Right Concept of Relevant Yoga

Yoga is one of the very important six systems of the ‘Indian Philosophy’.  Though basically it is the same but it is known through many names viz. Bhakti Yoga, Gyan Yoga, Karma Yoga, Raja Yoga, Laya Yoga, Naad Yoga, Bindu Yoga, Mantra Yoga, Dhyan Yoga, Hatha Yoga etc. The methods through which they are practised are different but their goal is the same and that is “Liberation”, Eternal Peace, Bliss & Self-Realization. Here we shall mainly confine ourselves to and talk about “Ashtang Yoga” which is “Supreme” and contains the rest. It yields definite results and it practice leads the individual towards perfect physical health, mental peace & self-realization.

It has eight subdivisions. They are Yama (restraint of passions), Niyama(religious observance), Asanas(Yogic Postures), Pranayama (regulation & control of breath), Pratyahara(withdrawl of senses from their objects), Dharna(concentration), Dhyana(meditation) & Samadhi(trance). It is the science of soul and is an art for living an exalted blissful life full of vigorousity. People in all countries of the world, more especially the westerners, are being attracted and fascinated, for they feel confident that they would secure, without any doubt, eternal peace, pleasure, everlasting youth, spiritual uplift and finally a state of self-realization through it.
