BHUJANGASANA

In the previous asana the near portion of the back bone was given a bend. By this asana the upper portion of the back bone is given a bend. The correct position of this asana will look like a serpent raising its head.

Procedure

1. Place a blanket folded length wise.
2. Lie down on the blanket gently facing the ground.
3. Give a relaxed condition of the body.
4. Place the hands on the sides, palm facing the ground.
5. Raise the head and chest.
6. It will be noticed that the back bone is given a backward curve at the beginning portion.
7. Gently come to the original position.

Do like this some six or seven times. In the previous position the legs and the head was raised but in this only the head is raised.

Fruit of Asana

All forms of diseases of the generative organs will be cured. Hunch back will be cured. This will keep the Kundalini sakthi to raise up. Since the intestines are pressed the undigested food is moved towards anus.

For young girls this asana is good. In the growing period the eturus will become strong. Pregnant ladies should not do this Asana.
