In its best known form, the word Yoga Hatha Yoga has come to associate with the last of these systems is.

Yoga
Asana and pranayama
Let's take a detailed look at the two most important components of Hatha yoga asana and pranayama to say.
a) Asana:
Asana means an attitude of acquisition and maintenance, until it allows the body. Asana, if properly done according to the above rules, are enormous physical and psychological benefits. Asana areregarded as the forerunner of Pranayama. Through the practice of asana is a balance between opposing principles in the body and psyche. It also helps get rid of the inertia. Asana Benefits are improved with more IT maintenance. Asana should be firm, stable and pleasant. Here is a summary of the general rules for this asana is to follow.
Summary:
1. Normal breathing
2. Targeted Stretching
3. Stable and comfortable posture (sukham sthiramasanam)
4. Minimal effort (shaithilyam Prayatnay)
5. No comparison or competition with other
6. No action or pull quickly. Maintain a slow and steady rhythm.
Each asana has updated its advantages and common benefits, such as stability, flexibility, improved hormone secretion, and rejuvenated. There is a misconception that an asana (Yoga Stretch) is useful to have a difficult time being. Many of the easiest asanas make the most commonThe benefits of yoga to their fullest. Moreover, the beauty of yoga is the fact that in the not-so-perfect-level, most of the benefits are still available. This means that even a beginner can benefit from yoga as much as an expert.
In their quest to find a solution to mind the condition of the human body and founder of Yoga found the answer in a part of their nature. They watched the birds and animals to get rid of stretch your body in a special way forInertia and malaise. Based on these observations, yoga exercises have created and named after the birds or animals or fish, pieces are inspired. For example, Matsyasana (representing fish) makarasana (crocodile pose), shalabhasana (Locust Pose), Bhujangasana (Cobra), marjarasana (cat pose), Mayurasana (peacock pose), vrischikasana (scorpion pose), Gomukhasana (cow in the mouth) are parvatasana (mountain pose), vrikshasana (tree), etc.
Many of the asanas can bebroadly categorized by the type of pressure on the abdomen. Most preventive Asana Asana pressure placed under pressure as a positive effect on the stomach as grinding Pashchimatanasana, Yogamudra (yoga) icon) Hastapadasana hands and feet (set) Pavanmuktasana Wind (free float, etc. The backward bending asana Asana negative pressure, as pressure to remove the belly as Dhanurasana (bow pose), Bhujangasana (Cobra), Naukasana(Boat pose), etc. Both types of asanas give excellent stretch back and belly and strengthen these two institutions. The increased exchange between positive and negative pressure in the same area of the body and stimulates circulation in the area. The muscle group in use becomes more oxygen and blood through the pressure of the post. For example, in Yogamudra (Symbol of Yoga), the abdominal pressure is positive by the Kundalini is awakened. Hastapadasana updates allThe nerves in the back of the legs and back. As a result you will feel revitalized. Vakrasana is a good massage of the pancreas and liver and is recommended for diabetics.
2. Pranayama
Practicing Pranayama is one way to get rid of mental and physical illnesses. Pranayama means controlled and prolonged duration of breath. Prana means breath. It also means life force. Ayama means of control or stretching. Just like a pendulum requires twice and hold to return to its original position, the fumes of pranayama are two times longer than the inhalations. The main purpose of pranayama is to bring mental stability and retention need to breathe through taxes. Breathing is a function of the autonomic nervous system. With the merger of the involuntary process of breathing under the control of the mind, the scope has expanded. Pranayama is a bridge between Bahiranga (exoteric) and Yoga Antaranga (introspective or esoteric)Yoga. A body that has remained stable through the asanas and was purified from Kriya (purification procedures), were prepared for Pranayama. On the other hand Pranayama prepares the mind and body and practice of spiritual meditation of yoga, as Dhyana, Dharana and Samadhi. On the physical level, the practice of Pranayama increases the oxygen in the blood, then refreshes and rejuvenates the brain and nerves. Here are some physical benefits of Pranayama.
a. lung, breast, membranestronger and healthier.
b. Lung capacity is increased.
c. pressure produces a slowly evolving form of massage to all the organs in the abdominal cavity.
d. It cleans the blood, increasing the blood's ability to absorb more oxygen.
e. brain functions better with more oxygen in the blood.
f. improve neuromuscular coordination.
g. body is thin and light skin.
