Armonia Yoga Studio And Meditation

The word Hatha derives from the union of the two Sanscritic words Ha and Tha which mean Sun and Moon.

It refers to the nadis (energy channels) of the body. The word ha refers to the channel of sun (pingala), whereas the word tha to the channel of moon (ida). It’s about the two different sides, parts of ourselves (Sun: fire, energy, power – Moon: water, concentration, tranquility).

But when these two words combine, then Hatha means dynamic, powerful, suggesting that it is a technique that demands strong will and self-discipline. It’ s the yoga that brings the union, the connection between body, spirit and soul. Harmony in all levels. Hatha Yoga is the most popular system in the Western world where its practice concerns mostly the mental and spiritual health of the practitioner.

History – Origin

Hatha yoga, also known as Hatha Vidya or “the science of Hatha”, is a system of yoga that was introduced by the Yogi Swatmarama, in the 15th century in.Swatmarama is also the creator of Hatha Yoga Pradipika, the most comprehensible text of Hatha Yoga and its techniques. The material for the creation of Pradipika derives from older sanscritic texts of yoga but also from the personal experience of Swatmarama. In that, Swatmarama introduces Hatha yoga as the way for someone to reach Raja Yoga, the Royal yoga in other words, as a preliminary stage of physical purification that prepares the body for the exercise of meditation. The asanas (body postures) and Pranayama (breath control) were used by the Hindu Yogis to train their body to hold out during the long meditations.
