Yoga is a science of the body mind and breath to aid meditation, leading to self-realisation. Yoga comes from the Sanskrit term for union, whence we get the English word 'yoke', to link things together. Whereas yoga is seen often as a type of sport or fitness experience, its origins are in meditation and self-knowledge. Whatever your religious, spiritual or philosophical preferences and experiences, yoga is intended as a practice that helps create harmony and deeper understanding of the relationship between body, mind and spirit. Read more A steady yoga practice can help us deal with stress, life challenges, our sense of purpose and self-worth, and provide an opportunity to commune with life and higher energy - if that is what we seek. The aim of BMB Yoga is to provide access to a holistic yoga practice for the people of Cape Town and Durban, open to our own cultural and religious diversity. Definition of Yogam and Yoga We have chosen the Sanskrit word ‘Yogam’ to describe our Yoga because it is loaded with meaning. Amongst other definitions, Yogam can mean the following and demonstrates the ethos of Yogam Yoga: Self-Realisation Bg 2.53, Bg 7.1 Is our ultimate aim to discover our true self (atman), which is not the mind or the body, and thereby real yoga or union takes place between us and our own understanding of infinite consciousness. Yoga SB 3.33.35, SB 4.1.49-52, Bg 6.11-12 The word 'Yoga' come from the Sanskrit root 'Yuj', meaning 'to join' or 'to yoke' or 'to unite'. As per yogic scriptures the practice of Yoga leads to the union of individual consciousness with that of the universal Consciousness, indicating a perfect harmony between the mind and body, man and nature. Science of one’s relationship to the Supreme Bg 4.1 Yoga has no religious affiliation. In fact, in the Sutras of Patanjali (seen as the definitive text of yoga written over 2500 years ago, there is one reference to God. Patanjali states that ‘Ishvara pranidhana’ is the last of the Niyamas or the duties directed towards ourselves - inner observances. Ishvara refers to all-pervading consciousness; pranidhana means to surrender. Together, these words may be translated as ‘trustful surrender to God’. This niyama is not a process of defeat or of mindlessly submitting to another’s will. It is the act of giving ourselves to a higher purpose. The eightfold yoga system Bg 6.3 Ashtanga yoga or raja yoga is the 8-step yoga system is Patanjali's classification of yoga, as set out in his Yoga Sutras. He defined Update description
