Preface
Ashtanga translates literally to mean "eight limbs". The word is a combination of two Sanskrit words: "ashta" meaning eight, and "anga" meaning limb. In modern use, Ashtanga has two distinct meanings: it's a name for an ancient philosophy of yoga, and also a modern series of choreographed asana practices. Ashtanga as first used around 2500 years ago by Maharishi Patanjali in his book Raja Yoga Sutras, has been used for generations to refer to the Yoga philosophy of practicing eight parts or limbs of yoga in order to reach enlightenment. Raja Yoga, the path of yoga that involves practicing these eight limbs, is therefore also called Ashtanga Yoga. Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga is a subset of Hatha Yoga originated by the teachings of Yogi Vamana explained in his text 'Yoga Kuranta.' Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga is not Ashtanga Yoga. Patanjali, in his Yoga Sutras first mentioned "Ashtanga Yoga" and this is a lifestyle comprising eight different factors. Among eight limbs of Ashtanga Yoga of Patanjali, Asana is the third limb. Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga is a subset in the asana section. All asana practice methods, be it Iyengar's Yoga or Vinyasa Yoga all are different forms of Hatha Yoga. All these different asana practice methods have evolved on their own over the period of time and became popular. Sri Krishnamacharya (1888-1989) is considered the father of Vinyasa Yoga as a style of yoga practice. He taught that the movements between each asana should be considered just as significant as the postures themselves. Many claim 'vinyasa' means 'with the breath'. Although breath is used as an important component in Vinyasa Yoga, 'vinyasa' does not mean breath. Every asana practice method has its own perspective. But in the end, all are different forms of Hatha Yoga. Patanjali calls his eight limb Yoga as Ashtanga Yoga and often people get confused to think that both are the same.
