"You cannot dismiss the actual photographs of kechari mudra which come from an authentic kriya master of the Lahiri lineage shown on
http://www.siddhasiddhanta.com/khechari.html"

Sure I can. I wasn't going to comment on this but since you brought it up...From Hans' picture at the top of your website the tongue is making contact with the bony protrusion around the spheniod sinus (below the pituitary.) Also on your website you quote Frater DPAL (Norman Paulsen?) where he says that the tongue should make contact with the bony protrusion below the pituitary. Now, I don't know if this information from Frater DPAL and Hans' are valid but I can certainly see that Shailendra's tongue is barely in the nasal cavity - not even close to touching the bony protrusion below the pituitary. So either the information you provide from Hans' and Frater DPAL is incorrect or Shailendra has not mastered khechari. From my readings of some of the old Kriya writings I think both are the case.

Anyways, I think the pictures of Shailendra are a bit over the top. I don't think it benefits Kriya to present it in this way. Apparently in khechari is a sacred part of Kriya initiation not to be publically displayed. This sort of display on the web does not seems to be in keeping with "original" Kriya.
