The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali
Description:
Yoga is a practice is that is ancient in its very nature. We do not know how old the yoga is but the earliest records can be found in the Form of Pashupati Seal which is estimated to be five thousand years old. The deity on the seal can be seen doing the Mulbandhaasana which is an advance Yoga posture. This claims the question how old Yoga is. The timeless treasure of human history, Yoga in Sanskrit means to join or to combine. To know that the witness the seer is one watcher; or Purusha, is the key to enlightenment. Yoga is a philosophy of discrimination between consciousness and that which is matter. To see them in unison is to witness the realm of the phenomenal world and to see them as sperate is to see the transcendental beyond.
