#ashokasays Did you know 67:
Today (21-06-2015) is world Yoga Day. All of you know Yoga originated in our own country..
The word "yoga" derives from the Sanskrit root yuj ("to yoke") which means "to join" or "unite". Basically it is the "union of the individual atma (soul) with Paramatma (Supreme being), the universal soul." This can be defined as union with the Divine by integration of body, mind, and spirit.
The Bhagavad-Gita distinguishes several types of "yoga", corresponding to the duties of different nature of people. In it, Bhagwan Krishna describes the following Yogas:
Karma yoga: the yoga of "action" in the world.
Jnana yoga: the yoga of knowledge and intellectual endeavor.
Bhakti yoga: the yoga of devotion to a deity.
Raja yoga: the yoga of meditation
Yoga is an all-encompassing practice that helps to rejuvenate our body and mind. It helps us to meet our real chirpy self with great attitude and amazing energy levels. So, what are you waiting for? Wake up and embrace the magic of yoga!
