Abstract: What is Yoga? How is Self-realization achieved through Yoga? The great Sage Pātañjali (3rd Century B.C.) defined yoga in the Yoga-Sūtras as “the restraint of the modifications of the mind” (yogaś-citta-vritti-nirodah). In his Yoga-Sūtras (196 sutras), Pātañjali systematically laid down the exact methods and techniques for attaining Self-realization through the Eight Limbs of Pātañjali’s Yoga (Ashtānga-yoga). This system is commonly known as Rāja-yoga (Royal yoga). This Eight Steps is the way to attain self-transcendence. It consists of yama, niyama, āsanas, prānāyāma, pratyāhāra, dhāranā, dhyāna and samādhi. This article will focus on Ashtānga-yoga in the practical and philosophical contexts. Other systems of yoga also use this Eight Steps, but each yoga may start from and emphasize different aspects of yoga. However all systems of yoga accept and practice the Eight Steps of yoga to achieve the final goal, that is liberation (kaivalya, moksha, mukti). Yoga also reconciles the six systems of Indian Philosophy (Shadh Darśana). Keywords: Rāja-yoga (Royal yoga), Hatha-yoga (Hard yoga), Bhakti-yoga (Yoga of Devotion), Jñāna-yoga (Yoga of Knowledge), Ashtānga-yoga (Eight limbs of Yoga), Citta-vritti-nirodha (Restraint of modification of the mind), Purusha (Spirit), Prakriti (Matter), Iśvara-pranidhāna (Surrender to God), Moksha (Liberation).

Abstract:
Yoga mahiyyətinə görə vahid bir həyat üçün bədən, nəfəs, ağıl, ürək və ruh arasında harmoniya təşkilinə yönəlmiş bir mənəvi nizamdır. Özü və başqaları ilə sağlam, dinc və ahəngdar bir şəkildə yaşamaq elmidir. Yoga təcrübəsi, fərdi şüurun Universal Şüurla birləşməsinə səbəb olur. Bu, ağıl və bədən, insan və təbiət arasında mükəmməl bir ahəng olduğunu göstərir. Yoqanın əsas məqsədi özünü aktuallaşdırmaq və özünü həyata keçirməkdir. Yoqa həmin fəlsəfi sistemi icad edən və onu bu cür adlandıran hindu müdrikləri tərəfindən yaradılmış 5 min yaşlı Hindistan təlimidir. Yoqa bədən və yaddaşı təkmilləşdirən və həyat tərzinə çevrilən metod kimi anlaşılmalıdır. Yoga təkcə fəlsəfə deyil! Bu həm də bir intizamdır, Bədən, Ağıl, Duyğu və Enerji uyğunlaşdırmaq üçün praktik bir vasitədir. Yoga ancaq fəlsəfə, bu düşünə biləcəyiniz şey deyil, o, birinin yaşamalı və olmalı olduğu bir şeydir. Yoga həyatımızın kökləri ilə ümumi varlığımızdan narahatdır. Yoqa bir kitab deyil, yoqa intizamdır. Bu heç din də deyil,yoqa riyaziyyat, fizika və ya kimya kimi bütün insanlığa qərəzsiz xid-mət edən saf bir elm, eyni şəkildə daxili varlığın təmiz bir elmi və riyaziyyatıdır.

Abstract:
In today’s mechanical world, there is no use of learning some of the exercises only in the name of yoga. According to Tirumoolar, yoga is the purification of the body, mind, action and wound. The yoga practice that encompasses this concept is offered as Attanga Yoga in Thirumanthiram. The human soul has bounded knowledge where the Thiruvarul is performing as instrument to practice Attanga Yoga. According to Thirumoolar, Attaining Attamasithi through Attanga Yoga is not the completion of practicing yoga; Attaining seevanmuthan stage is the final stage where yogis can feel fulfillment through Ataanga Yoga. The soul gets the superior birth as human being through it’s benevolence of previous birth. By the grace of god, soul attains Iruvinaioppu, Malaparipakam and Thiruvarulvizhchi. In that improved stage, Thiruvarul exists as Gnanaguru and leads the soul to Attanga Yoga and the Thava Yoga. This practice also called as Raja-yogam. Through the practice of Attanga Yoga, soul attains the Attama sithis and realizes that the Thiruvarul is the part of Sivam. As Thiruvarul incorporates in sivam, the soul will realize it’s incorporation in sivam with limitless knowledge. This consciousness helps the soul to have strong bonding with siva. The attitude expresses the blissful movement of the soul. This experience stated as Siva-Gnana-yogam. Thus this article explains the virtues of attaining the bliss of living, Sivanupavam, through the path of Thirumanthiram.

