Mantra collection of Yoga Mantras
Mantra collection of Yoga
A mantra is a sacred verse or sound. Symbolic it represents a spiritual experience. A large Yoga Mantra collection with translations from Sanskrit
The most popular (mantra) only consists of two letters: OM! Yet there are numerous mantras which symbolize the spiritual background of Yoga. Traditionally, we open and close our Ashtanga practice with a mantra. Here you find the most important mantras in their original Sanskrit writing as well as the word-by-word translation.
The Ashtanga Yoga Mantra opens the practice
A profound part of the tradition is the opening mantra that starts every Ashtanga practice. We salute this ancient tradition and Patanjali. more »

The Ananta Mantra, Adoration of Antanta, King of the Nagas
