The Tristana: Breath, Posture, and the Gaze(Drishti)

“Ya Drishti Sa Shristi”

Drishti comes from a Sanskrit word meaning “focus” or “vision.” True purpose of the āsana practice is fully aware and present, moving toward your natural-self with an experiencing and finding your Drishti( sight ). We can all experience that where our focus is directed our concentration and energy naturally follows, and that the power of our Drishti is directly reflected in the quality of our physical and psychological balance.

What is Drishti?

तदा द्रष्टुः स्वरूपेऽवस्थानम्

In the Yoga sutra 1.3, it has been explained beautifully that what is the true nature, also known as self-actualization which is the ultimate outcome of Yoga—the discovery of one’s true nature. Drishti shun visual distractions and develops concentration.

In a simpler term Drishti is our focus point while performing a yoga pose, in Ashtanga Yoga each pose has a particular gazing point, but this not just an external vision in Sanskrit . Drishti comes from the root drsh which means “to perceive”. So Drishti is not just our simple external vision, but our complete cognitive experience, perceptions and understanding as well. Drishti relates to how we recognize our inner world in order to explore and experience our true-self.
