  • SURYA NAMASKAR RITUAL

    Surya Namaskar is the Sanskrit term for twelve yoga asanas, often known as a Sun Salutation. It is a well-known yoga practice that has been integrated into various systems, including Hatha, Vinyasa, and Ashtanga. The phrase is derived from two Sanskrit roots: Surya meaning "sun" and namaskar meaning "greetings" or "salutations".

  • CHANDRA NAMASKAR RITUAL

    A sequence that reveres and praises the power of the moon. The name is derived from the Sanskrit words "Chandra," meaning "moon," and "Namaskar," which means "salutation." Although less well-known than the Surya Namaskar practice, they complement each other nicely by embracing the opposite, interrelated energies.
