GENERAL ARTICLE
YOGA
In today’s world, the very word and concept of Yoga is greatly misunderstood – Yoga can be used for fitness, toning of the muscles, balancing, relaxation and rejuvenation, as these are some of its beautiful effects, but it’s true purpose is far beyond that. Before diving into the topic of the true purpose of Yoga, let us briefly look into its history and the rich tradition that brought it forward to the present day.
BRIEF HISTORY OF YOGA
The word Yoga comes from Sanskrit ‘yug’, meaning to yoke, join, connect or unite – to unite with our Higher Self. Yoga can also mean “to attain what was previously unattainable” or “to cause change”.
The forefathers of Yoga were spiritual explorers/inner scientists, in search of the secrets of a healthy and truly happy life. These sages did not set out to put their bodies into pretzel positions or stand on their head. They were fueled by the idea that life has something deeper and more meaningful to offer if one is able to tune in to the soul’s purpose. While spending lengths of time in meditation and through careful observation of the ways of nature, they realized that sincere inner exploration is not easy. To start with, one needs a strong and supple body and sharp mental focus in order to prepare oneself for the dive within and deep inner cleansing. The complex system of postures and techniques that we now call Hatha Yoga was born from this observation. This goes to say that all the stretching and movement one does in Yoga was originally designed to prepare the practitioner to sit still and dive deep within effectively and effortlessly.
“Yogas chitta vritti nirodhah” is Patanjali’s famous definition of Yoga. In short, it means, “Yoga is the removal of the fluctuations of the mind”.
Chitta is mind, vrittis are thought impulses, nirodah is removal.
Although nobody can own Yoga, Patanjali is known as ‘the father of Yoga’ because he was the first to codify various Yoga teachings around 300 B.C. Throughout the centuries, yogis practiced intense and methodical investigation into their minds and looked deep within themselves to find the answers to life’s most pertinent questions. All in all, the Yoga that we get to practice today stems from an unimaginably rich tradition.
BENEFITS
The benefits of Yoga are many. Yoga provides both, instant gratification and lasting transformation. True Yoga practice incorporates awareness in the practice of asanas (Sanskrit word meaning ‘steady pose’), pranayama breathing techniques, meditation and mantras. Moreover, it also teaches us how to incorporate awareness and purity at the level of thoughts, words and actions and assume responsibility for creating our own reality.
Yoga is much more than an exercise. The practice of Yoga allows students to achieve stillness in a world engrossed in chaos and to tap into the consciousness of the ‘inner witness’, the operating mode of our soul. In other words, Yoga students gradually learn how to rise above the pull of mind, emotions, and lower bodily needs and face any challenge of life with maturity. This lasting transformation is the promise of Yoga to all sincere practitioners.
DO YOU KNOW???
Right, gang, it’s time to take a look at a bit freaky facts!
1. The word “muscle” comes from Latin term meaning “little mouse“, which is what Ancient Romans thought flexed bicep muscles resembled
.
2. *You would feel weightless at the centre of the Earth :* Hypothetically, if you dug a tunnel from one side of the Earth to the other and jump in, you would accelerate toward the centre, reaching a speed of around 7,900 metres (25,919 feet) per second. In the centre, you would be momentarily weightless, but inertia would continue to carry you through the tunnel. You would then decelerate as you exited, emerging from the other end 42 minutes later.
3. Scientists estimate that the nose can recognise a trillion different scents!
4. The first living creatures to fly in a hot-air balloon were a sheep, a cockerel and a duck, sent up by the Mongolfier brothers in September 1783. All survived, but the cockerel broke a wing, probably from being kicked by the sheep.
5. According to Oxford English Dictionary, the longest word in the English language is 'pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanokoniosis' which refers to a lung disease.

ANSWERS OF LAST WEEK
1. Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Let the number be x.
Then, 1/3 of 1 /4 of x = 15x = 15 x 3 x 4 = 180.
So, required number = 3/10 x 180 = 54.
2. Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Let the ten's and unit digit be x and 8/x respectively.
Then, 10x +8/x+ 18 = 10 x 8/x+ x
10x^2+ 8 + 18x = 80 + x^2
9x^2 + 18x - 72 = 0
x^2+ 2x - 8 = 0
(x + 4)(x - 2) = 0
x = 2.
3. Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Since the number is greater than the number obtained on reversing the digits, so the ten's digit is greater than the unit's digit.
Let ten's and unit's digits be 2x and x respectively.
Then, (10 x 2x + x) - (10x + 2x) = 36
9x = 36
x = 4.
Required difference = (2x + x) - (2x - x) = 2x = 8.
4. Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Let the ten's digit be x and unit's digit be y.
Then, (10x + y) - (10y + x) = 36
9(x - y) = 36
x - y = 4.
