There is a very effective branch of yoga that few practice – Nyasa Yoga. Nyasa Yoga is an energetic yoga internal purification and cultivation practice. It is related to an entire host of yogic exercises for clearing your nadis of obstructions by invoking energies said to “divinize” a practitioner’s body. The practice diffuses energy into the body by associating mantras with every part of the body and the whole of it. For the best results you want to stay on each spot to sufficiently energize the prana of that region, and visualizing the targeted muscles helps open up the nadis quicker. When you recite a specific mantra from that location, you will have to linger and take a look at to feel a full vibration in the area. The result is significant progress towards cultivating a “deva body” (astral body double) that can leave the physical body at will, which is the goal of many yoga texts. Basically, Nyasa Yoga stimulates the body’s prana – which is your own latent Qi, spiritual energy, vital energy or life force – into moving and then fully opening your nadis. Through methods that involve mantra and concentration, you generate and then lead your prana from place to place to open quite a lot of sections of your body, and to create a “shield of divine protection” for the body as a whole. Along side other yoga exercises, Nyasa Yoga results in your channels being purified and a subtle body being generated. Many Nyasa and related yoga exercises are described that rarely appear in print.Inside are quite a lot of Nyasa Yoga practices as well as sectional body cultivation techniques from quite a few different traditions. There are also discussions on special (and once in a while secret) mantras and holy places on this planet that are excellent for cultivation. Special instructions on Mantrayana practice, Yoga Yajnavalkya exercises, how to open up your spinal channels, the real location of chakras in your body, what happens right through the twelve-year period of kundalini awakening, how to cultivate the five koshas, and methods to specifically cultivate feminine energy are all revealed as well as quite a few other rare and interesting topics. If you wanted just one internal energy (“nei-gong”) cultivation book for yoga practice then this can be a veritable treasure trove of cultivation techniques that even includes esoteric Taoist and Buddhist Vajrayana meditations that do not require special empowerments.
