Hatha Yog only leads us to Raj yog

   Hatha Yog is the solace for people suffering and it is the foundation (tortoise) for Yog Sadhaks

   For success in Yog keep the accomplishments/practises a secret, practise become useless once it is shared with other’s

   Yog should be practised alone, free from all other thoughts and tensions

   Over eating, over exertion, talkativeness, adhernce to rules, public contact, fickleness of mind destroy yog

   Enthusiasm, courage, patience, knowledge of the essence, determination, avoiding public contact is good for yog

   Asan is the first limb of Yog

   Asan bring mental and physical stability, health, lightness in the body

   Swastikasan-

   Gomukhasan-

   Veerasan- Like Ardha Padmasan

   Kurmasan- Like vajrasan, feet outside and heels inside (pressing anus)

   Kukkutasan-

   Uttankurmasan- both hands on the neck in kurmasan and lie down on the back like a tortoise

   Dhanurasan- Hold the toes and pull them towards the ears

   Matsyendrasan- Lights the digestiv fire, Destroys the diseases, awakens the kundalini, Stabilises the Moon Element

   Shavasan- removes fatigue and gives mental peace

   Siddhasan, Padmasan, Singhasan, Bhadrasan are four imprtant asan. Siddhasan is the most important asan among four mentioned.

   Siddhasan-

Chin to chest, Senses controlled, gaze at the eyebrow centre, become stable, Siddhasan opens the door to Moksha.

Just like Mita-ahar is the best Yama and Ahimsa is the best Niyama, Siddhasan is the best asana.

It purifies the 72000 Nadis.

Sadhak who regularly concentrate upon the Soul, Eats Mit-ahar and practises Siddhasan for 12 years achieve the Nishpatti avastha (sloka 4:76).

When the Prana vayu is under control and kevala kumbaka is acheieved then unmani-kala come on its own.

When Siddhasan is achieved through determination the three bandhas(3:75) happen on its own.

There is no other asan like siddhasan, no ther kumbaka like kevala kumbaka, no other mudra like khechari(3:32, 4:43) mudra, no other laya(4:43) like naad(4:65).

   Padmasan- Hands like baddha padmasan, Chin to chest, Gaze at the nose tip, destroyer of all diseases.

2. Chin to chest, Hands in dhyana mudra, slowly raise the prana upwards, gazing at the nose tip, tounge like basic khechari mudra.

Destroyer of all diseases.

3. After inhalation apply chin lock and mulabandh, uniting the apna and Prana, concentrate upon param bhrama, the sadhak due to the flow of energy experiences the knowledge which cannot be compared to anything else.

Sadhak who holds the breath inside in padmasan is mukta.

   Singhasan- Heels press below the gonads, spread the fingers on the knees and gaze at the nose tip, with mouth wide open. Makes the performance of three bandhas simple.

   Bhadrasan-Both heels kept below the gonads, back side of seevni, hold the toes of both feet. It is the destroyer of all diseases.

   Post asan practise once you feel energised, practise nadi shuddhi and mudras.

   Post the practise of kumbaka and mudra, practise the Nada-anusandhan

   Those who adopt bhramacharya, mit-ahar, Sacrifise(tyagi) and surrender himself to Yog completely, achieves siddhi in One Year.
