Vinasa or VinAza

[Berserker]

In the sanskrit dictionary the Vinasa means " without a nose " And the VinAza is " death, destruction." Here on the forum many people use the word vinasa. My opinion is the VinAza is correct word to work. When I used Vinasa, wasn't result. When used Vinaza, (just first Time) my solar plexus was "painful". Of course I didn't use it myself.
What is your opinion?

 

[NakedPluto [JG]]

Having no "smell", "nose", spiritually is akin to death and destruction. Loss of smell is loss of identity, emotions, memory, and touch of reality.

 

[Stormblood]

That is incorrect. Vinasa has many meanings and Sanskrit is not a literal language, like NakedPluto explained. It requires both the hemispheres of your brain to work in harmony in order to fully understand it as a language. There is also a big difference between Vedic Sanskrit and modern Sanskrit. Modern Sanskrit is by far inferior.

Here are some more sources for the meaning of vinasa:

Notice there is no Z in the proper transliterations and it is also not a simple 's' but the same sibilant as in Siva and Sakti, which is MISpronounced as 'sh' by Westerners.
