Lotus significance in yoga

 To a yogi, the Lotus flower symbolises the expansion of the soul and spiritual awakening.  The roots of a lotus are grounded in the mud (earth/materialism).  The stem grows up through the water (growth/life experience) and blooms above the water, in the sunlight (awakening/enlightenment). . . #lotus #significance #importance #value #flower #symbol #awakening #enlightenment #bloom #yogaeducation #yogastudy #yogatoursindia

Soorya namaskaar

 Surya Namaskar (सूर्यनमस्कार) Salute to the Sun or Sun Salutation, is a practice in yoga as exercise incorporating a sequence of some twelve gracefully linked asanas. The asana sequence originated in the Hatha Yoga tradition on 9th century in India.  The basic sequence involves moving from a standing position into Downward and Upward Dog poses and then back to the standing position, but many variations are possible. The founder of Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga, K. Pattabhi Jois, stated that "There is no Ashtanga yoga without Surya Namaskara, which is the ultimate salutation to the Sun god." . . #suryanamaskar #sun #sun_salutation #tradition #yoga #importance #yogapractice #yogalove #yogaguru #yogahabit

Adi yoga shivaya

 Lord Shiva is the original light of reality and the immortal life force. He is considered to be the supreme power in Hindu religion.  Lord Shiva, among the great deities of Hinduism, most personifies the practice of yoga. As Yogeshwar, the great lord of yoga, he rules over all aspects of yoga relative to body, mind and consciousness. Shiva is the lord of asana practice with 84 lakhs of asanas said to have derived from his movements. As Nataraj, the lord of the dance, his dance and gestures also reflect yoga postures. . . #aadiyogi #yogishiva #lordshiva #yogaudgam #yohaessence #yogalight #yogaeducation #yogaguru #yogamaster
