Vinyasa Krama; The Art of Enlightened Transition
Felise Berman Friday August 26, 2005
Vinyasa is breath synchronized movement seamlessly united with the intention of God Realization. Krama is a sequential process designed to awaken inherent divine energy. Vinyasa Krama is a Sanskrit term that means the optimal sequencing of events. It is a sequential outline for attaining peace and artful liberation. When practicing asana one links breath and our inner intentions with our outer actions. We correlate yoga postures with conscious breathing and divine intention, arranging postures in a sequential format to transform the body, mind and spirit.
The breath becomes the thread that links movement in a sequence of postural changes. When you practice in this way you will notice change is always occurring. I encourage you do not be swayed by the constant fluctuation of change; instead move through transitions peacefully, gracefully and artfully. Your practice can be a succession of changes undertaken with a single pointed intention, free from fluctuations of the mind. What is your intention? GOD Realiziation!
Vinyasa Krama is articulated by knowing the essence of the sequence and keeping a solid continuous flowing pace in a steady unbroken stream, similar to composing music. Move with grace and sweet intention during your asana practice. In all asana sequences you are the artisan of that moment in time, continually creating a BODY OF WORK, your body becomes the rhythm of artful and peaceful living.

When practicing Vinyasa Krama the breath and movement are seamlessly united in such a way that each action encourages and supports the other, like a drummer supports a guitarist to create a song or musicians play instruments to create a symphony. Your body joins with your breath to create a vehicle for peace. As long as we are in this body, life is changing, artfully explore the transitions and MOVE WITH GRACE.
