    If you're looking for a simple, enjoyable way to start your day that provides a diverse range of health

    benefits, consider practicing Surya Namaskar. Surya Namaskar is a special sequence of yoga

    postures and chants that together comprise the traditional Sun Salutation.Surya Namaskarhas itsorigins in Hindu worship of the solar deity, and it has been practiced in India for thousands of years.

    There are twelve poses in the Surya Namaskar series, and a full round consists of performing two

    sets of this series.

    Whether you regularly practice yoga or not, you can enjoy the health benefits of Surya Namaskar.

    Performed correctly, it is a completely safe set of yoga poses that will not cause strain or injury. You

    will experience health benefits by practicing the Sun Salutation just once daily, but you can also

    practice the series of poses as often as you like morning, noon or night.

    Once you become familiar with Surya Namaskar and how wonderful it makes you feel, you will

    probably find yourself drawn to performing it multiple times throughout the day, including just before

    bedtime. When practiced in the morning, Surya Namaskar relieves stiffness, energizes the body andrefreshes the mind. During the day, it is a rejuvenating alterative to caffeine, and at night, Surya

    Namaskar can help you relax and get a good night's sleep.

    In addition to these physical benefits,Surya Namaskarpractice stimulates and conditions virtually every system in the body.It is good for the heart and stimulates the cardiovascular system. It oxygenates the blood and helps strengthen the heart.Surya Namaskar is good for the digestive system and the nervous system. It stimulates the lymphatic system and supportsrespiratory system health, as well.

    Practicing Surya Namaskar also benefits the Endocrine system and enables the various endocrinal glands to function

    properly. These include the thyroid, parathyroid and pituitary glands as well as the adrenal gland, testes and ovaries.

    Like most forms of exercise, Surya Namaskar provides mental benefits to regular practitioners. You will feel wonderful after

    performing the Sun Salutation. It is relaxing and rejuvenating, and tension, stress and anxiety melt away as you perform

    Surya Namaskar.

    Surya Namaskar is an excellent alternative to caffeine and other stimulants. If you suffer from insomnia or sleep

    disturbances, you will find practicing Surya Namaskar aids in helping you fall asleep without the need for depressants.

    With regular practice, Surya Namaskar is an excellent way to manage stress and alleviate depression. You will expend a

    tremendous amount of energy as you move through the two sets of poses. Surya Namaskar teaches you to concentrate,

    and learning to achieve the poses is incredibly gratifying.

    SURYA NAMASKAR, THE 11000 YEAR OLD VEDIC SUN SALUTATION - CAPT AJIT VADAKAYIL

    This post is the most valuable piece on Surya Namaskar you will find in any language

    other that Sanskrit.

    Thousands of pretenders have flooded book store shelves and the Internet with "ready

    made" Surya namaskar takes-- all bull.

    First of all SURYA NAMASKAR is not a physical exercise. It is something much more

    profound, which needs deep understanding of Sanskrit Vedic literature and Sanatana

    Dharma.

    It is a complete Sadhana, inclusive of Yogasana ( exercise ) , Mantra ( sound longitudinal

    waves ) , Pranayama ( breathing ) and Chakra meditation ( scalar energy vortex

    transceiver ) .

    Surya Namaskar was devised as Yoga 7000 years ago, to facilitateLYMPH DRAINAGEin an

    amazing manner. This was properly understood by modern science only 70 years go. Our

    lymphatic system has vessels just like our circulatory system, but does not have a pump (whereas the

    circulatory system has the heart). In order to clear the lymph (the clear extracellular fluid that is

    collected by the lyphatic vessels and filtered by the lymph nodes), the lymphatic system must be pumped

    manually. The lymph movement relys on contraction of smooth muscle tissue lining the walls of lymph

    vessels (peristalsis). Movement of skeletal muscles is also important for driving lymph along the systems

    network of vessels to lymph nodes and from these to lymph ducts where the lymph tissue joins

    cardiovascular circulation. Women who do Surya Namaskar do NOT get breast cancer.

