One cares for the physical body not for its own sake but as a vehicle or temple of the Divine. Kriya Hatha Yoga: including 'asanas,' physical postures of relaxation, 'bandahs,' muscular locks, and 'mudras,' psycho-physical gestures, all of which bring about greater health, peace and the awakening of the principal energy channels, “the nadis”, and centers, the 'chakras.' Babaji has selected a particularly effective series of 18 postures, which are taught in stages and in pairs.
