This page is part of the Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Center Web site. Karma Yoga is one of the four paths of Yoga. In this page are the key components that determine that any action will qualify as being Karma Yoga.

Ashtanga
is your Health Club on a Sticky Mat, a complete lifestyle comprising a proper diet, positive mental outlook, a series of stress reducing physical postures linked to correct natural breathing, and meditative focus.

Bhakti
Yoga is the path of channelling the emotions and feelings to realise the transcendental and divine nature inherent in every human being.

Dharana
The last three limbs of Ashtanga Yoga are the three essential stages of meditation. Dharana involves developing and extending our powers of concentration. This consists of various ways of directing and controlling our attention and mind-fixing skills, such as concentrating on the chakras or turning inwards.

Hatha
yoga (Sanskrit haṭha yoga), also known as Hatha vidya, is a particular system of Yoga introduced by Yogi Swatmarama, a sage of 15th century India, and compiler of the Hatha Yoga Pradipika.

Jnana Yoga This is the most difficult path, requiring tremendous strength of will and intellect. Taking the philosophy of Vedanta the Jnana Yogi uses his mind to inquire into its own nature.

Kundalini
Yoga concentrates on psychic centers or chakras in the body in order to generate a spiritual power, which is known as kundalini energy.

Mantra
Yoga refers to the repetition of mantras (words or sounds) during various yoga meditation techniques. This ritualistic chanting helps bind the mind to a single thought until it attains the state of samadhi.

Japa Yoga
benefits of Mantra-writing or Likhita Japa cannot be adequately described. Besides bringing about purity of heart and concentration of mind, mantra-writing gives you control of Asana, control of Indriyas, particularly the sight and the tongue, and fills you with the power of endurance.

Raja Yoga Raja means royal or kingly. Raja yoga meditation is generally based on directing one’s life force to bring the mind and emotions so into balance that the attention may be easily focused on the object of meditation, or the Lord directly.

Laya Yoga
Laya Yoga is one facet of the Art of Yoga. It is regarded as the highest form of yoga. It is the pinnacle, the zenith of one’s quest for inner peace and dialogue with one’s soul and tuning with universal energy.

Nada Yoga
Nada Yoga means union (yoga) with the Self, the nadam, that primordial energy which is the source of all that is. In the rigveda, the oldest text of the 4,000 year old vedic scriptures of India, sound is called nada brahma (sound of the creator god brahma).

Integral (Purna) Yoga
Purna Yoga or integral yoga is said to be an improvisation over the traditional Yoga systems of India. It was thought that the traditional Yoga system revolved more around salvation and next life rather than the present one.
