Yoga in the field of consciousness holds supremacy which tries to bring social harmony by understanding that one reality exists in all. Yogis through the tool of yoga, unfold the mystery of this universe and thus acquire knowledge to its minuteness. Through the sound practice of Yoga, one can attain a disease free body as well as keen intellect. Yogasikha Upanishad mentions that this body is the abode of Siva, hence, a yogi considers the body as a temple and keeps it healthy for further development of consciousness. The methods of Yoga can be pursued without recourse to dogma, and they require the same rigour as science insists - observation, experimentation, and verification by repeatable experience. Yoga can be looked upon as an experiential basis for philosophical speculations and conclusion. My blogs: http://vedic-yoga.blogspot.com
