In addition to eating a pure diet, yoga teachings recommend various techniques to cleanse the digestive system and purify the sense of taste. Some of these are beyond the scope of what is recommended in normal detox programmes.

In addition to pranayama, kriyas (cleansing techniques) have far-reaching benefits. They can enable not only an enhanced ability to ‘smell the roses’, but also stronger lungs, clearer skin, and a calmer, more transparent and steadier mind.

Krishna as the object of bhakti (devotion) involves ways of acting, thinking and willing that channel the emotions and orient you towards inner peace. You attempt to become a pure instrument, as symbolised by the flute, so that divine energy can flow unhampered.
