Learning and practicing yoga is one, and the application of yoga on others is entirely different.  This difference between yoga and the application of yoga has not been well stressed.  This has resulted in the same yoga techniques that teachers have learnt being applied on other people without giving due consideration to the constitutions of the individuals, their capability, their requirements, and without individuality in the teaching methodology itself.

Yoga, from its inception, is very clear that it is intimately personal and deeply experiential.  Only the practitioner can experience his or her yoga. On the other hand, yoga has innumerable principles, many potent techniques and tools and a rich science inculcated in it.  They have been nurtured and strengthened by an uninterrupted lineage of great masters in yoga.   In application of yoga, yoga teachers apply these principles on others to bring out the specific, pre-contemplated and appropriate response.

Yoga recognizes five different types of application namely:

1. Sristi krama
2. Siksana krama
3. Raksana krama
4. Adhyatmika krama
5. Cikitsa krama

Each type of application has its own set of principles behind, and within, its operation so as to make the application most appropriate, effective and intelligent. 

 

      Thus, each type of application is unique in its own way.

 

This module deals extensively with a comprehensive study of each type of application and each level of application (introductory, middle stage and advanced). Each will include the following considerations:

On whom? Complete study of the individual.
For what purpose?  Assessment of the individual and the requirements.
How?  The methodology of application.
