description Yoga practice is usually promoted as a way to reunite “body, mind and spirit”. However, for expert practitioners it implies not only a method but a condition of the self. Based in ethnographic description of diverse yoga practices, this paper analyzes how experts experience and link those dimensions through the category of “consciousness”. It inqurires how yoga reflexive body techniques (prānāyamas and āsanas) induce somatic modes of attention to body and mind through “concentration”. It elucitades the meaning that practitioners and teachers ascribe to this categories, showing that dichotomic pairs (such as material body/ inmaterial mind) are neither productive to analyze experience nor hinduism philosophy from which Yoga derives.
