Tattwa Gayatris

Tattwa Maha Kriya is a set of exercises aimed at the decontamination of the constitutional tatvas. It should be preceded by Tattva Kriyas. According to the Indian model of the world, tatvas are the constitutional components of the manifested world. On the macro level, tatvas exist in three types: pure, partially contaminated, and contaminated. Our existential level is composed of contaminated tatvas. A person is also composed of contaminated tatvas, which are further contaminated by their potentially suboptimal personality traits and karmic burden. While it is difficult for us to address contamination on the macro level, it is possible to address it on a personal level. As the diagram shows, the system in which we exist has a general and a personal dimension. The general dimension includes Purusha, Prakriti, and Mahat. The individual dimension includes Ahamkara, Manas, Indriyas (Jnanendriyas and Karmendriyas), as well as Tanmatras and Mahabhutas/Tatvas. For the decontamination of Mahabhutas/Tatvas, we use Tatva Maha Kriya, which consists of Kapalabhati, Tattva Gayatri, and meditation.
