  • Breakdown of "Hatha" (हठ):

    • "हं" (Ham) = Hum

      • Pingala Nadi (Right energy channel)
      • Surya Nadi (Solar channel)
      • Dakshina (Right side)
      • Prism (Heat, Fire element)
      • Shiva (Consciousness, Masculine Energy)

    • "ठं" (Tham) = Thum

      • Ida Nadi (Left energy channel)
      • Chandra Nadi (Lunar channel)
      • Vama (Left side)
      • Sheet (Cool, Water element)
      • Shakti (Energy, Feminine force)

This explanation illustrates how Hatha Yoga is the union of opposing forces—the Sun (Pingala) and the Moon (Ida), Shiva (consciousness) and Shakti (energy). The practice of Hatha Yoga harmonizes these dualities within the body and mind, ultimately preparing the practitioner for higher states of consciousness in Raja Yoga.
