Is the sun salute traditionally done while saying a mantra, and if so why does it not get taught much? Also can anybody help me with the mantra words and how it gets done please.
Thanks

It says there:-
In order to “synchronize postures, breath, mantras and bring attention to certain chakras when performing Surya Namaskara.It needs complete devotion.”
I think it might be done generally with the traditional version of surya namsakar.But the mantras should have certain vibrational effects.
Here, let me google that for you.
I think most yoga is not taught with mantra today because it is being “modernized.” Also, much of the asana that was done in India was a blend of yoga and British gymnastics, and maybe they weren’t doing mantra with that?
