Beautifully explained by such a renounced guru! With his experience he has not only explained what draws him to do yoga he has also explained why one should do yoga and what they will experience by getting addicted to yoga. He has also covered the concepts of physical aspect, meditation and pranayama which works like magic on those who practice. These days people say money, power and position makes man independent... thanks to this guru who made us realize that yoga rightly practiced makes a man independent. Thank you for this session Vinay ji.
