The difference between viparita karani mudra and sarvangasana - Shailendra Negi, Vedic Yoga Centre

This video explains that viparita karani mudra looks very similar to sarvangasana, but there is a slight difference in the physical posture. In sarvangasana, you stand mostly on your shoulders, and there is pressure on your throat, as the chin comes close to your chest, and the spine and legs are at a 90-degree angle to the floor. The weight of the body is on the shoulders. In viparita karani, the spinal column is at a 45-degree angle, and the feet are slightly towards the forehead. The main weight of the body is on the arms rather than the shoulders. There is also no pressure on the throat as the chin does not touch the chest. This is just a physical difference, but viparita karani is an attitude of deeper awareness towards the energy impulses in the spinal column which are being carried through the breath. So it's a practice in which you are strengthening your energy body so that it helps to prepare you for the practices of higher awareness. The solar and the lunar energy frequency are also balanced through this mudra. All the mudras of Hatha Yoga are also the practices of kriya yoga so you should not see the difference. They have one and the same purpose - to invoke your energy and raise it so that it can come closer to its source.
