PremisesPremises

The Universe is an intelligent being ! (pl see:http://www.scribd.com/doc/19132609/Philosophy)

The components of the Universe act and react by the force of theConsciousness of this Universal being.

The force is exerted as pranic forces which decides the laws ofSpiritual, Social, Mental,and Physical world.

Yoga is union of the individual force with the universal force at theSpiritual, Social, Mental,and Physical levels.

It aims at Stretching the Spiritual, Social, Mental, and Physical planesand forces of the individual self with the Universal Self
