It is an inherent desire in humans to be happy. The ancient sages, through inquiry about life, were able to reach a state of consciousness in which the secrets of healthier, happier and meaningful living were revealed to them. Sages called that secret and sacred knowledge ?Yoga?
The term ?Yoga? is derived from the Sanskrit word ?yuj?, meaning union; the union of the individual consciousness with the universal Consciousness. The knowledge of yoga can be found in ancient scriptures dating back over 5000 years. According to Hindu mythology, this knowledge was first revealed by Lord Shiva to his wife Parvati (also known as Shakti, the cosmic creative energy).
Yoga transcends any religion or culture. Its application is universal. Yoga is not merely a form of exercise for the body, but a path towards total harmony of body, mind and spirit.
It is ancient wisdom for a healthier, happier and more peaceful way of living that ultimately leads to Self-realization, the union with the Self. It was from this state of union when Jesus said Me and My Father are one.

Not just taken care of in the most basic way, but completely and absolutely fulfilled so that any feeling of need or want subsides, and each moment is so wonderful that any thought fades into insignificance.