Abstract:
Background: Health is the major concern of each and every individual. Being fit both physically and mentally is not an easy task. Yoga and meditation is considered as an optimal solution for the same. In Yoga, Yogi (person who does yoga) performs various asanas (body postures) which energize and refresh their body cells and keep them fit. The real purpose of yoga asanas and breathing techniques is to achieve optimal health possibly the best physical condition based on their life style, environment, age and genetics. Various clinical studies claim that yoga can provide improved mental and physical fitness rather than other physical training or stress management techniques. Objective: Our aim is to increase the performance of the postures of the Yogis, through yoga assistant kit with prediction intelligence which will assist the person to perform suitable yoga postures. This will help the Yogis to achieve more positive results in the practice of Yoga, with highest quality of meditation. The developed IoT kit consists of a hardware module (embedded in wrist band) and a mobile application. The yogi should wear the wrist band while practising yoga. The wrist band consists of various sensors like temperature sensor, pressure sensor, humidity sensor etc. which sense body parameters and store it in a central database. Using neural networks and embedded intelligence our system aims to predict the number of sun salutations a person (yogi) should perform based on the parameters collected from the kit. The results showed that our system works as a virtual trainer which suggests the yogi with the appropriate asanas to be performed based on present body conditions. Methods: It is safe to wear this light weight wrist band as it is made up of a cotton band. The components are embedded inside the band and is safe to use though it uses button cells as a power source. The system is charged by button cells. It is both economical and safe to use it as the kit is designed in such a manner that it doesn’t cause any sort of skin allergies or side effects. </P><P> Discussion: There is no standard yoga assistant kit available in the market as of now. So our proposed kit can assist the yoga performers to perform yoga in an efficient manner. The intention of our kit is not to improve the health of a yoga person instead it focuses on assisting the yoga person with a set of asanas to be performed at a particular body condition. The smart phone version provides live assistance for the yoga performer with relevant videos. The kit doesn’t consist of any expensive components and hence we can market this product in a nominal price. We performed a clinical study in Amrutha Yoga centre and the results showed that it is non allergic and safe to use for both kids and elder persons. Conclusion: Thus our proposed yoga kit will be an intelligent assistant for every yoga performer to practice yoga efficiently and effectively.

