Yoga is not a religion-Yoga is pure science just like mathematics, physics or chemistry.
What survives of yoga today are mostly the physical exercises that have helped people to achieve a more balanced and relaxed state in their lives. But in fact, as Osho explains in this book, the postures did not come first; rather, people began to notice that whenever they were in a state of meditation, the body naturally took on certain postures.
It is possible to bring a certain peace by arranging the body in a posture that corresponds to this peace. But it is a misunderstanding to think that it is the cart that pulls the horse. Drawing from Yoga's original teachings, Osho clarifies this mind-body relationship and reveals yoga not only to be a set of physical exercises but what he calls a 'science of the soul'.
Osho is one of the best-known and most provocative teachers of the 20th century. Beginning in the 1970's he captured the attention of young people from the West who wanted to experience meditation and transformation. More than a decade after his death in 1990, the influence of his teachings continue to grow, reaching seekers of all ages in virtually every country of the world.
