Protecting essential nature of yoga through its experiential phenomena

Abstract

Much has been said, in the recent most previous editorial pages, about the pure and pristine nature of yoga and its all important experiential phenomena. In view of the often evident arbitrary modes of yoga practices, made popular by vested interests, often overlook basic tenets of yoga philosophy. It is, therefore, incumbent upon us to evolve fairly acceptable modes of performing yoga practices, at the same time integrating all the basic tenets of yoga, adequately, into these modes. Broadly, these modes of yoga practices can be appropriately circumscribed for: i. General Health & Fitness ii. Therapeutic gains iii. Spiritual Pursuits.
