"This is in accordance with the essence of yoga taught by Maha Rsi Patanjali, which mentions citta vritti nirodha yoga, yoga controls the mind," said Ari Dwipayana, quoted from ANTARA.
"It is important for us to remember that this yoga comes from the word yuj, which means unification or merging. What is the unification about? The unification between the aman and paramatman. Our unification with nature. The unification between the small universe and the big universe," he explained.
Thus, he continued, yoga not only trains physical and body fitness, but also teaches humans to recognize the body. According to Ari, if a human can recognize his body, then humans can have physical, mental, and mental health.
He added that the things that are in accordance with Hinduism's teachings, where there are three layers in the human body, must be trained, namely the sarira stula (violent or physical body), the sarira suksma (fine body or mind), and the Sarirankara ( Soul or spirit).
The three layers in the human body can be trained at once with yoga.