    Surya Namaskar resonates the Pineal gland and DNA-- to speed up your chakras, andenlarge your aura-- I will get to the technical points later.,

    I learnt Surya Namaskar at the age of 7, taught to me by the Kalari gurikkal. Many years

    later, at my school we did Surya Namaskar in a group. It was compulsory.

    To arouse your curiosity I will put a video, which just shows what it is prima facie. It will

    NOT explain anything else-- just the base movement.

    It might appear to be a good physical stretch exercise to loosen up-- to a layman . What

    you must understand is that the man is facing the sun at dawn, on an empty stomach.

    Now let me introducebreathing. Breathing does magic . It must be startedand stopped at the right time. You must be AWARE of the breathing process.Basically, inhale when stretching and exhale whenbending.

    Let me paste some pictures.

    Chakras are focal points where psychic forces and bodily functions interact with each other.

    They are transceivers of SCALAR energy. Scalar waves operate in a non-linear time dimension which is

    hyperspace, at any speed from zero to infinity, as they are not limited to the speed of light. When you

    develop cosmic consciousness, the chakras vortex will extend further from his body. These chakras

    cannot be seen by the sight sense of the common man. Each of these 7 chakras are associated with a

    specific colour, organ, gland, mantra and frequency. Chakras can send out information carrying soliton

    waves, which do not attenuate. The Indian sage has exploded into a space of consciousness in which

    inner awareness is spontaneous. Cosmic consciousness is an intellectual enlightenment or illumination,

    an indescribable state of moral and intellectual elevation, a feeling of amazing bliss. Gazing at the sun or

    stars is an enlightening practice that fills up the soul. The real nervous system operates by means of

    synaptic messages. The virtual one operates by means of the quantum effect of tunneling (particles

    passing through an energy barrier that classically they should not be able to climb). The real one is

    driven by classical laws, the virtual one by quantum laws. Consciousness is therefore driven by quantum

    laws. Remember, chakras dictate all physical, mental, emotional and spiritual processes that take place

    in your body. Every chakra is a transmitter cum receiver antenna. As per Vedanta we are essentially

    holographic energy beings existing in a state of resonance with the scalar field of the cosmos

    wind at dawn, charging the earths magnetic field, stimulates the pineal gland. This is the best time to

    meditate , chant and sun gaze. At dawn, the negatively charged pineal and the positively charged

    pituitary combine their essences to create a "light in the head". Pranayama floods the Pineal gland with

    oxygen, to make it resonate. The reddish grey pineal gland is located in the geometric center of the brain.

    The nerves that serve the pineal gland don't originate in the brain but in the sympathetic nervous system.

    This gland can be activated by activated by sunlight, and also by sound resonance. It controls the various

    biorhythms of the body. It can discern negative energies, based on perception of vibrating energies around

    you. When the pineal gland does not receive sunlight, it secretes Melatonin, which induces sleep,

    increases blood sugar, craze for food, leading to obesity, fears and anxiety.The pineal gland is a

    photosensitive organ and thus an important timekeeper for the human body. The pineal gland produces

    PINOLINE, ( 6-methoxy-tetra-dydro-beta carboline, or 6-MeO-THBC ) . Pinoline also resonates with the

    very pulse of life 7.83 Hertz, the pulse the DNA uses to replicate, and which has been measured to be

    emitted from the brains and hands of all successful healers, regardless of belief or faith. Pinoline enablesthe threshold levels of DMT to become active in the brain . DMT with Pinoline increases brain activation

    multi fold.

