What is Yoga’s Symbols?

Tuesday, March 17th, 2009 | Understand Yoga with No Comments »

Yoga’s Symbols is very mystery things in the world.

There is extensive use of symbols in yoga. It is said that in ancient times the rishis, holy men, observed the animals, birds, and other creatures, and developed the asanas, postures, from their movements. Many asanas are named after animals, such as simhasana, the lion posture, vatayanasana, the horse posture, bakasana, the crane posture, matsyasana, the fish posture, and shalabhasana, the locust posture. Others are named after plants, such as padmasana, the lotus posture, or the sun, suryasana, the salute to the sun.


In the geography of the subtle body, complex symbolism is used to describe the cakras, energy vortices. These are symbolised as lotuses and each cakra has a certain number of petals, a characteristic colour, its own geometric shape, and its own presiding deity. Sanskrit letters are inscribed on the petals of the lotuses, symbolising cosmic energy in the form of the revealed word. Large paintings of the cakras with all their symbols may be found on the walls of yoga ashrams. The spine is yogadanda, the staff of God, and up this comes the kundalini, the serpent power coiled at the base of the spine. Symbolism of the sun and moon is used for the major nadis, channels for prana to flow, for the upper and lower parts of the body, and in the name Hatha Yoga (ha, sun, tha, moon).

The different yoga schools use symbols that appertain more directly to the aspect of yoga with which they are concerned. Pictures of gurus are placed in ashrams as well as images of various Hindu gods and goddesses. The symbol OM is widely applied as are different mandalas, complex geometric designs filled with symbolism, such as the sri-yantra.

I just like Yoga’s Symbols very much.
