“Yoga is a type of exercise in which you move your body into various positions in order to become more fit or flexible, to improve your breathing, and to relax your mind,” this dictionary definition sums up the understanding of most people about Yoga.
Most religions teach that there is a spark of the Divine (Prakash / Light) in every human being. Prakash Yoga of Brahmavidya merely helps you to realize this more clearly and to use the Supreme Intelligence within, in a very practical way. Being potentially divine, man has within him all the power required to overcome his difficulties and problems.