There are 8 main Ujjayi Pranayama is, Suryabhedan, Sitkari, Shital, Bhastrika, Bhramari, Murchha,Plavina. Among these is the most popular Ujjayi Pranayama. Pranayama consists of 4 parts in this order:
1) puraka (inhalation Controlled)
2) Abhyantara Kumbhaka (holding breath)
3) rechaka (expiration Controlled)
4) Bahya exhale Kumbhaka (Holding).
The ratio of these parts to each other is usually 1:4:2:4 with few exceptions. Patanjali Yogasutra does this relationship along with many other writings. For the purposes of general welfare,Practice the first three parts is sufficient. A spiritual practitioner in general practice, all four parties, including the last word Bahya Kumbhaka. This doctor is not much more than repetition of someone who is for the general health and wellbeing. Of the four parts of Pranayama is the Kumbhaka Abhyantara, identified primarily with the pranayama. There is another Kumbhaka that occurs spontaneously and is called Keval Kumbhaka.
Bandha (locks) are very importantfor the practice of Pranayama. Mulabandha (closure of the anus), Jalandharbandha (closing of the throat or jugular) Udiyanabandha (locking in the abdomen or diaphragm) and Jivhabandha (block of the tongue) are the four blocks that are made during the Pranayama. be made depending on the purpose of pranayama (mental health or general), locks. Mulabandha, Jalandharbandha Udiyanabandha Bandha and were held jointly by anyone. Jivhabandha is binding only if made for spiritualPurpose.
Features of Yoga
Let's take a look at some of the key features of yoga.
1) Yoga is not exercise.
To understand the concept of a yoga should be remembered that the positions in yoga are not physically, but to achieve and maintain the trails. You can practice yoga described in terms of whether yoga or yoga. The acquisition of a position of stretching muscles and then maintaining thisrate as long as it allows the body position, which is what yoga stretches. Yoga requires very smooth and controlled movements and a slow constant. To achieve this goal, we must have total concentration of mind, and yoga. The movements of yoga are smooth, slow and controlled. Comparison with others is strongly discouraged. Am I doing something beyond the capacity only out of competition usually results in harm to the body and therefore is strongly discouraged. BreatheYoga exercises will remain stable, unlike many aerobics. Yoga is also in contrast with bodybuilding exercises are isometric isotonic isotonic natural range in A, the length of the muscle increases, while the tone remains the same isometric exercises in which the muscle length remains the same, contrary to the sound changes. In extending isotonic stretches the body in a certain way and argued that the case for some time.
2) longer service intervals and fewer repetitions (asthe ability of the body).
The benefits of Yoga are increasingly stretched with the maintenance of a body. The more the better maintenance of effects. However, you can not force, it may take more time in the maintenance of the trail from the body. Each location is convenient and stable (Sthiram sukham Asanam). Sthiram means stable. Sukham half pleasant and Asanam: a posture or position. The right position for you is that I keep in your body (sthiram) and remainsthe pleasant and comfortable for you (sukham) is. At a time when a piece needs unbearable and uncomfortable and the body begins to vibrate, man, get out of this place very slowly, smooth and controlled. It 's more repetitions and shorter maintenance intervals for a beginner. With fewer practice reps than the extended service. After that Yoga should feel comfortable and fresh and nothing else. If you feel tired or sleepy orPart of the body hurts, it just means that you tried on your ability.
2) Trust your body. Apply a minimum of effort:
With the practice of yoga, you learn to trust the ability of your body, the efforts of the progress in terms of flexibility, without conscience. As long as the goal in mind and the body is only valid for its current capacity, the flexibility to develop for themselves. You just concentrate on breathing represented on the current state of the body and enjoy theRepresenting provided peace of mind. "Prayatnay Shaithilyam 'means a minimum of effort. Although there is an ideal situation described above and to any desired Asana, you're not forced into the realization of an ideal location. Practicing yoga is done with the confidence that flexibility is acquired by a continuous and regular. Is there a message here, and that trust in strangers. This message, along with the improvement of endocrine function, improved muscle tone, calm mind and increases positiveOutlook may have a substantial benefit to the recovery from an illness.
