6. Chandra Yogasana

In Himalayan regions, the practice of Chandra Yogasana is very popular with the guidance of a perfect Jupiter. This system concentrates on habitual mudras, asanas, paranayamas, bandhas, breathing exercises and meditation. This is slightly different from the Surya Namaskara which is an attitudinal approach and application of technique with due adoration of the deity Chandra with chanting mantras^[1]. Chandra Yoga congregates on the deserted spiritual and introspective aspects of the yogic science and open up the contender to follow the subtle and spiritually integrated practices. This system becomes reflective and placid which do not stipulate any previous yogic experience. The differentiating aspect of Chandra Yoga is the methodologies adopted for the strong integration of total organisms, boosting up the inner spirit (prana) in a holistic manner. This system specifically focused on the physical balancing of the prana within the body and provide relaxation to stretch ligaments, tendons and muscles. The spiritual qualities are getting harnessed and physical energy channels of the aspirant gets free flow so as to awaken the whole organism. The responsibility rests on the aspirants to keep the traditional concepts of yoga in the name of moon as the glimpses of our early civilization in the Vedic period.
