Ghatastha Yoga consists of seven limbs: purification, strength, steadiness, patience, lightness, realization, and detachment. Purification is achieved through Shatkarma practices like Dhauti, Basti, and Neti. Strength results from asanas, specifically thirty-two postures such as Siddhasana and Padmasana. Steadiness comes from mudras, while patience is cultivated through pratyahara, the withdrawal of the mind from sensory inputs. Lightness is attained via pranayama, and realization through meditation. Detachment and liberation follow from samadhi.
Samadhi manifests in six types, each linked to specific practices. Dhyana Yoga Samadhi arises from Shambhavi Mudra, where the soul is positioned in the sky. Nadyoga Samadhi results from Bhramari Kumbhaka, focusing on internal sound. Rasanand Samadhi is achieved through Khechari Mudra, which extends the tongue to the palate. Layasiddhi Yoga Samadhi occurs via Yoni Mudra, fostering a sense of oneness with Brahma. Bhaktiyoga Samadhi emerges from ecstatic devotion and tears, while Rajayoga Samadhi is reached through unconsciousness and mind-soul unity. Attaining these states frees the seeker from worldly conditions, attachment, and lust. The seeker identifies as Brahma, recognizing the non-dual nature of the soul separate from the body. This realization eliminates sorrow and grants a joyous existence. The text notes that devotees attain this freedom through guru grace or daily yoga practice, ending the cycle of birth and death.
