tension-free world

Correct branding is essential to project oneself in public life. And Prime Minister Narendra Modi is a master when it comes to marketing himself. Along with his friend Ramdev, the PM has managed to position himself as the champion for the cause of Yoga, India's oldest cultural heritage and largest export.
One of my most favourite books is Patanjali's Yoga Sutra. What makes Patanjali unique is that he is absolutely scientific. He never assumes and he never denies. Patanjali says God is one of the many ways to reach the ultimate. But it is not necessary to believe in God to reach your destination. God is a path. Some may choose that path, others may choose another. The path is not important, the goal is. God is just one of the paths.
Yoga is a science. It is neither theistic nor atheistic. And Patanjali did not create a religious ritual. In fact, far from it. Patanjali, like I said, earlier was absolutely scientific. In fact, he says one can be Godless.
The Yoga Sutra never insisted on a concept. Patanjali describes Yoga as 'Chitta Viriddhi Nirodha' or the opening up of the closed mind. The aim of Yoga is to reach one's true self and to reach the goal, one has to let go of biases and prejudices.
