SWARA YOGA - Based on Shiva Swarodaya Shashtra

“SWARALAB” - THE SWARAYOGA WORKSHOP - RETREAT

Swar Yog - The Science of Nasal Breathing

What is Swara Yoga (Swar Yog)?

The word SWARA means the sound of the breathing through nostril and the word YOGA comes from yuj which means joining or union…thus Swara Yoga is the science of nasal breathing that increases awareness in a systematic manner and may lead the practitioner to the ultimate adventure, the enlightenment. Enlightenment is a stateless state where mind is absent and integration of energy happens because of the absent of the fragmentary mind.

Swara yoga is an ancient science which originated as a dialogue between Shiva and Parvati. It is of tremendous significance to modern scientific minded people as there are 395 sutras in the original script of Shiva Swarodaya Shashtra and many of these sutras are very significant for the quantification of awareness for the modern man. This science remained a secret for thousands of year but now made available since last 20 Years by GURUJI PREM NIRMAL for the sincere seekers interested in learning this sacred science given by non other than Lord Shiva himself!

By learning and practicing Swara Yoga on daily basis you can realign your self to the cosmic rhythms that help to improve health, well-being and natural healing process of the body. It also helps to increase one’s awareness.

Swara Yoga is different from Pranayama. Unlike Pranayama it goes much deeper through systematic study of breath that increases awareness about the nostril, the prevailing element in a moment ij that particular nostril and it also associates this awareness with that of thithi (the degree of Moon) the time of the day etc.

What are the advantages of learning Swara Yoga?

The Swara Yoga practices are basically to increase one's awareness and understanding of natural governing forces of life. It goes deeper into understanding governing ELEMENTS in each moment in a particular nostril which in turn decides our success in any thing that we do in that moment. As awareness deepens, it helps us to move from "samana" (mindfulness awareness) awareness to "unmana" (Beyond mind awareness) awareness. The most exciting aspect of Swara Yoga is that by observation of dominant nostril and the prevailing element in that nostril one can know a lot about the secrets of success in that moment and by learning to adjust the nostril and the element one can maneuver oneself to success in any activity at hand.

One of the simplest Swara Sadhana is to check the nostril while waking up. Turn to the dominant side and get up. Put your dominant nostril side foot first on the ground and start you day with full awareness of the moment. By doing so you align yourself with natural rhythm of the day and your entire day will be successful!

Other Advantage of Swara Yoga……

1. You learn to do right thing at right time.

2. You can bring balance & order in your life.

3. You learn to be relaxed & conscious of own state of being before starting an activity.

4. You learn to live in constant awareness of your inner & outer world.
