AYURVEDA

Ayurveda has emphasized the view that man is miniature of nature. This means that principles that are present in universe are also present in man. Everything in this universe has been created after the combination of Purusha or pure consciousness and Prakruti or Great Nature. Then triganas are formed. They are called as sattva, Rajas and Tamas.

 

YOGA

Yoga is a life of self discipline based on the tenets of simple living and high thinking. The body is a temple or vehicle for the soul and has specific requirements which must be fullilled for it to function smoothly and supply the optimum mileage. The five points of yoga are proper exercise, proper breathing proper relaxation proper diet and positive thinking and meditation. Yoga means the link or union, the link between the soul and supreme consciousness through which the soul becomes the controller of its own mind, intellect and consequently of its Physical body. The four main branches of yoga are Karma Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, Raja Yoga and Jnana Yoga.
