he Khechari Mudra which is the key for attaining the divine body enjoys

celebrity status among all the mudras and other practices of yoga. It
involves cutting of the frenum, turning the tongue backward, inserting it into
the cavity above the palate and pressing the tip of the tongue against the
base of the skull to make a hole in it and finally leading the tongue to the
top of the head. Its practice restores health and prevents all diseases, brings
back youth, makes the gray hair black again and extends the longevity
beyond imagination. In the Hathyoga Pradipika it is mentioned as follows:

He who knows the practice of Khechari Mudra becomes devoid of diseases,

death, lassitude, sleep, hunger, thirst and stupor.(3:38).

The science and practice of Khechari Mudra is not easily available since the
adept masters (Gurus) knowing the Divine Yoga are rare. Moreover, the
knowledge of Khechari Mudra is kept a profound secret. It is revealed by the
adept master only to the deserving aspirant. In the Yoga Kundali Upanishad
it is said as follows:

One who is able to teach the Divine Yoga is the adept master (Guru). One
should go to the place where he lives and learn the science of Khechari
Mudra. (2:16). Again, it is said, This science of Khechari Mudra is very
difficult to obtain. Until the aspirant gets it, he should wander over the earth
(in search of it). (2:12).

What is found in yoga texts about the Khechari Mudra is far from adequate.
Its real technique and process are always kept secret. The true science of
Khechari Mudra is taught only to an aspirant who is spiritually prepared, and
that too only by word of mouth.

Lakulish spiritual tradition is fortunate to receive the secret technique and

mysterious procedure of Khechari Mudra as well as the science of divine
body from none other than Lord Lakulish, the twenty-eighth incarnation of
Lord Shiva, the originator of the Divine Yoga. In Yoga Kundali Upanishad it is
said, He who teaches this science (of Khechari Mudra) and its practice
should be regarded as Shiva.
