The science and practice of Yoga has its roots dating back to thousands of years ago. The ‘Yoga Sutras’, one of the foundational texts of classical Yogic Philosophy, was compiled in the early centuries CE by Maharishi Patanjali, who synthesized and organized knowledge about Yoga from much older traditions.

This rich treasure of Yoga is losing its spiritual significance with time. Many regard the practice of yoga restricted to Hatha Yoga and Asanas (postures), while others perceive it as a therapy or exercise for health and fitness. However, its true potential is far more than what it is perceived nowadays. Derived from the Sanskrit term ‘Yuj’ that means ‘to unite’, Yoga is defined as the union of ‘limited’ self-consciousness with the ‘limitless’ universal consciousness.

At SRM, Sri Guru has always laid emphasis on the subtler spiritual objective of Yoga. Through this Satsang series on the Yoga Sutras of Maharishi Patanjali, Sri Guru takes the seekers deeper into the understanding of ‘Union’ through physical, mental and intellectual evolution.
