Are Yoga Poses Meant To Worship Gods - dannyparker9991 - 10-21-2024
Are Yoga Poses Meant To Worship Gods? Yoga poses are not inherently meant to worship gods. While yoga has roots in ancient Indian spiritual traditions, including Hinduism, the poses (asanas) were originally developed for physical and mental discipline, aiding meditation and promoting balance, strength, and flexibility. Some poses are named after figures from Hindu mythology, but in modern practice, yoga is widely seen as a secular practice focused on health, well-being, and mindfulness, without religious connotations. Whether a person incorporates spiritual worship into their yoga practice is up to their individual beliefs.
