Yoga is the Science of Man and Man is what the mind is. Here we are starting the journey of Mind control by following the Yoga Sutra of Patanjali.
'Now the discipline of Yoga begins.' This is the translation of the first Sutra. Discipline word comes from disciple. Discipline is the characteristic of the disciples. So, if you really like to understand Yoga Sutra, listen to it with the characteristic of a disciple.
