Actor Vidyut Jammwal posted a viral video of his annual yogic routine, showing him climbing a tree naked, meditating in snow, and walking a tightrope. He explained it as the Kalaripayattu practice of 'Sahaja' to connect with nature.
Actor Vidyut Jammwal, known for his strong bond with nature and fitness, once again demonstrated his commitment to fitness and his love of pushing his limits. On Saturday, the actor posted on Instagram, sharing moments from his time in nature as he followed his annual yogic routine, giving fans a glimpse into a side of his life away from film sets.
Annual 'Sahaja' Practice Goes Viral
Vidyut posted a video of himself climbing a tree without clothes. This immediately caught attention on social media, and soon the clip went viral. The video also shows him sitting calmly in deep snow, offering prayers, and walking carefully on a thin rope across open plateaus.
Alongside the video, the 'Commando' actor also added a caption explaining the meaning of this ritual. In the note, he explained that, as a Kalaripayattu practitioner, he follows the yogic practice of "Sahaja," which he described as a return to natural ease and instinct. He shared that the practice helps him connect more deeply with nature and his inner self. "As a Kalaripayattu practitioner, I delve into the yogic practice of Sahaja once a year. Sahaja means returning to a state of natural ease and instinct, fostering a deeper connection to nature and inner awareness. Scientifically, it activates numerous neuroreceptors and proprioceptors, enhancing sensory feedback and improving balance and coordination. This leads to greater body awareness, heightened mental focus, and a profound sense of grounding," read his Instagram post.
