YOGA - THE EXERCISE TO THE SOUL.

Without love, our efforts to liberate ourselves and our world community from oppression and exploitation are doomed. As long as we refuse to address fully the place of love in struggles for liberation we will not be able to create a culture of conversion where there is a mass turning away from an ethic of miseducation.

The Essence of Yoga

The true essence of yoga revolves around elevating the life force at the base of the spine. It aims to achieve this through a series of physical and mental exercises. At the physical level, the methods comprise various yoga postures that aim to keep the body healthy. The mental techniques include breathing exercises and meditation or 'dhyana' to discipline the mind.

"Yoga accepts. Yoga gives." -
The ultimate goal of yoga is, however, to help the individual to transcend the self and attain enlightenment. As the EMODI ONYEBUCHI says, "A person is said to have achieved yoga, the union with the Self, when the perfectly disciplined mind gets freedom from all desires, and becomes absorbed in the Self alone."
