Yoga is a spiritual discipline which aims for integrating the mind and body. Though much deeper in nature, yoga is usually practiced as physical culture with emphasis on breath coordination and awareness. The underlying principle of all yoga practices is same which is to cultivate a mind with the ability to relax, focus and meditate.
Yoga has spread throughout the globe cutting across countries, cultures and religions. This is because of the common shared values of peace, harmony and health that yoga has to offer. The principles of yoga are rooted in deep understanding of the structure and functioning of human body, mind and energy. Therefore, yoga practice not only develop physical health but also inner personality by cultivation a sense of self discipline and self awareness. Thus, yoga becomes a way of life which promotes conscious and not compulsive life which directly affects one’s health and wellbeing levels.
Yoga achieves this conscious living by bringing one’s awareness first to the grossest level of one’s personality i.e. body. As we begin to feel our body, yoga systematically elevates our awareness towards the finer aspects of personality like prana (vital energy) and mind. These finer aspects can be traced beyond the confines of our physical body to the outside world to give us a sense of unity or oneness. Since everything in the universe from gross to subtle is a single continuous mass of matter, the distinctions are narrowed. What once existed in pieces and functioned in compartments, now manifests and functions as one. Yoga defines this state as samatva or evenness. At body level this samatva can be experienced as homeostasis.
Homeostasis is a state of balance within the internal environment of body, which ensures stability. Homeostasis is necessary for survival and in its absence instability and disease ensues. By learning yoga in India one has the opportunity to learn traditional yoga can go deep into the secrets of health, longevity and happiness.
