The wise men called seers were engaged in the pursuit of knowledge. They realized that unless the body was kept healthy, the mind would not be alert and intellect would not be sharp. They observed how the animals lived in harmony with nature. They evolved a system called yoga, which was based on nature. The Sanskrit word 'yoga' is derived from the root 'yuj' which means to join or to unite. It is the unity of man with Nature of God. Yoga is a group of physical, mental and spiritual disciplines. Sage Patanjali is considered as the Father of Yoga. He collected the thoughts of different sages handed down from generation to generation in his 'Yoga Sutra.
