Naga Yoga

Before there was a word for yoga, there was the Serpent. Naga Yoga - Book Three of the House of the Nagas series - restores what a century of Western yoga has forgotten: that the coiled power Sir John Woodroffe famously documented in The Serpent Power (1919) has a name, a lineage, and a living intelligence. It is the Naga - and this book is the complete practice manual of its tradition. Across seven parts, Ajarn Shaman Shu delivers the full working curriculum of the world's oldest yoga:The Anatomy of the Serpent Power - the subtle body, the three Serpent Currents (Ida, Pingala, Sushumna), and the five Vayus, with Woodroffe's legacy reclaimed and its Naga context restored.
Preparing the Body - the Earth Naga asanas, grounding postures, and the Serpent Spine practices. Awakening the Breath - the science of pranayama, Nadi Shodhana, Bhastrika, and Kapalabhati as Water Naga arts. The Serpent Fire - rousing Kundalini at the Muladhara, the great Bandhas, and Khechari Mudra, the sovereign seal of the inner sky. The Naga Chakra System - the seven Serpent Gates with a complete master reference for every center: element, petals, bija mantra, presiding Naga order, ruling intelligence, color, and granthi.
Sky and Cosmic Practices - Naga Dhyana meditation, Trataka gazing, the bija mantras of the Five Orders of Nagas, and dream yoga on the subtle planes. The Complete Daily Sadhana - a full morning-to-evening architecture of awakening, with schedules, sequences, safeguards, and warnings for navigating the serpent's fire. The book closes with a complete glossary of Naga Yoga terminology and an appendix on the Sacred Order of the Nagas - its lineage, its dual Tantric and Yoruba roots, and the Kali Naga Initiation.
This is not yoga as exercise. It is yoga as it was first transmitted: a covenant with the living serpent intelligence coiled at the base of your spine.
