According to the true meaning of yoga, it is inseparable, because no matter what kind of yoga, it is a tool to the spiritual world for practitioners. Different tools are used, and methods naturally come from many sources; It's just that modern people always want to emphasize that their tools are particularly good, so they unconsciously start to reject other tools. This idea finally affected more people. I make a distinction here, just hope that everyone can better understand the characteristics of yoga and make it particularly vivid. I hope you don't pay special attention to a certain method and ignore more important things.
Wisdom yoga advocates the cultivation of knowledge concepts, liberating from ignorance and reaching sacred knowledge in order to look forward to being one with Brahma. Wisdom yoga believes that knowledge can be divided into lower and higher levels. The so-called knowledge of ordinary people is limited to the external manifestations of life and matter. This kind of low-level knowledge can be obtained directly or indirectly. The knowledge sought by wisdom yoga requires yogis to turn inward in an instant and experience and understand Brahma, the god of creation, through the essence of all external things. By reading the ancient classics that are regarded as apocalypse, we can understand the real hidden meaning in the book and get the sacred truth. Yoga practitioners rely on yoga practice to enhance their vitality, open the Brahma chakra above their heads, let Brahma enter the body and gain supreme wisdom.
Yoga philosophy holds that the tangible body is only the inner existence or carrier of the soul. More important than it is the "subtle" body (breath), which surrounds the tangible body through many qi veins and energy centers. Yoga philosophy holds that practicing yoga can activate the body's functions.
The lower branches of patanjali trees pay attention to the tangible body, while the higher branches pay attention to the subtle body. Dissecting the latter, we can see that it consists of seven energy centers-chakras and more than 70 thousand nadir. By learning physical training to control breathing and yoga posture, you can control the flow of energy through your body and finally achieve spiritual perfection.
The seven chakras translated from Sanskrit are "chakras" and "circles", which are the energy centers that connect subtle bodies with tangible bodies. Chakras store all human energy or prana, and control the release of energy through breathing. Each chakra is associated with some physical ability or emotion, usually with an element. All chakras except the zenith chakra have their own spells.
These seven chakras are distributed on the main air vein in sequence and at certain intervals, and the midvein forms a vertical path along the spine. The first wheel is located at the bottom of the spine, which is the undersea wheel. It means the foundation or source of life, which is related to life and soil. The reproductive chakra (meaning "where the soul is") is where sexual desire and enjoyment lie, and belongs to water. The next one is the umbilical chakra, which means "the sun". It is related to fire and controls people's willpower and endurance. Heart chakra means "unbeaten", which is related to the victory of love and passion and dominates "Qi". The throat chakra dominates wisdom and creativity. The brow chakra is located in the center of forehead, which is related to perception and consciousness. The last chakra on the chakra is the zenith chakra, which symbolizes eternity and opens the door to wisdom.
Qi pulse diagram Qi pulse is woven into a network of Qi pulse throughout the body. The most basic qi pulse is the midrib, which forms a vertical channel along the spine and connects seven chakras. Located on both sides of the midvein are the secondary air veins, namely, the right pulse and the left pulse, which control the energy in the body and are opposite to each other-described as yin and yang or yin and yang poles, similar to the situation that the left hemisphere and the right hemisphere of the brain control different functions in the tangible body.
