Category:Kriyas

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Kriya (Yoga) and the Ashtanga (Yoga) are the two spiritual exercise paths from the Yoga (philosophy), especially in the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali. Ashtanga is defined with 8 limbs and 10 sublimbs; Kriya is defined with only 3 of the Ashtanga sublimbs. The most compact spiritual exercise set in Yoga (philosophy) is such a Kriya, with exactly these three required components. In Hatha Yoga, the term kriya is also used for single exercises that could be integrated into any threefold spiritual-philosophical exercises. However, a Kriya in the sense of Yoga (philosophy) is not just any single component, but a fully designed threefold exercise set.
