Ardha Matsyendrasana 2

Matsyendra was one of the founders of Hatha Vidya.
Verse 27 of Hatha Yoga Pradipaka states ‘Matsyendrasana increases the appetite by fanning the gastric fire and destroys terrible diseases in the body; when practiced it rouses Kundalini and makes the moon steady.

It is said that the breath in the right nostril is hot and that in the left one is cold. Therefore, the breath in the right nostril is called the sun breath and the right nadi is referred to as pingala and the breath in the left nostril is called the moon breath and the left nadi is called ida.

The moon travelling in ida sprinkles its nectar through the entire system and the sun travelling in pingala dries out the whole system, for the human body is regarded as a mini universe. It is said that the moon is located at the root of the palate, ever dropping cool ambrosial nectar that is wasted by feeding the gastric fire. Matsyendrasana prevents this.
