Maha Bandha
The Great Lock
Maha Bandah, also known as The Great Lock, is created when you apply simultaneously Mula Bandha, Uddiyana Bandha, and Jalandhara Bandha. Maha bandha is central to Kundalini Yoga as its main purpose is to awaken Kundalini Energy. This is done by uniting Prana Vayu with Apana Vayu, and sparking the awakening of the Kundalini Energy which is then forced to move up the Sushumna Channel and activate the seven chakras.
