The Sanskrit word yoga is derived from the root word yuj, meaning union. The Upanishads are the original source of Yogic philosophy. Different practices and paths of Yoga are aimed towards the development of subtle powers of inner being to discover higher truth that forms the basis of religious faiths and beliefs.
There are three main divisions of yoga: (1) Karma Yoga (2) Bhakti Yoga (3) Jnana Yoga
