Yoga Styles: Târaka-Yoga

October 2nd 2009 16:28
Taraka-Raja-Yoga is a philosophy based confidential Brahmanical Yoga classification. Secret teachings involved with Taraka Yoga are not transmitted to the general public, only practitioners. There is a strong spiritual and intellectual emphasis, making it far distant from the Yoga workouts simply aimed at getting fit.

Taraka Yoga is reportedly liberation based, working on transcending the mundane and recognizing the inner divinity for the purpose of salvation through the use of meditation techniques. It combines classic Yoga with meditation practices aimed at Samadhi and visualization assistance from the divine.


The practice is based on the ancient Indian Hindu texts Târaka Upanishad and the Mandala Brâhmana Upanishad. Taraka may refer to one of the three Hindu deities bearing this title - a male daitya - son of Vajranaka, a female daitya - daughter of Yaksha Suketu, or second wife of the God Brihaspati.
