Book Reviews of Surya Namaskara: A Technique of Solar Vitalization

Book Review: An Amazing Technique
Summary: 5 Stars

I have been doing yogic practices for a while now and I don't think I have ever experienced anything so powerful. In only three practices I am feeling the cleansing.

I have always seen this technique done but never took to it because of the way it was done, as a workout, and did not understand what its purpose was. Until I read this book. The explanation of this set of asanas and its cause, effects and benefits is wonderful. I like to practice yoga making it more of a workout of connection and breath/body awareness, that is why I use Wai Lana's videos as my instructor. Here Swami Satyananda Saraswati, takes us on a journey of peace and love, for your body and mind. Doing this practice with others videos made me feel helpless as they were moving at a speedy pace. Satyananda slows you down with his calming and highly educational tone. He guides you lovingly through this practice, the asanas, the meditations, the breathing, etc., so that you may achieve the full benefits of this series. If you own any of the other Bihar School of Yoga books that hosts this practice such as Asana, Pranayama, Mudra, Bandha - I suggest owning a copy of this as it is an indepth text on this program. It is wonderful... Enjoy.

Summary of Surya Namaskara: A Technique of Solar Vitalization

Surya Namskara,or salutation to the sun,is an important yogic practice which dates back to the ancient vedic period when the sun was worshipped as a powerful symbol of spiritual consciousness. From it's esoteric origins Surya Namskara has developed into a practice of twelve postures which weave together to generate prana(subtle energy),aiming towards the purification and rejuvenation of the practitioner.

This Book discusses in detail the full practice of Surya Namaskara, including the surya and bija mantras, points of concentration and extended guidelines to aid both practitioners and teachers. An in-depth physiological study of Surya Namskara supports it's present day use as a powerful therapeutic practice.
