8
Limbs of Yoga - Union with Higher Self
Yoga is one of the 6 systems of philosophies in India. Yoga means Union,
a union with higher self. Hatha Yoga was first taught by Lord Shiva to
his consort Parvathi, the Universal Mother. Hatha Yoga will give you the
knowledge of controlling two energies "Ha" and "Tha"
(Prana and Apana). This philosophy consists of an 8 fold path or limbs.
Hatha yoga will help gain control over the mind, which is called Raja
Yoga. In olden days, yoga was taught on a one-on-one basis by a Guru.
