Jai Jai Ma, Jai Ma Yoga!

  

Jai Ma Yoga is the name of my yoga, a blend of studies from numerous teachers and lineages adding a personal note. 

The meaning has roots on the Sanskrit language. “Jai” originates from the word “Jaya” which means literal translated “victory”. In modern Indian language one term can have different meanings, depending on the context in which it is used. So as Jai Ma. “Ma” literally means “mother”. In a more spiritual context Jai Ma means “victory to the Divine Mother” or “salutation to the mother”.

Jai Ma is interpreted as an act of friendship to mother earth, remembering us on a mind- and joyful intercourse in the circle of life on our planet, with all it´s appearances, also as a connection to be part of something bigger.
