What is Hatha Yoga?
Yoga is a technology. If you learn to use it, it works – no matter where you come from, what you believe in or do not believe in.
Classical Hatha Yoga is a complete path by itself. If you give yourself totally to this process, you can make yourself the way you want. When taught in the right kind of atmosphere, Hatha Yoga becomes a phenomenal process of making the body into a device to receive the Divine. Your physical health, your psychological wellbeing, and
your spiritual possibility depend on how well aligned you are with existence. Essentially, Hatha Yoga is towards establishing this alignment.
We teach Hatha Yoga as a transformative process. The transformation will not only be on the level of your body but in the way you are. If your body and mind take instructions from you, to be healthy, to be peaceful, to be joyful, is a natural consequence.
-Sadhguru
