The word is associated with meditative practices in Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism. Within Hinduism, it also refers to one of the six orthodox (āstika) schools of Hindu philosophy, and to the goal towards which that school directs its practices. In Jainism, yoga is the sum total of all activities — mental, verbal and physical. Major branches of yoga in Hindu philosophy include Rāja Yoga, Karma Yoga, Jnana Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, and Hatha Yoga. According to the authoritative Indian philosopher Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, yoga, based on the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, comprises one of the six main Hindu schools of philosophy (darshanas), together with Kapila's Samkhya, Gautama's Nyaya, Kanada's Vaisheshika, Jaimini's Purva Mimamsa, and Badarayana's Uttara Mimamsa or Vedanta. Many other Hindu texts discuss aspects of yoga, including the Upanishads, the Bhagavad Gita, the Hatha Yoga Pradipika, the Shiva Samhita and various Tantras. The Sanskrit word yoga has many meanings, and is derived from the Sanskrit root "yuj", meaning "to control", "to yoke" or "to unite". Translations include "joining", "uniting", "union", "conjunction", and "means". It is also possible that the word yoga derives from "yujir samadhau," which means "contemplation" or "absorption." This translation fits better with the dualist Raja Yoga because it is through contemplation that discrimination between prakrti (nature) and purusha (pure consciousness) occurs. Someone who practices yoga or follows the yoga philosophy to a high level of attainment is called a yogi or yogini. From Wikipedia under the

Q. I am going to begin taking a Yoga class today. I want to know a bit about how Yoga is beneficial to the mind and body. I know each person is different so your personal experience with Yoga would help. Asked by Christy - Wed Aug 16 14:16:39 2006 - - 6 Answers - 0 Comments A. For the mind it opens up your awareness of your body and self. You learn how to control yourself through the methods that you're taught and you can incorporate its concept to life. There are all kinds of teachers and classes so I can't say what you'll take away from it but there is a whole spectrum of things that yoga does to help you enrich your lifestyle and help you feel good about yourself. Your body simply follows the well-being of the mind so if you really stretch your limits you will have that perfect form that you achieve for all the while maximizing your thinking power. Answered by B-Truth - Wed Aug 16 15:05:02 2006 How long should I devote to yoga within one day? Q. I am beginning to start doing yoga at home. How long should I preform it per session? And is yoga something that is done everyday of the week? Asked by foolycooly288622 - Thu Oct 15 22:43:03 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. Yes, Yoga should be done everyday of the week. You should devote at least 10-15 minutes to yoga everyday. And if it can be done in the morning between 6am to 7am than it is very good and you will be able to experience recreation given by it in this very time the most . If you are not able to do yoga daily then you can practice it on as much days as possible. Answered by Sajal - Fri Oct 16 22:07:22 2009 Can yoga be done the same day as a work out?
Q. I am planning on shaping my body. I am already in very good shape and just need to tone up. I figure I can do my daily workout plan which has worked in the past with some possible light yoga to increase flexibility. If this can be done, should I do the workout than yoga or vice versa. Any tips,help would be appreciated since I plan on carrying this out and am very serious. Thanks. Asked by Adam - Fri Jan 22 23:43:40 2010 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. Yoga can be definitely done on the same day as your work out but please see that you do not get tired out. This is usually the case with many people, meantime yoga should be done first followed by your workout which is the cardinal rule and you should follow it explicitly. Good luck and God bless.
