Explaining The Sections Of Yoga

How Yoga breakdown

Yoga is outlined from old scrolls written by a variety of writers. Many of the writers come from the lands of Tibet, India, etc, and is written based on Hindi and Buddhist beliefs. When we consider yoga, one may think sit in the floor and meditate, yet the fact is yogic is a deeper action. In the rules of yogic, we have Hatha yoga, which masters breathing while leading the body to control, and expressing vitality in a new light.

Laya yoga helps us to master our will while controlling the mind. Laya works with Bhakti, which promotes love, and Shakti. Shakti helps to control our energy, while Mantra boosts sound. Yantra forms our mind and body, and leads us to practice Dhyana yoga, which is the method of empowering discrimination. Raja, Juana, Karma, Kundalini, and Samadhi yoga is also something we must learn to control self, activities, knowledge, etc.

To help you understand each section of yoga we can start with brief details of Hatha and move onto other methods of yoga.

Hatha: Hatha in summary focuses on our health, yet its meaning reaches to the Sun and Moon. According to the law of yogic, Hatha is utilized to promote breathing. Since Hatha refers to yogically breathing through the left and right nostril. The Right nostril in yogic notion means the sun, while the left nostril represents the moon.

Hatha means together, while yoga means to join. When the two combine, it joins Moon and Sun Breathing. In the moon and sun instance, moon is the negative force while the sun is the positive force. The concept is to combine negative and positive energy to reinforce healing. When you balance negative and positive thinking, you work toward an agreement that puts you in reality with your life.

Laya Yoga:
Laya yoga is the process of controlling the mind. In summary, people practice Laya yoga to achieve power over the mind, especially focusing on will power. Indians believe that Laya yoga should only be taught after the use of Pranayama, and/or after Hatha. You must master Hatha and/or Pranayama in other words, before you master Laya.

In summary, once you learn to master Hatha or Pranayama you will be in control of your body, and have complete discipline to move forward to Laya. This means you will move to disciplining the mind and body, working toward good health, and preparing to move ahead. It is similar to basic workouts. You wouldn't start strength training, until you have mastered the steps in training.

Once you have moved toward Laya yoga, you will next move toward Bhakti and Shakti. To master Bhakti you must learn to control the mind by joining Divine Love. Bhakti uses prayer to the higher power to achieve Divine Love.


Shakti Yoga:
Shakti is utilized to help one achieve Divine Power over the mind and body. According to the logic of yogic, those who practice Shakti intentionally learns to relate to their global side, while concentrating on the negative feminine involved in their lives. Shakti then is called the "Mother Goddess," whereas the male counterpart is considered a negative force that drives home masculine dualities. In some ways, this form of yoga is a degrading notion that believes that women bring forth negative while men bring forth positive, which our history has proven this notion wrong. However, one must truly relate and understand to the logic of Shakti to, completely appreciate its meaning. Shakti connects with Yin-Yang, which are the Doctrine of the Lamaism and the yum/yang of the male and female principles.
