The practice of yoga is believed to have started with the beginning of civilization. The science of yoga originated thousands of years ago. In Yoga Vidya, 'Shiva' is considered to be the first Yogi or Adiyogi and the first Guru or Adi Guru. Thousands of years ago, on the banks of Lake Kantisarovar in the Himalayas, Adiyogi imparted his knowledge to the great Saptarishis.

The sages carried this powerful science to different parts of Asia and the world; Like-East-North Africa and South America. However, the yogic system found its full expression in India only. The presence of yoga is available in folk traditions, the Indus Valley Civilization, Vedic and Upanishadic heritage, Buddhist and Jain traditions, theistic traditions of philosophy, the epics of Mahabharata and Ramayana, Shaivite, Vaishnava and Tantric traditions. Seals and fossils dating back to the Indus-Saraswati Valley Civilization indicate the presence of yoga in India.

Sun was given the most importance in the Vedic period. Probably due to this effect, the practice of 'Surya Namaskar' was started. Yoga was prevalent in the Vedic period. The great sage Patanjali systematized and codified yoga, its contemporary practices and its related knowledge through his book Yoga Sutras.

Many saints and yoga teachers since Patanjali have made significant contributions to the preservation and development of yoga through documented practices and literature. The great sage Patanjali, through his Yoga Sutras, systematized and codified the contemporary practices of yoga, its meaning and related knowledge.

A more clear explanation of yoga is seen in the Bhagavad Gita, in which the concepts of Jnana Yoga, Karma Yoga, Bhakti Yoga have been presented in detail. These three types of yoga are still the highest examples of human knowledge. People get peace by the methods of yoga mentioned in the Gita. Yogasutra of Patanjali is very important in this context.

Published 4 renders the fundamental mysteries. problem related to knowledge has been considered. Upanishads Many philosophers of India, who were called sages It is the result of many years of serious thinking. BO AND D Yoga in the Upanishads The meaning of the word yoga is to control the mind and without control of the mind, knowledge, devotion, day-to-day good deeds etc. all become useless, hence the use of the word yoga in the Upanishads is in harmony in both the meanings. Yoga is prominently described in almost all the Upanishads for the fulfillment of this intention. in some Upanishads The importance of the medium was greatly exaggerated compared to other means. Sayujyamukti has been called the real liberation in the Upanishads. Just as this liberation is attained through Yoga and Parabhakti, in the same way it is attained through Yoga. The meaning is that the words knowledge, devotion and yoga are the signifiers of the ultimate means of attaining God. That's why they are mentioned in the Upanishads as a means of salvation. These are explained in the illustrations of different Upanishads. In the second chapter of 'Shvetashvatara Upanishad', there is a very detailed discussion of Yoga. In this, the best result of yoga has also been told and compound action is also described. The brief description of Yoga in various Upanishads is as follows like- "Gani combined eight in the exhausted breath of the nose and the breath of Sita I am as if riding a bad horse, and I am not willing to hold this learned mind. After measuring the vital force, exhale through the nostrils when it becomes pure vital air with utmost readiness. Just as a charioteer controls evil horses by pulling their reins, similarly a Yogi should restrain his mind without becoming agitated. Kathopanishad In Kathopanishad, Yamraj, while preaching to Rishikumar Nachiketa, has told about the attainment of nectar through yoga. Mundakopanishad: The importance of yoga has also been described in this Upanishad. Brihadaranyaka Upanishad: A detailed description of yoga is also found in this Upanishad. In this way, the knower, by restraining the senses and the mind, adopting the supreme attitude, being a Titikshu, becomes samadhiparayan and sees the soul within himself. Apart from this, the introduction and importance of yoga has also been described in some other Upanishads. Their short names are as follows Kaivalya Upanishad • Maitreya Sruti The Amritnada Upanishad is the Yoga Upanishad . . . . Garbhopanisad Brihajjabal: Nadabindu Upanishad Yogashikhopanisad Thus, after studying the Upanishads, it comes to the conclusion that without compound means, our altruistic tendencies remain incomplete. In the Upanishads, the many principles that are practiced as a means, can be called yoga in one way or the other; Like- Gyan Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, Mantra Yoga, Kriya Yoga, Meditation Yoga, Samadhi Yoga etc. It is to be noted that just as milk contains ghee and the child's interest is contained in the teachings of the mother, in the same way those yogas are contained. Thus, there is a close connection between the Upanishads and Yoga.

UGC NET Tutor • Yoga (Paper) Departure Trinity Shrimadbhagwadgita, Brahmasutra and Upanishads are combined into Prasthanatrayi. In ancient times in India, when a Guru or Acharya wanted to render and establish himself, he used to write commentaries on all these three for him. Adishankaracharya, Ramanuja etc. great gurus propounded their opinion only by doing this. Yoga in the Prasthanatrayi The detailed description of Prasthanatrayi is as follows Srimad Bhagavad Gita The advice given by Krishna to Arjuna on the battlefield of Kurukshetra is known as Srimad Bhagavad Gita. This is the O of the Bhishmaparva of the Mahabharata. The Gita has 18 chapters and 700 verses. There are two definitions of yoga in the Gita. From the point of view of a path of renunciation in which it is said 'samatvam yoga ucyate', that is, to have equality in the inequality of qualities is yoga. This is the position of Sankhya. The second definition of yoga is 'yogaḥ karmasu kaushalaṁ', that is, even while engaged in actions, to act in such a way that it is not the cause of bondage and the doer of action can remain in the same unattached or uncoated state. The name of this technique is Buddhiyoga and this is the essence of the yoga of the Gita. The tune of 'Tasya Prajnapratishthita', which is found in the second chapter of the Gita, is meant only by the capable intellect of unattached action. This was not a condition to attain dispassion by renunciation of action, but it was a trick to gradually mold the mind into a state of dispassion while doing work. This is the Karma Yoga of the Gita. As in many places of the Mahabharata, in the same way, in the Gita too, the explanation and praise of Sankhya's Nivruti Marga and Karma's Pravritti Marga are found. Criticizing one and praising the other is not the opinion of Gita, both ways can and are beneficial for people having two types of interest. Probably no other book in the world renders the scriptures of Karma with beauty, precision and objectivity. From this point of view, Gita is a wonderful humanitarian scripture. Its vision is not one-sided, it is comprehensive. The joy of literature, even while rendering philosophy in Gita, is its unique feature. The description of philosophy through cultured poetic style is the quality of Gita, which does not remain without enchanting any heart.
