AGOCHARI MUDRA (Nose Gazing Technique)


AGOCHARI MUDRA (Nose Gazing Technique)-

Agochari Mudra or Nose Gazing Technique is very powerful and effective yogic technique to activate Muladhar Chakra in short span of time or we can say that this is the easiest and most effective technique to activate muladhar chakra, where Kundalini Shakti rest. Kundalini Shakti is represented by Snake having two mouths coiled three and half times and upper mouth of that serpent (kundalini shakti) is opened by which some Prana Shakti pervades in ourselves to sustain life by way of breathing etc. However, before activating Muladhar Chakra and activating Kundalini Shakti forcefully, it is always advised to first invoke Sushmana Nadi and only then start doing any other yogic technique of Kundalini Yoga. Hence it is always advised to practice any kind of Yogic sadhna only under any competent guru, otherwise it may possible that practitioner instead of getting any benefit may suffer irreparable damage/loss on psycho-physiological plane.

Agochari Mudra or Nose Gazing technique is primarily yogic technique to activate Muladhar Chakra but in actual it also activates Agya Chakra. As Muladhar Chakra is also directly connected to Agya Chakra. If any person is activating Agya Chakra then his Muladhar will also get activated upto some extent and vice versa.

Now I am going to tell you that how to do Agochari Mudra- First you have to sit in some comfortable Asana/pose like Padma Asana, Sidha Asana, Sukha Asana, Gupta Asana, Vajra Asana etc. in which your spine and neck must be in straight line and then close your eyes and first do 4 rounds of Anulom Vilom slowly. After completing Anulom Vilom, you just be aware about your incoming and outgoing breath for 4-5 minutes and then open your eyes and start doing gazing on tip of nose by pointing your eye balls on tip of nose. While doing gazing on tip of nose, you must be focusing on shape ‘V’ of Nose and if you are not able to see Shape ‘V’ then you must correct your focus. The easy way to do the same is by way of putting thumb in front of your face and start gazing on thumb and then bring your thumb slowly towards nose tip while continuing gazing on it and then shift your focus from thumb to tip of nose. By this way, you will be able to gaze correctly on tip of nose while having shape ‘V’. You have to focus on tip i.e.  on tip of ‘/\’. 


To get benefit of this Mudra, you must try to gaze on tip of nose atleast for 10 minutes twice a day. And you will feel that after some time your will power has become stronger and stronger and now you are able to counter your fear or any task of your life with great ability. If you will be able to continuously do this yogic technique for long period then you will start experiencing some divine experiences like smell of some divine fragrance and many people may also feel vibration in Muladhar Chakra and automatic kapalbhati kind of movement in abdominal area near “Manipur Chakra”, which you would not be able to stop on your own because its caused due to movement in Kundalini energy. Actually Kundalini Shakti trigger from Muladhar and settles in Manipur Chakra, so while practicing this Agochari Mudra, many of you may also feel activation of all chakras including Manipur Chakra. 

Last but not least, it is again advised to all readers that don’t try any kind of Yogic Sadhna on your own but only under guidance of Competent Guru. While practicing any kind of Kundalini Yoga technique, it is advisable to have pure life including pure vegetarian food.    Please also read my warning /alert post in the beginning of Blog.

Rev Sir, I've a query , in RS faith I've read about a mental state Un-Mun-Sun Avastha , is there any connection between this Un-Mun-Sun & Unmani Avastha ?? It may be irrelevant to ask such a question under the discussion of Agochari Mudra though ..Sorry for that Sir ..

Sir, which is better to practise- agochari mudra or bindu tratak? Which is more beneficial?

Hello, sorry for delayed response. Both are good. But Agochari Mudra has its own impact. Agochari Mudra i.e. Gazing on Nose Tip activates Muladhar very quickly and upto some extent Agya Chakra Also. Whereas, Tratak on bindu primarily activates Agya Chakra. Every one is supposed to work upon each and every Chakra if you want to elevate your energies to higher chakras. Please note before doing any kind of Yogic Practise, you must do nadi shodhan pranayama first.