3) targeted stretching:
The ability to lengthen or pressure, a group of muscles while relaxing the rest of the body as a concentrated stretch. For example, if a particular Asana is the stretching of the stomach, as the most important muscle group (muscles station), then relaxed the rest of the body, while the stomach is stretched or compressed based. It should avoid unnecessary muscles, which willbe relaxed. First, it is difficult to follow, but it will be easier with practice. This habit of differentiating between different muscles for the pressure is very useful in other areas of life. It allows you to relax more when driving during peak hours. Meanwhile, activities of daily living, makes you aware of unnecessary tension in various parts of the body. They are alert, even when talking with someone or brushing your teeth or when in a jamJam.

ultimate goal of yoga is the concentration in the possibility of self-determination. Yuja means to combine or merge. A combination of Atma and Parmatma is the fusion of body and mind. Yoga is a way of life. This is a total integration. According to Patanjali(Founder of Yoga), yoga postures to define two things, a stable and comfortable posture and Anantha Samapatti. Therefore, one can not separate the body language of meditation. In fact, a body that is flexible and stable, through the practice of the various positions a good basis for the final state of the transcendental mind (Samadhi) is. Kriya (cleansing processes) to purify the body. Mudra Bandha and bring the necessary stability of the mind and focus first onrespiration (pranadharana) and then God (Ishwarpranidhana). At first the mind wanders a lot and that's ok You should let dangle. Later, he should count his breaths, the air flow inside and the outside to look through the air. (Pranadharna). This will allow him to focus more on themselves (sakshibhavana). In the beginning it will be difficult to concentrate because your posture is not so stable. But with practice it becomes better and better. For thisto deliberately remove the mind from body posture and concentrate on breathing (pranadharana).

Origin and philosophy of yoga:
Ashtangayoga
Among the many proponents of yoga, Patanjali (2nd century BC) is the most famous and revered of all yoga and is well accepted as the founder. His bookShripatanjali Darshan, which is a collection of hymns (also known as the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali) Therapy was held in high regard by experts and yoga and is known as one of the most respected reference work (a workbook for practice) up. Patanjali's Yoga is called Patanjali (Patanjali) is a yoga and is considered Rajayoga, exalted, which means that the real Yoga or the highest, because it is to perform spiritual practices thatLiberation (Moksha). Rajayoga is part of the Sankhya philosophy and is known for Kundalini (complete opening of the chakras, when reached, the state of transcendental meditation) and make the results in complete spiritual enlightenment if practiced regularly.
Patanjalayoga Ashtangayoga called because it has size 8 or 8 members. Ashta means eight thirty Anga size or link in Sanskrit. Yama (rules of social life), Niyama (rules for personal development), asana (yogaPosition), pranayama (breathing prolonged and controlled), Pratyahara (sense), Dharana restricted (a subject), Dhyana (continued experience of meditation), Samadhi (transcendental state in which there is only one pure essence of existence) are the 8 members Ashtangayoga. The first four dimensions make it the exoteric (Bahiranga) Part Ashtangayoga over the past four dimensions make the esoteric (Antaranga) Part Ashtangayoga. From 8 Ashtangayoga arts,Asana and Pranayama are the only two members, which are generally for the term in its most popular form of yoga.
Hatha Yoga
In the 15th century AD, founded Yogi Swatmarama one of the six systems of yoga called Hatha Yoga. Although the term Hatha in Sanskrit means more powerful, Hatha Yoga is not about to Hatha but the balance between the two principles of the body. Ha and Tha are essentially symbols. He means Surya (sun). Tha means Chandra (Moon). Right nostril(Pingala) is the Surya Nadi, while the left nostril (Ida), the Chandra Nadi. Just as the sun and moon balance of the life cycle of the world, the balance between the two nostrils of the life cycle of the body. Nadi is a channel through which flows the vital energy. Hatha Yoga helps balance this with the correction of functional disorders of the body and the door to keep the peace of mind. Hathayogapradipika is the standard textbook on Hatha Yoga by Yogi Swatmarama written. Hatha Yoga Patanjali acceptsas standard. Although there is a fully independent school of philosophy on his own, is essentially based on the philosophy of Rajayoga Yogasutra according to Patanjali explained.
In fact, every school of philosophy culminates in Rajayoga because the goal of every school is the same as peace and eternal happiness Rajayoga to gain.
