Developed in India,
yoga is a spiritual practice that has been evolving for the last 5,000
years. The original yogis were reacting, in part, to India's ancient Vedic
religion, which emphasized rituals. The yogis wanted a direct spiritual
experience -- one on one -- not symbolic ritual. So they developed yoga.
In hatha yoga, for
example, postures and breathing exercises help purify the mind, body and
spirit so the yogi can attain union. Pranayama breathing exercises help
clear the nadis, or channels, that carry prana the universal life force,
allowing prana to flow freely. When the channels are clear and the last
block at the base of the spine has been opened, Kundalini rises through
the spine, through the central channel called the sushumna-nadi, and joins
the crown chakra. According to the tradition, the release of Kundalini
leads to enlightenment and union.
