Yoga is the oldest system of personal development in the world encompassing the entire body, mind, and spirit. It is the union between a person's own consciousness and the universal consciousness. It exercises have a holistic effect and bring body, mind, and soul into balance. Yoga helps to develop a greater positive thinking, perseverance, orientation towards the supreme prayer as well as kindness and understanding from the way to self-knowledge and self-realization. Yoga has also been described as wisdom in work of skillful living amongst activities, harmony and moderation. Yoga Asanas have a profound impact on the systems of the human body. The muscles, bones, nervous system, respiratory, circulatory and digestive systems of the human body are greatly benefited from regular practice of yoga asanas. The body becomes more flexible, and more able to adjust to environmental changes after practising asanas. The sympathetic and para-sympathetic nervous systems are brought into a state of balance with the help of asanas. This book has remained the best guide on the subject for a long time and is now being reprinted to fulfill the constant demand from the scholars, practitioners, teachers and students alike.