Abstract:
<p><em>Yoga is a way to connect oneself to God. The term ‘yoga’ can be found in various sruti and smerti texts. Specifically, yoga is described in Indian philosophy (darsana), otherwise known as the yoga sutras composed by Maharsi Patanjali. Patanjali's teachings emphasize devotion to God (Isvara). Only by Bhakti can Yogis (one who practice the discipline of yoga) attain eternal happiness free from any disease or suffering (klesa). Patanjali systematically compiles the discipline that must be carried out by Yogis, namely by implementing the Astanga Yoga discipline which emphasizes Bhakti to God by reciting the holy script OM as a symbol of God in the form of Nirguna Brahman. This can be achieved through Raja yoga which is divided into two parts. First, bahiranga includes Yama, niyama, Asana, Pranayama and pratyahara. This is called indirect or external help. Second, antaranga includes Dharana, Dhyana and Samadhi, namely direct help from within.</em></p><p><em>Yoga adalah jalan untuk menghubungkan diri kepada Tuhan, kata yoga dapat ditemukan di berbagai teks sruti maupun smerti. Secara spesifik yoga dijelaskan dalam filsafat India (darsana), atau dikenal dengan yoga sutra yang disusun oleh Maharsi Patanjali. Ajaran Patanjali menekankan tentang Bhakti kepada Tuhan (Isvara). Hanya dengan Bhakti para Yogi (seseorang yang menjalankan disiplin yoga) dapat mencapai kebahagiaan abadi yang tidak terikat dari segala penyakit atau penderitaan (klesa). Patanjali menyusun secara sistematis tentang disiplin yang harus dilakukan oleh para Yogi, yaitu dengan melaksanakan disiplin Astanga Yoga yang di dalamnya menekankan Bhakti kepada Tuhan dengan mengucapkan aksara suci OM sebagai simbol Tuhan dalam wujud Nirguna Brahman. Hal tersebut dapat ditempuh melalui Raja yoga yang dibagi menjadi dua bagian. Pertama, bahiranga meliputi Yama, niyama, Asana, Pranayama dan pratyahara. Ini disebut pertolongan-pertolongan yang tak langsung atau yang datang dari luar. Kedua, antaranga meliputi Dharana, Dhyana dan Samadhi, yakni pertolongan-pertolongan langsung dari dalam.</em></p>

Abstract:
Traditional Yoga practices have been mentioned since the era of Indus Valley Civilization, Vedic & Upanishad heritage, Buddhist and Jain traditions. Shiva is regarded as the first yogi in ancient Yoga tradition. The science of Yoga has been traced since long before the first religions or belief systems were born. At that time Yoga was practiced under the influence of nature under the guidance of the Gurus and its spiritual value was given special importance. In ancient times Yoga was known only for its spirituality to achieve highest level of consciousness. Today Yoga is not meant for spirituality only but it acquires the wider dimension by inculcating physical, mental and social aspect of health of healthy person. Newer evidence shows that Yogic Practices are gaining momentum for its therapeutic application for the management of health related issues of body and mind. Now-a-days Yoga education and its practices are being impacted by many eminent Yoga clinics, Yoga therapy and Wellness centers that have been established, medical institutes and therapeutic setups. People take up Yoga practice to maintain their health and lifestyle

Abstract:
Abstract Integral education is poised to become a unifying principle for global higher education that is suffering from fragmentation and disconnection from the essence of being human. Integral education does everything that conventional education does, and also categorically more by integrating multiple domains of learning and growth. Integral education can identify its roots with Integral Yoga and the integral philosophy developed contemporaneously by Sivananda and Aurobindo as a grand synthesis of all psychospiritual practices and theories, both Eastern and Western. These common roots can be traced in a direct line to two institutions founded specifically for integral education in the U.S.: the California Institute of Integral Studies (ciis) founded by Haridas Chaudhuri and also to the California Institute for Human Science (cihs) founded by Hiroshi Motoyama. Although the founders independently developed their philosophies of integral education, they identified their roots in the Aurobindo-Sivananda Integral Yoga synthesis. Motoyama was a realized yogi as well as an educator and scientist. The educational and operational principles by which he founded cihs included the practice of methods for embodied psychospiritual growth. (All such methods are called “yogas” in the Vedanta tradition.) Although Motoyama developed his philosophy independently, his yoga roots mesh with those of Sri Aurobindo’s Integral Yoga which is commonly thought of as the origin of integral education in the West. Moreover, Motoyama approved of Aurobindo’s educational approach (Timothy Laporte, private communication).

