mula Tower the emigrants from Malësia e Madhe organized to collect funds for its restoration as a cultural monument with special cultural and historical importance he managed to create a perfect organization because in the time frame of two years they managed to collect 440 thousand US dollars These were sufficient means to restore and conserve this object of special importance for the Great Highlands because it represents the history of the Albanian North In addition to those individuals who donated the necessary financial means whose names are on the entrance of the tower who carried out the restoration project and followed the implementation of the works There is no doubt that the restoration of the tower of Chun Mula (1818-1896) which is popularly known as the Tower of the Bajraktars of Hoti is a historical tower because twelve generations have lived in this tower from Luc Gjoni to their heirs until in our days 1919) by the Slavs (Montenegrins and Serbs) he received the final blow during the dictatorship in Albania in 1967 It was the time when the preaching of religion was officially banned in Albania where the heirs and family members of Çun Mula - the Bajraktar of Hoti expelled them from their tower and exiled them turning it sometimes into a school and sometimes into a warehouse Only after the fall of the monist system in Albania in 1991 the heirs of Chun Mula returned to their tower.  it returned to the "Malësia e Madhe" Museum This was the date of the inauguration where over two thousand participants were present from Malësia e Madhe There is no doubt that the largest number was from Malësia e Madhe were the main donors in financing the restoration of this monument various artifacts are exhibited that are of ethnographic value of the Great Highlands but also photographs of personalities from this province and beyond A special place is dedicated to the national poet Father Gjergj Fishta where he also stayed in the tower of Chun Mula where he wrote parts that are part of the monumental book "Lahuta e Malcis" Precisely by appreciating his work in the museum there is the room of Father Gjergj Fishta descriptions and studies and publications of foreign authors who have been as visitors or researchers in the province of Malësia It would even be a good idea to place a library for the Highlands (books magazines and newspapers) in a corner of the museum with students from different schools such as primary and secondary lectures can be held not only on the subject of history the Uprising of the Great Highlands (1911) There is no doubt that the compilers of the data for the various exhibits have a lack of data especially for some historical personalities but we hope that they will be improved by providing complete data Museum under the authority of the City Hall All those who will travel through the Malësia e Madhe from the south to Hot and continuing to Kelmend have the opportunity to visit the Museum "Malësia e Madhe" because the history and ethnoculture of the Albanian North is presented there this museum represents an added value for cultural tourism a phenomenon which has multidimensional values both for locals and foreigners.And finally it must be said that since there is no museum in Koplik as the administrative center of the Malësia e Madhe Municipality it would be appropriate for the Hoti Bajraktar Tower which is now called the "Malësia e Madhe" Museum to be under the jurisdiction of the Municipality who know the history and ethnoculture of the province and beyond Such an action would be in favor of the protection of cultural heritage in Malësi e Madhe as everywhere in the civilized world This site is
