To clarify the essence of Hatha Yoga, it is derived from the combination of two bija mantras: “ha” (representing prana, the life force) and “tha” (representing the mind, or mental energy). Therefore, Hatha Yoga signifies the union of these two forces. When pranic and mental energies unite, a significant transformation occurs, leading to the awakening of higher consciousness. Contrary to popular belief, Hatha Yoga is not merely a series of physical exercises for flexibility and strength. Instead, it is a system of techniques designed to balance the lunar and solar energies within the body, fostering overall harmony and spiritual awakening.