Abstract:
This study unearths 20th-century U.S. music histories to demonstrate that racism accompanied the entry of yoga into American “belonging” and domestication, while “Indians” were excluded. There are three yoga song sites in this study; each presents a composite of racial constructions that utilize Othering tropes long deployed to affirm White supremacy and legitimize colonial power. I analyze the sound world, lyrics, and films of (1) the 1941 popular song “The Yogi Who Lost His Will Power,” by Orrin Tucker and His Orchestra; (2) the 1960 chart-topper “Yogi,” which catapulted the Ivy Three to one-hit-wonder status; and, (3) the 1967 Elvis Presley song “Yoga Is as Yoga Does, ” from the movie Easy Come, Easy Go. Questions that guide this study include: How does racist displacement appear in historic contexts of sonic productions and U.S. proliferation in yoga? What racial stereotypes accompanied yoga’s entry into American cultural discourse? I argue the evidence supports three key findings: (1) yoga’s movement into American popular culture is inextricably tied to racism and Othering; (2) widely circulating stereotypes of Indians, yoga, and yogis in American popular music include classic racist tropes, such as the grinning Sambo, and (3) the logic of elimination operates to hide U.S. music histories of racialized yoga. I conclude that U.S. yoga and its musical and cultural productions, branded as peaceful and flexible, camouflage the settler nation and White supremacy. The article concludes with a forecast for the importance of music studies to the nascent field of critical yoga studies.

Este trabalho traz uma análise do significado da experiência corporal de um grupo de praticantes de Hatha Yoga na cidade de Florianópolis. A partir da trajetória pessoal e dos ensinamentos de um instrutor aos seus alunos de um curso de formação, observo a construção de uma visão de mundo individualizante construída a partir do corpo. Dentro desse contexto, associei a visão de mundo yogi e a sua disseminação no ocidente ao que Dumont chamou de individualismo romântico. Denominei como busca romântica moderna o discurso de #resgate da tradição#, de retorno à essência, presente dentro do contexto yogi estudado. Discurso que é construído a partir de uma crítica ao #yoga físico# e alicerçado na visão de mundo do Vedanta. Esse trabalho contribui para as reflexões antropológicas acerca da representação do corpo e da formação do sujeito na contemporaneidade, bem como ajuda a repensarmos os estudos sobre o campo alternativo. This study brings an analyses of the corporal meaning of being an yogi. By the personal itinerary and the teachings of an Yoga teacher and his students, I observed an world view centered in the self and built always in reference to the body. In this context, I associated the yogi world view with that Dumont called romantic individualism. I named as modern romantic search the speech of the reviving #tradition#. Speech which is built against a body centered Yoga. This work may contribute to anthropologic studies about representation of the body and to the new age cam of studies.

Abstract:

Syfte och frågeställningar

Syftet är att undersöka yoga och dess förhållande till hälsa ur ett fysiskt, psykiskt och själsligt perspektiv.

Frågeställningarna är:

- Hur beskrivs vägen mot tillståndet yoga enligt YogaSutras utifrån ett fysiskt, psykiskt och själsligt perspektiv?

- Hur beskrivs tillståndet yoga enligt YogaSutras utifrån ett fysiskt, psykiskt och själsligt perspektiv?

- På vilket sätt förhåller sig yoga enligt YogaSutras till hälsa utifrån ett fysiskt, psykiskt och själsligt perspektiv?

Metod

Metoden består av en textanalys ur en innehållsaspekt. Boken som används heter YogaSutras är skriven på sanskrit och översatt till engelska. Texten har bearbetats genom meningskoncentration och kategoriseras utifrån perspektiven fysiskt, psykiskt och själsligt, som en del utav det övergripande begreppet hälsa. Resultaten har sedan analyserat med stöd av Katie Erikssons hälsoteori.

Resultat

Resultatet visar att YogaSutras beskriver olika metoder och tekniker som individen kan utföra på vägen mot det slutgiltiga tillståndet yoga. Dessa innefattar fysiska, psyksiska och själsliga perspektiv. De tre perspektiven sker också i samverkan av varandra. I det slutgiltiga tillståndet yoga är de tre perspektiven integrerade. Detta överstämmer väl med Erikssons definition av hälsobegreppet.

Slutsats

Det står det klart att det finns minst ett förhållande mellan yoga och hälsa, vilket är att yoga bidrar till hälsa hos individen. Detta får även stöd av presenterad forskning. Det slutgiltiga tillståndet yoga kan även anses vara jämförbart med det optimala hälsotillståndet, eftersom tillstånden överensstämmer med varandra.

