Sun Salutation

            For the yogis who practice yoga, Lord Shiva has manifested as many yogas in the world as there are in 84 lakh births. Even better than that is 84 yoga and if we talk about the best yoga than that, then Pranayama is the best yoga in meditation yoga. But with the change of time, there have been many changes in it, some are not able to do these yogas, then some do not have time. So to say that all these yogas have been included in the form of Surya Namaskar, it means that all the yogas have been molded in the form of Surya Namaskar in the form of Surya Namaskar or else it can be said that Surya Namaskar is the essence of all yogas. . In today's time, taking out some time and doing exercise like Surya Namaskar, no one can do it irrespective of any caste, any religion, Can be done easily at any age. By the way, the real meaning of Surya Namaskar is that one has to offer oneself to the Sun (considering the Sun as God). By the way, Surya Namaskar is done for meditation, to calm the mind, to maintain energy in the body (for immunity), to protect against diseases.

Discovery of Surya Namaskar

According to saints or Puranas, the discovery of Surya Namaskar has been attributed to Hanuman ji because when he was in the form of a child, Lord Surya was appointed as his teacher to gain knowledge and Hanuman ji was his teacher. God also used to get knowledge from Surya and to show respect to him or to pay respect to his Guru Surya Bhagwan, he used to do 12-way asanas.



Which was jointly given the form of 'Surya Namaskar'. Many other asanas have been given by Hanuman ji in Yoga, which is famous by the name of Hanuman ji. Mainly Surya Namaskar is more famous.
