HBO’s ‘Breath of Fire’ is a four-part documentary series that revolves around the life and spiritual teachings of Yogi Bhajan and Guru Jagat. Throughout the show, several former students, employees, and associates come forward and speak their truths. One of them was Guru Jagat’s former student, Nancy Koenig. Apart from sharing her experience of indulging in Kundalini Yoga with Guru Jagat, she also talked about how impressive her confidence and teachings were.