Abstract:
Scientific research is just beginning to empirically prove what people who practice somatic disciplines have known for years. In this thesis, I theorize that it is possible to combine yoga and somatics with modern research into the mind and body in a manner that could facilitate healing in a holistic, beneficial manner. There is an indisputable relationship between a person's overall physical and mental health. The practice of yoga strives to facilitate both physical and mental health, in addition to inner peace and well-being. By identifying similarities between the teachings of yoga and modern kinesthetic research, it is possible to gain a better understanding of why and how yoga makes practitioners feel better.

Resumo: Yoga é uma das seis escolas filosóficas da Índia e neste texto é entendido como um caminho, uma filosofia de vida amparada por princípios técnicos, filosóficos e éticos. Nas últimas décadas, foi possível observar o aumento do número de praticantes e de cursos especializados para a formação de professores de yoga. O caráter recente, somada a falta de institucionalização desta profissão, torna estes professores um grupo ainda pouco estudado. Diante deste cenário, o objetivo desta pesquisa foi investigar a trajetória destes profissionais, assim como as implicações desta escolha na vida destes sujeitos. Para isso, foi realizada uma pesquisa qualitativa a qual utilizou entrevistas semi-estruturadas para investigar a trajetória de doze professores de yoga da cidade de Campinas. As entrevistas foram transcritas e a análise dos dados foi realizada com o auxílio de um modelo de análise de trajetória construído a partir da revisão sistemática da literatura. Os discursos indicaram que o envolvimento com o yoga acarreta rupturas em diversas dimensões da vida. Sugerem ainda que o alicerce desta escolha profissional esteja além do retorno financeiro ou da estabilidade profissional, e surge como uma forma de satisfazer necessidades ontológicas do ser. (Esta pesquisa contou com o auxílio financeiro da CAPES).
Abstract: Yoga is one of the six philosophical schools of India and in this text is understood as a path, a life's philosophy supported by ethics, philosophical and technical principles. At recent decades, an increase in the number of practitioners have been observed and also the development of many Yoga teachers' courses. The recent condition of this new profession makes these teachers a group that needs to be studied. In this circumstance, the goal of this research was to investigate these professional's trajectory, as well as the life's implications of this professional path. To achieve this goal, a qualitative research was conducted in which semi-structured interviews were used to investigate the trajectory of twelve yoga's teachers of Campinas city. The interviews were transcribed and the data's analysis was done with the support of an analysis' trajectory model constructed through the systematic literature review. These speeches demonstrated that this professional choice leads to disruptions on several life's aspects. They also suggest that the basis of this career choice is beyond the financial return or professional stability, and stand as a way to satisfy ontological needs. (This research had financial support from CAPES).

Abstract:
In this dissertation, I am in conversation with the following questions: How can individuals and communities teach and learn to engage more peacefully, nonviolently, and compassionately with each other? Further, how can one practice a style of communication that helps at least one person suffer less each day? In asking these questions, my goal has been to imagine as well as attempt to actualize a world where individuals and communities work together to create less suffering in each other's lives by first developing compassionate awareness of our interconnectedness, then "waking up" not only to our own divinity but also to that place in all of us where the entire universe dwells. In this dissertation, communication is situated as both a spiritual practice and as a practice of yoga. To illuminate this notion, I have sequenced this text as a yoga practice in and of itself, employing Shiva Rea's "wave methodology" to introduce and support the peak purpose of this text -communication as yoga - via svadhyaya, or self-study, as a path to expand relational awareness through everyday small acts or micropractices. Communication, thus, becomes an emergent process based in yoga philosophy and practice wherein one learns to acknowledge and take responsibility for one's interactions with others and other realities by recognizing one's shared vulnerability. To heighten this awareness, this text includes 108 asanas or micropractices, which serve to explore my guiding questions as well as exemplify communication as yoga - as an everyday practice.

