Internal Arts
At Raja Naga Academy we teach a true warrior art and a warrior must develop internally as well as externally, therefore we also focus on Meditation, Healing and Tenaga Dallam or Internal Energy studies. Ancient breathing techniques and Indonesian Yoga, relaxation meditation and healing techniques, Guided Meditation to help keep yourself and those you love at the highest levels of mental and physical health.
Tenaga Dallam
Tenaga Dallam is a term we use to refer to internal energy, Prana or Chi. Tenaga Dallam is not just electricity or bio-energy. It is energy with intelligence. Every move you make, every thought and every second of your life you are working with and giving and recieving this energy at all times. It is my goal to make you aware of these energies so that you may fulfill your God given right to be in conscious control of all aspects of your existence so that you may live a full, enriched life that brings a lightness and sense of peace to your spirit and benefits all you come into contact with.
Meditation Categories
We have four general categories of Meditation excersizes but as you progress the lines tend to blur. Below is a very brief introduction into each aspect:
(1) Dynamic Tenaga Dallam Excersizes: These are moving, dynamic excersizes, designed to awaken and begin to give you an awareness of the energies of the body and how to manipulate them. These practices are not very difficult and help to build energy and are very beneficial for your health.
(2) Seated Tenaga Dallam Excersizes: Excersizes for accumulating, redirecting, and conserving Tenaga Dallam, and awareness and control of the Coiling Center in the lower abdomen. More attention to details are emphisized here. Some excersizes are even done on the purely mental plane. These practices focus mostly on holding on to the energy collected and using it consciously.
(3) Expanding Awareness and Sensitivity: Excersizes ranging from physical and energy sensitivity to fighting awareness. Some Shamanic excersizes and Trance-like states are used to help you to have a deeper connection to the subconscious, and a greater level of awareness in all aspects of your life, however our main focus is put into fighting, healing, and knowing and feeling the connection between ourselves and our environment.
(4) Samadi: These excersizes are simple ways to experience a glimpse of Samadhi or Meditative Absorbtion. These excersizes may have a more spiritual feel yet they do not involve or require the practice of any one Religion. For those interested in making themself a better person by establishing a deeper sense of well being and sense of equilibrium that is unconditional.
