I often tell classes when I have them in a rest period, to drop all tension from the previous exercise. What happens after a tough pose or movement is that the mind wants to stay ready so the student keeps the body tense in anticipation of another tough exercise. When you're done with something, an action, a job, an exercise, then you should drop everything associated with it and become neutral. There's a time for action and a time for rest. The applies to everything in life. The mind is, in part infinite and we often carry around much more than we need anticipating the next tough thing in our lives.

In the past, spiritual tradition was typically handed down from Master to Student at great physical cost. A new Chela, or student, wishing to find a master and learn the spiritual path would travel arduously up into the Himalayan mountains and once he found the master, would then work for that master for several years or more until accepted. That is if the master accepted him in the first place and allowed him to work. After this tremendous expression of commitment, the student would then get one kriya to practice and master.
