Author(s): Dhanraj Vaijinathrao and Dr. Vikram Singh
Abstract:Yoga is an ancient Indian science which teaches man how to live in unity within himself and with those around him. It is recognized as one of the most important and valuable heritages of India. More than 2000 years ago, our ancestors developed it to bind the body, mind and spirit, as a harmonious whole. It has been growing in popularity with unbelievable rapidity over the years. Today the whole world is looking towards yoga for answers to the various problems the modern man is facing.
Yoga is a way of life. It is an integrated system of education for the body, mind and inner spirit. This art of right living was perfected and practiced in India thousands of years ago but, as yoga deals with universal truths, its teachings are valid today as they were in the ancient times. Yoga is a practical aid, does not belong to one religion and its techniques could be practiced by the Buddhists, Jews, Christians, Muslims, Hindus and the Atheists alike.
