Yoga

“Yoga is an ancient art based on a harmonizing system of development for the body mind and spirit”. The word yoga is derived from the Sanskrit root ‘ Yuj’ meaning to unite and deeply indicating the union of Jeevatma (individual soul) and Paramatma (Universal Soul) . The Yoga- Sutra written by sage ‘Pathanjali’ is one of the most important texts in the age old yoga. Yoga is not confined to the practice of Assnas. Yama, Niyama, Asana, Pranayama, Prathyahara, Dharana, Dhyana, samadhy are the eight intergral parts of Yoga.

We have started a training programme in Yoga in the year 2015 under the leadership of Mr. Francis K. J.

Dr. Shimna Paul (Asst.Professor) trained Yoga through ‘Art of Living’ classes of Sri Sri Ravi Sankar.
