The word Asana literally means a posture. Out of the innumerable asanas a body can assume, 84 have been identified as Yogasanas, through which one can transform the body and mind into a possibility for ultimate well-being. Yogasanas are not exercises, but rather very subtle processes to manipulate one’s energy in a particular direction.
Asanas are not about fitness, flexibility, or building muscle. If you know how to hold your body, you can experience the whole cosmos within yourself. This is yoga. – Sadhguru
By consciously forming the body into a certain posture, one creates a conducive passage for energy flow that can elevate one’s consciousness. In an untrained state, the human body is a constant manifestation of various levels of compulsiveness.
Yogasanas are a way of aligning the inner system and adjusting it to the celestial geometry, thereby becoming in sync with the existence and naturally achieving a chemistry of healthfulness, joyfulness, blissfulness, and above all balance.
