Vaasi Yoga is an art of living taught by Siddhars more than 3000 years ago, initiated by Lord Shiva. This is an advanced type of yoga which should be practiced only under the guidance of Guru. The specialty of this yoga is that, it has been practiced and mastered only by a very few in this world.

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 Guru who should be in a position to analyze the Nadifunctionality of one’s body. Guru who has the capacity to analyze the Nadi functionality is called Siva Sithan.^[1]

[edit]Misconceptions about Vaasi yoga

There has been lot of reference of this yoga to kriya yoga or kundalini prayanama (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.
