Yoga

INTRODUCTION OF YOGA

Yoga has been called a living fossil. It belongs to the earliest manifestations of India’s cultural heritage. Today, hundreds of thousands of westerners are actively practicing some form of Yoga, though they do not always have a clear understanding of its traditional goals and purposes. To learn about the historical evolution of Yoga is more than an academic exercise; it actually furthers our self-understanding and hence our efforts to swim free boundaries of ego-personality. Patanjali gave the Yoga tradition its classical format, and hence his school is often referred to as Classical Yoga. He composed his aphoristic work in the philosophical speculation and debate in India, and it is to his credit that he supplied the Yoga tradition with a reasonably homogeneous theoretical frame work that could stand up against the many rival traditions, such as Vedanta, Nyaya, and not least Buddhism. It is a fact, however, that Patanjali’s Yoga–sutra has eclipsed all earlier sutra works within the Yoga tradition, perhaps because it was the most comprehensive or systematic.

Yoga is becoming popular in all the part of the world. It was originated from India. Everybody need time to accept new thing. So many years and decades over people took time to accept sciences, which gives now comfort, medicines, transport, electricity, computer, air bus etc. Same think it takes more than thousands of years to accept yoga in the society. Now, everywhere in the corner of the world there is yoga center. It is becoming more popular and popular after people start knowing the benefits of yoga. For the restless mind it gives solace. For the sick, it is a boon. For the family it gives relations. For the work it boosts up the energy. For the common people it is the fashion to keep him or herself fit and beautiful. There are different types of yoga developed according to the time being. When the people are changing the types of yoga are also start slowly changing. But, all the types of yoga are started from same root.
