Yoga

Yoga is the science of ‘Union with God .’ There are various ways to achieve this. According to Bhagavad-Gita these are Yoga of action (Karma yoga),Yoga of knowledge (Gyan Yoga) and Yoga of devotion (Bhakti Yoga) . A Yogi is one who can imbibe the essence of all the three yogas in his daily life style. The practice of Yoga has been classically defined by Patanjali and the system is termed Rajayoga . It has eight ‘angas’ (subunits).


1. Yama (Five universal commandments)

  • Non violence 
  • Truth 
  • Not stealing 
  • Chastity 
  • Not coveting 

2. Niyama ( Five personal disciplines)

  • Purity 
  • Contentment 
  • Austerity 
  • Study 
  • Devotion

3. Bodily Posture
4. Pranayam ( Regulated Breathing)
5. Pratyahara ( Restrain of senses)
6. Dharna (Concentration)
7. Dhyana (Meditation)
8. Samadhi (Enlightenment)

The eight are like spokes of a wheel and are complementary to one another. The consciousness of the people attending is awakened into this comprehensive realm of yoga through the various components incorporated. This gives real 'Holistic' feel to the program. The effect perceived is not only physical but also include freedom from depression, dilemmas and anxiety.
