Laya Yoga
Laya means "dissolution" and refers to the melting of all the mental impressions into a superiour state of consciousness. Laya Yoga is usually called "the yoga of absorption", or absorbing the lower nature by the higher spiritual forces. This process is a liberating one, causing the samskaras to be dissolved and turned into spiritual energy. The result is that the Laya Yoga perseveringly practitioner will be freed from the holds of karma.

Laya yoga is the absorption of the mind in sound. The goal of this practice is to alter one's normal awareness of self by focusing on hearing an internal, mystic sound. The mind will become steady and absorbed in the sound on which it focuses. In space, sound is produced by the movement of sound waves in the air. So, too, in the body, there are currents that flow and produce sound when one practices pranayama.

The term "Laya Yoga" is usually used in two different ways: firstly to refer to a very particular method of practice or even a single exercise (sadhana), which melts mental conditionings, or causes of suffering. The second meaning refers to a many-sided and ordered initiation system designed to lead the practitioner to liberation (via the methods of absorption and dissolution). Laya Yoga can be practiced either as a tantric system or vedic system – "Tantrika Laya Yoga" or "Vaidika Laya Yoga".<br />
Philosophically the spiritual aim of the Laya Yoga school is described in the treatise "Yogabija" (142) as identity, uniformity (aikya), kshtera (fields of mind and ego) with kshterajna (authority of field, cognitive consciousness). After realizing this identity the mind melts itself, and when the Laya state appears, vital force (pavana) becomes stable. Because of the state of absorption (Laya) a man can achieve the state of ananda- unlimited bliss resulting from a transcendental state of consciousness and mind.
