YOGA BENEFITS
The term "yoga" first appears in the Hindu scripture Katha Upanishad (a primary Upanishad c. 400 BCE) where it is defined as the steady control of the senses, which along with cessation of mental activity, leads to the supreme state.[28][note 5] Katha Upanishad integrates the monism of early Upanishads with concepts of samkhya and yoga. It defines various levels of existence according to their proximity to the innermost being Ātman. Yoga is therefore seen as a process of interiorization or ascent of consciousness.It is the earliest literary work that highlights the fundamentals of yoga. Shvetashvatara Upanishad (c. 400-200 BCE) elaborates on the relationship between thought and breath, control of mind, and the benefits of yoga.Like the Katha Upanishad the transcendent Self is seen as the goal of yoga. This text also recommends meditation on Om as a path to liberation.Maitrayaniya Upanishad (c. 300 BCE) formalizes the sixfold form of yoga.[37] Physiological theories of later yoga make an appearance in this text.Further systematization of yoga is continued in the Yoga Upanishads of the Atharvaveda. The concepts of Chakra and Kundalini are first mentioned in these Upanishads.
