Vinyasakrama: sort order. Popularly perceived as a workout or fitness approach to yoga asana, Vinyasakrama can be explained as "intentional placement" or "specified order." The "flow" created by the seamless transition from posture to posture has become synonymous with the word vinyasa. The intention of Vinyasakrama is to create ease of movement and grace. As the sequence becomes more natural, through repetition, less focus is required to direct your body. Thus, you begin to practice dharana: mindfulness or concentration. Vinyasakrama can be slow or rapid, simple or expressive. In each case, most important is the order of the postures as this establishes the intention of your focus.
Do the sequences your teacher or instructor guides make sense? Can you feel the intention of the vinyasakrama? Do you experience a shift beyond your body as you practice?