Abstract:
Barn mår bra av att leka och röra på sig men i dagens samhälle använder man teknisk utrustning i allt större omfattning både inom hemmet och i skolan. Detta medför olika negativa effekter så som koncentrationssvårigheter och övervikt. Undersökningar och studier visar också att barn och unga upplever stress i vardagen på grund av krav från skolan, hemmet och sig själva.   Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka förskolepedagogers upplevelser av yoga bland barn. De som valts ut att delta i studien är pedagoger på en förskola där yoga är en del i förskolans program. Telefonintervjuer har genomförts med tre av förskolans pedagoger. Resultaten visar på att förskolepedagogerna upplever att yoga har en lugnande effekt på barnen och barngrupperna upplevs harmoniska. Barnen upplevs även känna förståelse och empati för varandra samt att de kan sätta gränser. Dock uppger pedagogerna att dessa upplevelser kan vara en indirekt påverkan från pedagogernas beteende bland barnen samt att effekterna kan komma av andra orsaker än från yogan. Slutsatserna blir att förskolepedagogerna i denna studie upplever att yoga har positiv effekt på barn i förskoleålder men det krävs mer forskning inom området.

Abstract:
This thesis investigates the nature of ‘the self’ modern yoga practitioners cultivate. This ontological question is further divided into three sub-questions to find the answer stepby- step. They are: (1) How yoga practice influences practitioners' health and wellbeing; (2) How yoga practice influences the management of life crises; (3) How yoga practice influences the ‘sense of self’. Modern yoga in the West has been expanding rapidly after the Second World War, and the last 15 years in particular show an exponential growth. Although the numbers are hard to estimate, there were reportedly over 2.5 million practitioners in Britain alone in 2004 (Singleton, 2008). Similar numbers of yoga practitioners were reported in other countries (Strauss, 2004). However, the modern form of yoga practiced in Britain is not the same as the Indian traditional form of yoga. In Britain, the British Wheel of Yoga (BWY) officially represents the majority of the yoga population. This study has used hermeneutic phenomenology, chiefly that of Heidegger and of Merleau-Ponty, as a research methodology, because it enabled the researcher to understand the subjective lived experiences of modern yoga practitioners. For data collection, 15 in-depth interviews of BWY members, selected using the snowballing and theoretical methods, were carried out. Through analysis, six major themes emerged. They were: ‘Health and Well being’; ‘Management of Life Crises’; ‘Sense of Self and Yoga Development’; ‘CAMs & GPs’; ‘Relationships’; ‘Spirituality’. Following the analysis of the main themes, I explored the meaning of ‘the self’, and discussed it from two points of view: the inner-self arisen from embodied practice of yoga through relaxation and bodily proprioception, and the outer self situated in-theworld in relation with other people, which was captured as social self, and considered from various dimensions such as language and ideology, BWY lineage, globalization and commercialism. In a nutshell, this study found that ‘the self’ for the BWY practitioners was embodied, health orientated and secular. ‘The self’ of yoga was further compared and contrasted with four self development models: Patanjali’s Yoga Sutra; Maslow’s Hierarchy of Human Needs; Dreyfus/Merleau-Ponty’s Skill Acquisition model and The Ten Oxherding Pictures of Zen Buddhism. Lastly, the value of yoga for public health was explored using the anthropological idea of dis-ease. This study found that yoga’s therapeutic usefulness mainly came from ‘empowerment’, providing practitioners with yoga skills to take control of their own body and health.

Abstract:
The purpose of this survey is to gain an insight into preschool children´s experience of yoga at the preschool. To investigate this semistructured interviews with seven children in one and the same preschool have been conducted. The result shows that the children´s perception of yoga is that yoga is something you do with your body and that yoga is good for your body. The result also shows that the children experience yoga as both a physical experience and as a sensational experience.
Syftet med denna studie var att få en inblick i förskolebarns upplevelse av yoga på förskolan. För att undersöka detta har semistrukturerade intervjuer med sju barn på en och samma förskola genomförts. Resultatet visar att barnens uppfattning av yoga är att yoga är något man gör med kroppen och att yoga är bra för kroppen. Resultatet visar också att barnen upplever yoga både som en fysisk upplevelse och som en sinnesupplevelse.
