Yoga is the physical, mental, and spiritual practices or disciplines which originated in ancient time with a view to attain a state of permanent peace of mind in order to experience one's true self. It is the art and science of systematically observing, accepting, understanding, and training each of the levels of our being, such that we may coordinate and integrate those aspects of ourselves, and dwell in the direct experience of the center of consciousness.
