Seriously, tell me this isn't yoga....
Wednesday, September 1, 2010 at 11:50AM There is always this discussion about what yoga is and what kind of practice is the most yoga-ish. I've always thought that yoga is more of a "where" than a "what." In other words, a more apt question than "what is yoga?" would be "where do you get your yoga?" or even more apt, "how do you get your yoga?" Tell me this diver isn't in a type of yogic state as he crosses mental and physical boundries. Hell, in ways, he pushes the idea of what is possible further and further. Mankind bennifits from this sort of yoga.
If we practice the science of yoga, which is useful to the entire human community and which yields happiness both here and hereafter – if we practice it without fail, we will then attain physical, mental and spiritual happiness, and our minds will flood towards the Self.

In a way, the question of what is yoga should be re-phrased to: "what is the nature of yoga?"

You cannot do yoga. Yoga is your natural state. What you can do are yoga exercises, which may reveal to you where you are resisting your natural state.