    Pineal activation awakens normally latent neural pathways. Nerve fibers leave the pineal and make

    synaptic connections with other brain sites through traditional nerve-to-nerve connections, not just

    through endocrine secretions. EASTERN VEDIC RISHIS MYSTICS HAD THE ABILITY TO GO ON EITHER SIDE

    OF THE NARROW BAND OF 5 HUMAN SENSES, WITH A KING SIZED RESONATING PINEAL GLAND. THEY

    COULD TRANSCEND THE SENSES AND LIMITATION OF SPACE-TIME. There is a lot we knew 10000 years

    ago , but has been lost to this this 21st century-- right? You cant observe the quantum world without

    your Pineal gland -- the other 5 senses have too narrow bandwidths. Quantum physics has showed the

    ancient Indian Yogis were NOT mere dreamers of cosmic consciousness, where our bodies, our brain and

    its mind, as inextricably joined with other matter and the mega dipole of universe . There is indeed a

    connection between consciousness and tangled state quantum phenomena. They firmly believed that

    the invisible below the quantum screen gives rise to the visible. While Newton tries to explain the

    invisible through the visible. There is no room for consciousness or morphogenetic fields in the

    dictionaryof Darwin.

    12 strand DNAthe most complicated supercomputer on this planet. The king Mantra OM or AUM is

    NOT the limiting factor. DNAis a superconductor that stores light at body temperature, and can

    create magnetic wormholes in ZPF .. Microtubules and axional membranes are also hollow cylinders.

    Mantras are Scalar energy based sounds which resonate in the Zero Point Field Aakashik hyperspace.

    ---Mantras resonate your pineal gland and reprogramme your DNA. The human DNA can produce

    longitudinal scalar waves. Mantras vibrations on DNA , chakras and pineal gland purifies and raises

    human consciousness. Mantras centres your mind ( effect on subconscious ) and slows down your

    breathing. Mantras increase your Auras as seen by Kirlean photographydue to the effect on

    symphathetic and para sympathetic nervous systems.---Mantra chanting must be done with intent, to

    make it more powerful. This is about consciousness again.

    Pranayamawhere you exhale twice as long as inhaleIS MORE ABOUT DUMPING OLD

    EXPERIENCES, RATHER THAN MERE OXYGENATION OF BLOOD. Breathe in the new , breathe out the old.

    Pranayamainhale and exhale with awarenesslong exhales with the sound of mmmm. Humming

    boosts level of nitric oxidethis in turn ups the oxygen intake by 98%, the biggest secret . Ordinary

    breath is a mere 4%. 70% of toxins in your body are released by exhalationrest by sweat, defecation

    and urinesurprised? The main purpose of respiration is to provide oxygen to the cells at a rate

    adequate to satisfy their metabolic needs. This involves transport of oxygen from the lung to the tissues

    by means of the circulation of blood. The power of breathing lies in its relationship with your energy

    source. The mind is intimately connected to your breathing. Deep breathing triggers the lymph, your

    bodys sewage system which will give your cells more efficiency. It keeps the blood fully oxygenated.

    The physical aspect of lack of oxygen in the body is not as important as the mental and spiritual aspect.

    Lack of oxygen always slows your reaction time. The more oxygen our brains receive the better they

    function. Stress, fear and anxiety causes muscles to contract and blood vessels to constrict. When blood

    cannot be transported freely through the body to provide oxygen, and antibodies and to carry away and

    dispose toxic wastes, illness sets in. Mind is non material , but it works in partnership with

    communicator molecules. With every thought mind moves atoms of hydrogen, carbon , oxygen and

    other particles in the brain .

    Knowing the connection between breath and consciousness, the ancient yogis devised PRANAYAMA to

    stabilise energy and consciousness. Anxiety vanishes entirely when you are one with the rest of the

    universe. When your mind is disturbed the fundamental energy Prana leaks . Pranayama just reverses

    the process. People who do Pranayama regularly have quieter nerves , less lethargy , better sleep and

    lower BP. It prevents accumulation of Uric acid which gives joint pains. Fluctuations of mind are

    controlled and hence Pranayama prepares you for meditation.
