Replaces rdhva Dhanursana as practiced in 1st Series

After about two years of constant practice a new energetic dimension unfolds
for you. This phase on the path of Yoga is called Ni odhana, the cleansing of
the energetic channels. Breath (Ujjy ex in ), energy control (Bandha) and focus
(ti
) become continuously more deep in experience. Sometimes at this
point the physical body is so flexible and powerful that the 1st Series (see there)
is no longer adequate as a field for learning. Then 2nd Series forms
a new opportunity for practice.
The transitions between positions follow the same logic as in the series before.
The new positions of 2nd series are added (Sunday to Thursday, except on moon
days) to the 1st Series just before rdhva Dhanursana. Following the outlined
steps, you can build up your practice, together with an experienced teacher.
In this manner 2nd series will slowly replace 1st series on
five days per week.
