| "Yoga
- Posture has a complete message for humanity. It has a message for the human
body. It has a message for the human mind,and it has also a message for the human
soul. Will Intelligent and capable youth come forth to carry this message to every
individual, not only in India but also in every other part of the world?"
Asana means posture. Asana
is the Sanskrit ( an Indian language ) word for different pattern of sitting i.e.
postures. Today Asanas / postures have another responsibility and importance from
the point of view of physical health. This site intends to give you a complete
information on asana and how it can benefit for our physical health. The
utility of Yoga asana must be explained properly. Today, a particular Asana is
explained by different teachers in different ways which lead to confusion. Therefore,
it is necessary that the practitioner must know why only a particular technique
is necessary. The headstand or sirsha-asana is perhaps the most well-known
Yoga posture. Its benefits are many and is fully deserving of all its notoriety.
Its physical and mental benefits derive both from emphasis on balance and the
body's inverted position. Before attempting the sirsha-asana beginners
to Yoga should wait until they have mastered some of the more basic postures.
