Yoga means different things to different people because it encompasses various aspects that affect individual life. It has been accepted widely as complete holistic formula for health, wellness and stress management. Yoga is a way of life and not just a physical exercise. I believe that we as Yog sadhaks are learners and should only compete with ourselves to be better and better physically, mentally and spiritually.
In this age of information explosion, there is so much material in print and electronic media on Yoga that one is lost in the maze. There are celebrity CDs, websites with films, books, television channels and mushrooming Yoga classes carrying individual styles as their own inventions.
