Surya Shakti

Surya means Sun, and Shakti means Power or Energy. Surya Shakti is a complete process by itself. According to Sadhguru, if you practice 108 Surya Shaktis daily, there is no need for any other exercise. It leads to physical fitness and a heightened energy state.

One of the reasons people fall ill is because they don't know how to be still. Only when your spine is strong enough can you remain still. Surya Shakti strengthens the spine, preparing you for deeper stillness and helping you use your body and mind to their fullest potential. A daily practice of Surya Shakti can create miraculous improvements in both physical and mental well-being.

Difference Between Surya Shakti, Surya Namaskar, and Surya Kriya

Surya Kriya is the foundational practice that activates the human system and balances internal energies. It is said that Lord Krishna practised Surya Kriya every day, even during the battlefield. His day always began with this.

Surya Shakti, on the other hand, is a sister practice to Surya Kriya, focused primarily on physical fitness. It can be taught to large groups with just a few checks and balances.

Surya Namaskar falls between these two. It combines both physical fitness and spiritual benefits and is often taught to larger groups seeking spiritual upliftment alongside fitness.
