Scientific Path- Raja Yoga
We each possess vast mental and psychic resources that lie virtually untapped below the surface of the conscious mind. To release this latent potential, Raja Yoga prescribed a psychological approach, based on a practical system of concentration and control of the mind. Right conduct, a healthy body and steady posture, breath regulation, and withdrawal of the senses are recommended to achieve this.
Only if this foundation is firm can the superstructure of concentration and meditation succeed.
