What is Yoga ? Yoga's information

What is Yoga ? Yoga's information.

Our senses have always been influenced by the outside world. Our mind and intellect are always immersed in the world outside. The changes of the world sometimes give us happiness and sometimes cause sorrow. Despite all the powers of science, we do not keep our happiness constant. But our ancestors have researched such a process that we can always keep the mind calm and happy. Patanjali has written this process in his yogasutra. Patanjali who did give us introduction of Yoga.Yogasutra which answers all the questions that arise in our mind for yoga.

Our first question will be 'What is Yoga?' Yoga is a process of resisting the uncontrolled actions of our mind. Yoga makes the seeker see his own form and he stabilizes the seeker in pure form. So do we live in another form? This question will also arise in your mind. Man knows the whole world, but he does not know himself because he keeps expressing himself with the view of outward desires. Actually, his mind never knows its true form. He keeps himself away from the world in the longing of the outside world. Sometimes in this form and sometimes in that form. The Yogasutra frees you from the temptation of that outside desire and brings out the true form of you.

Yoga history

Who is this Patanjali? On the basis of  limited source, we know that the sage Patanjali was a descendant of the Naga caste. He has composed three scriptures: 'Vyakaran Mahabhashya', 'Yogasutra' and 'Aryuveda Samhita'. Vyakaran Mahabhashya clears your language, the Yogasutra clears your mind and the Aryveda Samhita removes the filth of the body. If only one person has created all these three scriptures then he was an amazingly influential person. Perhaps Patanjali was the only one in the history of mankind who made pure science of the mysteries of consciousness.

Ayurveda corrects the diseases of the body, in the same way, yoga makes the mind healthy by treating sickness and sorrow. There are four chapters in the Yogasutra. The first chapter is Samadhipada. The common man should start yoga with the second chapter means. Here the eight limbs of yoga are explained sequentially. It calls Ashtanga yoga  Which is like this (1) Yama (2) Niyam (3) Asana (4) Pranayama (5) Pratyahara (6) Dharana (7) Dhyan (8) Samadhi. Yama consists of five: - Ahinsa, Satya, Astaya, Aparigrah and Brahmacharya. The Niyama are also five: - Shoach, Santosh, Tap, self-study and Ishwar. Yoga is based on existence, experience and experiments rather than on divine belief. The seeker has to sit in the posture after confining and regularizing his daily work with Yama and Niyam. Yoga Asana is a comfortable and pleasant state of the body in which the body should not be moved. The asana strengthens the body of the seeker. When the body is stabilized by the posture, then the method of regularizing and subtleting the breath is called Pranayama. Pranayama removes the dirt of the mind and flows the purity of consciousness. After Pranayama, an effort is made to divert the mind from outside subjects. Because mind is always entrenched outside subjects tied to smell, touch, word and form. When at some point the mind stops and stops, it is called dharana. Any shape or formless subject and ideas are prepared for dharana. Dharana becomes long and becomes meditation. And when the meditation position increases and becomes stable then the seeker attains samadhi. Samadhi can be called pure and stable state of human existence.

 Today, Asana and Pranayama are considered as yoga. By doing asanas and pranayam, people think that they have done yoga, but asanas and pranayam are just two steps of yoga. The purpose of yoga is not just to achieve health, but to go beyond that and to know the nature inside us. So that we can achieve complete and steady happiness.
