Several thousand years ago, Indian sages realized that pursuit of a material life and ambition could never bring true happiness or health to people. Therefore, they began to explore a spiritual world, trying to find out how to create everlasting happiness. Yoga is a science about soul, life, and inner world. Through various forms of expression, yoga will bring to us the richest knowledge and the purest happiness. |
