The Alpha and Omega of Trikonasana

Trikonasana has been used as an example to explain how asana practice is a journey from external beginnings to the knowledge of the ‘soulosphere’. The process of involution from the external geometry to the inner purport of Trikonasana is beautifully described. Most practitioners misunderstand the purport of the yogasanas as ‘doing the pose’. ‘Doing’, Prashantji explains, must include alerting, activating, sensitizing, perceiving and becoming pensive and reflective in a pose. These are all modes of ‘Doing’. He clearly explains that Yoga is a heuristic subject where ‘one learns from oneself and one teaches oneself’. This requires a keen observation of the interplay of the three major players in the asana practice – body, mind and breath.
