Traditional Tantric Hatha Yoga
These days there are many new innovations within the field of Yoga and although innovation has its place, Yoga con Sentido wants to come back to the tradition, to the real science of YOGA...
TANTRA HATHA YOGA IT IS A COMPLETE PRACTICE, considering aspects of YOGA, TANTRA and AYURVEDA, to truly experience evolution on all levels of our being.
Tantra Hatha Yoga are teachings that have been transmitted from teacher to student in an unbroken thread for thousands of years from the ancient lineage of the Himalayan Masters and the tantric Hatha Yogis who have kept the flames of true Sadhana (practice) burning since ancient times.
In this practice the worldview of Sri Vidya Tantra is applied:
TANTRA: Tantra is the science of energy management, which is a conversation around prana and, more specifically, how to collect, contain and direct it. Expand beyond our limits (Tan = lengthen, stretch or accelerate and Tra = beyond limits, such as karma and circumstances. Tra is also to protect).
HATHA YOGA: The goal is to move the energy and mind into one, Sushumna, right in the center of the spine.
HA refers to PINGALA Nadi; the SOLAR stream of energy that runs along the right side of the column. Provides heat and light, connected to the body and energy. It is active, electric, radiant, stimulating and full of vitality. Pranic Channel
THA refers to the current of energy that runs along the left side of the spine and is associated with IDA Nadi. It is the LUNAR current, connected to the Mind. It is cool and dark like the moon. Its expressions are consciousness, psychic senses, concentration, mental activities, intuition, and magnetism. Chitta or Consciousness Channel
