And there are many levels of answer to this question. Can be called nationality, gender, profession, last resort, any personal quality. And most people are satisfied with this explanation, creating in their minds a certain image of themselves.

Indeed, the Shankha-Prakshalana method is not limited to thoroughly purifying an exclusively physical body. Often, in the process of its execution, blocks in the etheric, mental areas of the human being are revealed and removed. And there is no other simple medicine or method (other than prolonged fasting) that could help a practitioner enter the process of prolonged fasting.

So, after drinking a couple of glasses of water, the following exercises are performed (8 times). Exercises are available to most people:
1. Tadasana (variation of the Mount pose with intense stretching of arms up):
