M.Sc yoga

Without antharayas we don't attain higher states of yoga ,,,,for eg.idols have been taken so much pain before they receive prayers...... My opinion is not to worship idols,,,,, in every single atom is God,,,,means "ano raniyaan ,,,,mahato mahiyan"...... Micro and macro understanding........