Hatha Yoga consists of
a. Asana (postures or poses such as mountain ranges, Cobra)
b. Pranayama (breath controlTechniques such as Ujjayi, Anuloma Viloma)
c. Kriya (purification processes as Kapalabhati)
d. Mudra and Bandha (locks and symbol as Udiyana Bandha Bandha Jivha, Simhamudra)
As Hatha Yoga, Asana, Pranayama, Kriya, Mudra and Bandha are stepping stones to reach the final effect Rajayoga psycho-spiritual. They create the necessary foundation of stable and calm mind and body for Rajayoga. However, there are subtle differences between Patanjali Yoga and Hatha Yoga.Patanjali much emphasis on psychological and spiritual benefits of yoga as the physical aspects and current techniques of asana and pranayama. His asana and pranayama are doing a lot simpler and easier than in Hatha Yoga. For this, he recommends a minimum of effort (Prayatnay Shaithilyam) and maintaining a steady pace and rhythm and a stable, comfortable posture. Patanjali Yogasutra asana and pranayama only discuss in Chapter Kriyayoga (part of Sadhana Pada) as a means to achieve physical and mental health. On the other hand, the focus of Hatha Yoga is more about the techniques of asana, pranayama, kriya, mudra and bandha.
Philosophy of Yogasutra:
Yogasutra Sutras of Patanjali consisting of 195 and 4 Pada (sections or chapters): Samadhi Pada, Sadhana Pada, Vibhuti Pada and Kaivalya Pada. Kriyayoga, the chapter on the practice of yoga is a part of Sadhana Pada (section on opportunities for study and practice of> Yoga). Kriyayoga asana and pranayama is discussed. physical part of yoga. Yogasutra Just to get an idea of the philosophy of Patanjali, here are some thoughts from Samadhi Pada Sadhana Pada and:
Patanjali, the aim of yoga is later) reach samadhi (transcendental state in which last is the meaning of pure existence and nothing else. Yoga is the union of spirit and body. It 's a calm river, which flows down from theslant bed without his efforts. Sun Yoga is more than an exercise. To focus your thoughts is the greatest advantage of yoga. Yoga is nothing but self-learning. The purpose of yoga is self-conscious. Yoga teaches us to be closer to nature and live a healthy life. You need determination and belief in yoga.
Tapaswadhyayeshwarpranidhanani Kriyayogah
Tapas (asceticism), Swadhyaya (Read the scriptures)Ishwarpranidhana. Tapa is awake and active body glowing with health. Swadhyaya is to work continuously to refine the mind. To use these sadhana eliminate errors of human nature. There are five klesha (evil tendencies) as avidya (ignorance), Asmita (ego), Rag (attraction, affection), Dwesha (hate) and abhinivesh (self persistence, stubbornness). These five vrittis disappears from Dhyana.
Yogaschittavrittinirodhah. The practice of yoga, all functionalModifications of the mind permanently.
Control of your mind is what yoga is. We must engage the mind in asanas. Asana is a tool for yoga. Postures, maintenance and shift of asanas are done according to their abilities. Retention is most desirable that the repetition. Meditation can not be separated from yoga.
Prayatne Shaithilyam Anantha Samapatti. Meanwhile Yogasana (yoga postures), two things must be considered. Ais to be relaxed mentally and physically. The second is Anantha Samapatti. E 'to merge with something infinite. Patanjali says that all good things happen when you stop trying. It has become a Ishwara, let go with your control and forget that detail. Yoga posture should be a life path.
Yoga apakarot chitasya malam, malam vachanam Paden, cha yo sharirasya vaidyaken apakarot. He speaks of reading aloud a Pada (verse improveda poem) and a doctor treats diseases of the body. Similarly, healing and yoga cleans a sick mind.
After Samadhipada, all types of mental and physical problems such as sickness, inertia, doubt and suspicion, disobedience, confusion, temptation, unhealthy thoughts of the changes of Chitta (mind) are. Consequences of these changes uncomfortable, unsteadiness, tremors and disturbances of inhalations and exhalations are. Patanjali says that the totalThe concentration and perseverance and regular practice of yoga, you can get rid of all these problems.
Ishwarpranidhanadva But it is very difficult for someone, there is another way to achieve overall health and peace and that is passed to God (Ishwarpranidhanadva). After Samadhi Pada, if you do not have any knowledge of surrendering completely to God and you will get the knowledge.
