Yoga way of Life in ancient times
Got lost in modern materialistic times
Way of harmonising mind-body-spirit
Combination of breathing rhythm, postures, meditation, diet
Offers preventive, therapeutic, psychic cures
Not just an exercise, divine path for merging with universe
Age no bar, easy to practise any time
Simple mat, props, no need of hi-fi gym
Develops repulsive force towards flesh food for cellular quietness
Drops non-veg diet, avoids system irritation thru vegetarian dishes
No other stream renders benefits physical, mental and spiritual
Yoga, truly embodying Union of souls, Individual with Universal
Yoga, ancient healers gift to world, origin of India
In modern polluted world, Yoga the only healthy idea
