Yoga takes you deep into the
innermost recesses of the mind where the self or the real person resides,
camouflaged by the forever flippant mind. Therefore it becomes more relevant
for all of us in the hectic and tension life expected ahead in the 21st
Century.
Yoga, literally means Union. An ancient Indian Discipline, Yoga seek to
unite the individual soul (Jivatman) with the universal Soul or God (Paramatama)
through rigorous mental and physical efforts.
The aim of yoga is to enable the Yogi to transcend sense perceived,
temporary appearances, unrealities and attain a vision and an experience of
the super sensuous Divine Reality as well as attain peace and harmony. The
Challenge lies in transforming the inert (Tamasic) body to the level of
vibrant (Rajasic) mind and then body and mind to be one with the serenity of
the self or soul.
The Yoga, with the rhythm of the body, the melody of the mind and the
harmony of the soul, creates the symphony of life.
Whether regards as a performing art (Kala) or a Science (Shastra), Yoga
provides the finest system of education, for it brings out the best in a
person. Only with Yoga, does emancipation (Moksha) Seem so close.
