DVANDVA ARDHA VIPARITA KARANI

This pose is a SO much easier performed 1 than what we see in yoga books as Viparita Karani(what i myself and other yoga sources call the Paripurna pose);The reality of our contemporary life is we cannot perform complicated poses and even despise people performing them somehow;while performing/doing yoga even incorrectly greatly decreases the quantity of say heart strokes and such in our common population;not to mention other health complications.Even myself,something of a yoga master,often preferring this much simpler by execution a pose to traditional Viparita Karani variation.As i have not enough time(often lately)i find craving simpler by execution variations;even as more complicated ones give better final results,reality of life often demands simpler variations.Thats how btw the more perfect tanks of nazi Germany of WW II lost tank battles to much simpler soviet variations-complicated as they were,they could not perform AS fast and manouevering as much simpler russian T 34 tanks;an avid reader of my then Motherland History,i read numerous tank battles descriptions of WW II,all of which proving 1 main point:COMPLICATED tanks/military technics LOSE REAL BATTLEs TO much SIMPLER yet more manoevering military technics as these simpler ones simply are moving more frequently in the same amount of time allowed;and this speed of action the main weapon in our days. HOW TO DO Lay down face upwards by a wall,which is closest to your legs/toes and furthest from your head.Now pick the legs up and position them upon the wall,best making a vertical like/touching the wall with ALL the legs' parts,but might be up to 45 degrees too.Stay in it till able to,returning to lay down/relax for a while before resuming normal activities.Another,a bit harder variation 1 should be attempting to perform(in case Paripurna Viparita Karani,what each yoga book shows,might be too hard for you),is when you have both of your legs vertically pointing upwards even with no wall to support them;then,having your arms support the entire weight your body holds from each of the sides,point this entire weight leftwards,till able to hold the weight,and later rightwards,again till tired only.Fat/heavy/unhealthy individuals will be having problems even with THIS very simple variation of Viparita Karani pose;however they must know that this simple exercise will cure them of heart conditions in case they perform this Dvandva Ardha Viparita Karani pose regularly.Stronger in this(other too)senses as regular Viparita Karani certainly is,this Ardha pose,being though for beginners,can indeed improve the heart and cardiovascular system in general for even people with no sportive inclinations;poses i can do(am a seasoned yogi by now after numerous years in the art)act the very same way as this pose does;but it IS hard to perform them;while such simpler poses as this 1 lead us to the very same effect of general improvement in our cardiovascular(simply speaking,blood and heart connected)systems-1 thing our society completely fails us to find in this overly active age.What a person DOES need nowadays even as not realizing this is some sort of heart/blood exercises;the persentage of heart connected deaths(largest killer of people nowadays as statistics claim)would fall dramatically if such minor heart exercises as this 1 would be practised daily by people.
