Full description

Many yoga practitioners may have faith in the practice for its ability to improve wellbeing or physical health, or for other personal purposes. At the same time, faith or belief can have religious dimensions. In the case of yoga, a religiously connotated faith might involve seeking for liberation, (samādhi), enlightenment (mokṣa), or union with the Divine.
