Vaasi Yoga

Vaasi yoga (vasi yoga) is a form of yoga that concentrates on the breath naadi (nadi), the cycle of the distribution of oxygen
throughout the body, that occurs as part of the breathing process. Indian philosophy describes prana (life force) as flowing in
channels called naadis. Vaasi yoga attempts to heal the body and sprirt by cleansing the breath naadi, and thus prepare for balance,
true consciousness of self and then enlightenment. As such it is one of the kaya kalpa, the class of ancient yogic rejuvenation
therapies.[1] As a yogic practice it is an art of living taught by siddhars for over 3000 years ago, as initiated by Lord Shiva. Like other
advanced types of yoga which should be practiced only under the guidance of
Guru. Vaasi yoga is practiced by very few.

Vaasi yogam is the attainment of consciousness about the silent sound in our breath. To attain this consciousness, the body should be
devoid of any waste. To remove all the waste from one’s body, one should be taught with asanas by a guru who should be in a
position to analyze the naadi functionality of one’s body. A guru who has the capacity to analyze the naadi functionality is called
Siva Sithan.[2]

Misconceptions about Vaasi yoga

There has been lot of reference of this yoga to kriya yoga or kundalini pranayama (Yogic Breathing to increase the pranic energy).
But all of the above practices are being followed or taught, without empowering the body to practice it. In other words, when the
physique is not devoid of waste and when one with such a physique, practices any kind of yoga or breathing techniques, it will only
aggravate the body conditions due to the heat or agni produced. All other kinds of yoga do not tend to remove the waste from the
body, instead only rise the body temperature and increase the appetite. But in Vaasi yoga, food intake gets controlled automatically
and one can control the appetite for food casually
.

Naadi and Vaasi Yoga

Our body cells need oxygen derived from air. There are some definite paths for oxygen to reach the cells and to go out of cells. These
paths have some energy centres. These centres control the organs and their functions. This pattern, this throb, which is called ‘Naadi’
in Tamil, differs from person to person. The pulse beat should be not taken for ‘Naadi’. For a healthy living the Naadi has to function
properly and be fully active. The imbalance in the Naadi functionality is the root cause of all ailments and diseases. By practicing
Vaasi Yoga Naadi functionality gets strengthened and healthy living is achieved. Vaasi Yoga is a technique to breath. The yogis who
are expert in vaasi yoga avoids breathing through normal nostrils. But they exhale the air upward towards kapala (Brain). This
strengthens the brain and give brightness to face and whole body too. Siddhar Shiva vaakiyar (Tamil Nadu) has narrated the secret of
Vaasi yoga and its benefit.
Stages in Vaasi Yoga
Vaasi Yoga has unique nature of attaining the consciousness of the Self, by the following stages.

1. Analysis of Nadi functionality – Guru must have the capacity to identify the imbalance between the 3 Nadis’ Idakalai,
Pingalai and Sulumunai. The reason being, each individual is unique in nature and the functioning of the body will
vary due to the imbalance in these 3 Nadis. The body temperature might be dif ferent for every individual based on
Vatham, Pitham and Kabam. Hence, that hasto be brought under control to a stable level before practicing any kind
of yoga .
2. Asanas to empower body – Based on the above analysis, Guru must have the capacity to teach breathing
techniques and asanas to bring the body and breath to a stable condition devoid of any waste. During this period 5
kinds of waste disposal happens. Motion, urine, sweat, mucous and gas. This will happen for minimum of 3 months.
Only at the end of 3 months with devoid of all the waste from the body, the breath will be in control. Only when
breath is under control, Vaasi can act upon us.
3. Realizing self - Only through Vaasi Yoga, one can attain the consciousness of the true Se lf. Another benefit of Vaasi
yoga is being younger in appearance. Because V aasi yoga will burn out all the waste in our body and will only look
leaner and younger without any excess muscles in our body . This is the reason why Siddhars lived for years
together.

Scientific Reason
Vaasi Yoga practice simulates two special hormones 1. Seratonin 2. Melatonin. These two hormones ultimately stabilizes all the
working systems in our body. They also help in experiencing the spiritual feeling in our body
.
