There are many westerner followers of Yogi Bhajan and they keep on coming out with their self-concocted meditations and mantras. All hocus-pocus and are pushed onto gullible white westerners under the garb of Sikh yoga. I accept the value of yoga asanas and kriyas for cleansing and vitalising the body and its pranic system. Benefits of asanas on healing and vitalising the body, of pranayama on the nervous system are widely accepted. They are really valuable.
But Naam Simran is the central and core teaching of Gursikhi and that should not be marginalized in any Sikh teaching.
