Yoga Philosophy

Along with the practical applications of yoga, you need to fall back at times, on the foundation of yoga. That is what Yoga Philosophy is all about. The main philosophy of yoga states that the mind, body, and soul are all one. You need to know about the philosophical ideas, to be able to utilize the various practices under the umbrella of yoga. In yoga, you cannot choose one or leave out another aspect. The entire practice has to be carried out in totality. Spiritual ignorance can only create suffering, and nothing more than that. So, you need to amass the wealth of knowledge that the philosophy of yoga offers. You can call it the blueprint of your yogic practice. It enlists what all you should follow, and what you should not. The main principle of yoga is that the mind, body, and soul are one. You cannot separate one from the other. It also allows the concept of God. It is amongst the six orthodox schools.
