In the Bhagavad-Gita, there is a saying that ?A person is generally said to have achieved yoga, the union with the Self, when the perfectly disciplined mind achieves freedom from all desires, and becomes absorbed in the Self alone.? Today, there would be hardly someone who is not aware about the significant and amazing benefits of Yoga. It was the Prime Minister, Narendra Modi who gave the proposal to observe this day as International Yoga Day. Yoga is one of the ways to grow into a better human being with a sharp mind along with a good heart and a relaxed soul.
