The physical exercises of yoga are believed to prevent diseases and maintain health through bodily regulation of prana or mystical life energy. Because the body is viewed as a crude layer of mind, various manipulations of the physical body can affect the mind, bringing “enlightenment”. Can yoga really bring you enlightenment? Can Yoga positions, used as exercise, be separated from the spiritual practice? What are some of the physical, psychological and spiritual effects of Yoga? Are there potential dangers and occult potential? This book answers these questions with biblical evaluations.
