Shadow Yoga
The name Shadow
Yoga is derived from the 6th chapter of the ancient tantrik treatise - 'The
Shiva-Svarodaya' (the birth of the breath of life revealed by the god Shiva).
This chapter, entitled 'Yoga of the Shadow Man', deals with the intricate
manifestations of the shadow and their significance both inside and outside the
human organism. According to Hatha Yogic anatomy the body is composed of three
discrete bodies and five sheaths, (coverings or shadows). The practice of Hatha
Yoga has evolved with the purpose of dissolving these shadows.The teaching of the Shadow School is based upon the ancient Hatha Yogic texts, which state that all fixed forms should be designed to develop the practice of freestyle. Freestyle is a necessary step in the cultivation of longevity and enlightenment.
