Ashtanga Seated Postures | Names in Sanskrit & English (from the Archives)

Writer's picture: Ashley CruzAshley Cruz

What is meant when "From the Archives" is written in a title such as the one above?

Because the Yoga Shakti Blog continues to thrive well into its second decade and because I write primarily about ideas of timeless nourishment, every once in a while I dive into the archive and resurface from among the thousands of essays or posts one worth re-savoring.


Delving into the extensive archive of thousands of essays and posts is akin to embarking on a journey through a treasure trove of wisdom and insight. Each piece carefully crafted and thoughtfully written, offering a unique perspective on various aspects of life, spirituality, and well-being.


With each resurfaced post, readers have the opportunity to re-engage with profound thoughts, rediscover forgotten gems, and perhaps glean new meanings in light of their own personal growth and experiences. This practice of revisiting and re-savoring content not only enriches the reader's understanding but also fosters a deeper connection to the essence of the blog and the profound wisdom it imparts.

Thus, I present to you a post from March 23, 2012.



Lots of thanks to Krishnamacharya and Pattabhi Jois for their generosity in sharing Ashtanga Yoga and the Seated Postures with everyone, and for asking nothing in return. We can all learn a lot from the Indian Gurus.


The music track in this video is: " Meditation of the Night" from Benji Wertheimer's amazing album, "Soul of the Esraj". The yoga practitioner is Michael Dynie.

Every month, I spend hundreds of hours keeping the Yoga Shakti Blog going. Since 2005, it has remained free, ad-free and alive thanks to patronage from readers. I have no staff, no interns, not even an assistant — it is a thoroughly one-woman labor of love that is also my life and my livelihood.
