The Yoga Asanas have acquired an importance which has a two fold characteer.They are not only a set of all-round physical exercises but a preparatory stage for the practice of Yoga.Both the Hatha Yoga and the Raja Yoga prescribe these techniques of Asanas for the purification of the body and the setting of it in tune with the nervous equilibrium that is necessary for engaging oneself in the higher concentration. Yoga Asanas thus form the very foundation of Yoga proper. Well illustrated the book will help the beginner to a great extent.
