Meaning of Sanjivani Sanjivani is a Sanskrit word which means something with which life is attached, or something with which life is together with.

So the Sanjivaji herb is found in the valleys of Himalayas. This is said to be life saving herb. Hindu Scripture says that, lord Rama used Sanjivani herb to revive his young brothers life from death trap. From there this series has been named as Sanjivani. Because a healthy yoga practice can be proved life saving as well as life enhancing, in every aspect of life Physically, mentally and spiritually.

In Sanskrit its is called Marjari asana.

Since it is a moving pose, so I call it Marjari Kriya yoga. Kriya is a also a Sanskrit language word, which means action, it can also be defined as process. Marjari Kriya theme as we observe and see that cats have one of the most flexible spine, in the animals which live around us. And because of the flexibility of spine they are able to skill themselves to be able to do specular actions and make themselves able to survive. When you obverse a cat you will also see how it keeps its spine flexible and healthy by giving its spine different move and stretches in all directions.
