What is current affairs
Technically Current Affairs is defined as a genre of broadcast journalism where the emphasis is on detailed analysis and discussion of news stories that have recently occurred or are ongoing at the time of broadcast.
Difference
Current affairs is a genre of broadcast journalism. This differs from regular news broadcasts that place emphasis on news reports presented for simple presentation as soon as possible, often with a minimum of analysis.
Day to Day life many things happened that information will pass to us in the form of news and current affairs
The International Cricket Council (ICC) confirmed that the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021 will be held in the UAE and Oman due to the ongoing COVID-19 situation in India. The BCCI will be the hosts of the event. The tournament will now be held in Dubai International Stadium, the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi, the Sharjah Stadium, and the Oman Cricket Academy Ground. The tournament is planned to happen from October 17 to November 14, 2021.
The first round of the tournament, comprising the eight qualifying teams, will now be split between Oman and UAE. Four of these teams will then progress to the Super 12s round where they’ll join the eight automatic qualifiers who are in top 8 positions in World T20 rankings. The 8 teams that are playing in round 1 to get into the Super 12 are the former champions SriLanka, Bangladesh, Ireland, Netherlands, Scotland, Oman, Papua New Guinea and Namibia. 4 teams out of the 8 will be qualified for the World T20 Super 12. 2 teams will join the Pool A and two will join Pool B teams.
First Round
Group A: SriLanka, Ireland, Papua New Guinea and Oman are in Group A. The team that comes first will enter Pool A of Super 12. Similarly, the team that comes second will enter the Pool B of Super 12.
Group B: Bangladesh, Netherlands, Scotland and Namibia are in Group B. The team that comes first will enter Pool B of Super 12. Similarly, the team that comes second will enter the Pool A of Super 12.
Second Round
Pool A Pool A already has 4 teams qualified. They are Australia, New Zealand, West Indies and Pakistan.
Pool B Pool B already has 4 teams qualified. They are England, India, South Africa and Afghanistan.
After the league stages of the World T20, Qualifiers will be played for Finals. India performs well in every season of the World T20. But the last time India won the trophy was 2007. After that, India qualified for the playoffs almost everytime. But India did’t have the luck of winning trophy. After 2007, Dhoni and Kohli led the team in T20s. Every time India would fail in a single knock out game and would return with empty hands. This time we don’t expect the same. Prior to T20 World Cup, IPL is going to be conducted in UAE. That would be a good preparation not only for Indian players but all around the world. This time, the team does not believe in one or two players to score runs and make the team win. Every slot in the line up has heavy competition. There are 2-3 players fighting for each position. That is a healthy headache for the selection committee as well as the captain. Whoever tried in the respective spot during India’s ordinary tours played well. This time, we hope India would win the cup under Kohli’s captaincy. Happy to share my thoughts. Thank you everyone who supports. Stay safe!
Cricket! It is almost a religion in India. In this huge population, a team of 11 players get selected and represent the country in world stage. The competition for a youngster dreaming to be an international cricketer is very high. One has to dedicate his entire young age for cricket to play for India one day. He must practice daily; sacrifice his wishes of enjoying life. All these shows that cricket has grown that big today. Who sowed the seeds for this growth? Cricket was there in the nation from 1960s. Children used to play cricket after school and during free time. Some played seriously. But many didn’t know that they can take cricket as career. Cricket was played in Olympics during 1960s. Many countries played cricket at that time. But cricket was removed from Olympics because it took too long to complete a single match. Then cricket was played for 60 overs in Olympics. In 1975, for the first time, Internal Cricket Council (ICC) organised a grand cricket tournament inviting teams from all over the world. That event was the World Cup. It was played for 50 overs. West Indies won the World Cup 1975 and became the first time Champions. They made history and repeated that in 1979 as well. Yes, they won the consecutive World Cup in 1979. During that time West Indies were the giants of the world cricket.
In 1983, India won the World Cup under the captaincy of the great all-rounder Kapil Dev. At that point they might not know that incident would inspire millions to take up cricket. The face of cricket in India got changed then. Youngsters started believing that they too could play cricket. They too could be selected for the national team. They too could win trophies for the nation. At that phase, Kapil was the hero for Indian fans. Then after Kapil Dev, there came Sunil Gavaskar. He played brilliantly over the years. He smacked the giant West Indies bowlers for boundaries without helmet. Then came Sachin Tendulkar at his very young age of 16 years. Sachin took up against the world’s best bowlers in his very young age. The worked hard and became the God of Cricket scoring 100 centuries in his career. All those years from 1983, cricket has grown continuously and remarkably. In 2004, MS Dhoni made debut for Indian team when he was 23 years of age. That time, Sourav Ganguly and Rahul Dravid captained India. In 2007, ICC started conducting a new format World Cup called “ICC World T20” which was played for 20 overs. India won the first ever World T20 cup under the captaincy of Dhoni. In 2011, India won the World Cup. In 2013, India won the ICC Champions trophy. Dhoni, through his amazing leadership won trophies after trophies. They way he handled youngsters was very impressive. He also won 3 IPL trophies. Now Virat Kohli is leading the Indian team. He made India to win a Test Series in Australia for the first time. He made India the No.1 Test ranking team.
All these years, India won, lost, suffered, sustained and fought. Cricket never fell down from the hearts of Indians.
Data analytics have come to play an important role in the football industry today. Clubs look to gain a competitive edge on and off the pitch, and big data is allowing them to extract insights to player scouting, improve player performance, prevent injuries, their suitability to the club’s system and ethos, output prediction and increase their commercial efficiency. However, contextualizing the information and extracting valuable insights is not always an easy task.
Moneyball & Football
Overtime, Analytics has started to play more important roles in Football with respect to player recruitment. There are many Football clubs in the world who pride themselves over their player recruitment models based purely data and metrics. Billy Beane, the pioneer of the ‘Moneyball’, a system of player recruitment based purely on stats instead of the old, tried and tested ‘eye-tested’ proved to revolutionise recruitment in Baseball. Nowadays clubs like Liverpool FC, Brentford FC, Barnsley, Midtjylland, AZ Alkmaar the Red Bull Franchise and many other clubs are known for their data driven approach to player recruitment.
The Metrics
There are many metrics over which a football player is analysed. These include Xg(Expected Goals), Xa(Expected assists), turnovers, dribbles, different per 90 minutes stats like passes, dribbles, pressures, tackles, interceptions etc. These stats can be viewed by the helps of charts and graphs which can present a player’s overall stats and make it easy for assessment. This model also helps in predicting potential risks and assessing the weaknesses of a player which reduces the chances of signing a player who can prove to be a flop, significantly.
Future
Moneyball and the modern data driven approach in football has been proved to be a efficient, smart and cost effective way of recruitment. This model has allowed many smaller clubs to punch above their weight and challenge the bigger, more established clubs and have a successful trophy winning runs.
There are many football applications and websites available where one can view player stats like Sofascore, StatsBomb, FbRef etc. This field has gained more demand recently and many clubs are moving towards a pure data driven approach towards recruitment.
Fitness is defined as the ability of the body to carry out various types of daily activities without feeling tired. Physical fitness is measured on the basis of some devices, and many scientific tests, and then compared to the ideal level of fitness, and determined the ability of the individual, and fitness efficiency. Fitness is divided into two parts: general fitness, which refers to health and well-being, and special fitness, which relates to a particular type of exercise. Good fitness can be obtained by getting proper nutrition and taking enough breaks.
Elements of fitness are all the components or characteristics that play an important and significant role in learning the exercise techniques and achieving sound health (such as strength, speed, elongation, agility, flexibility ….. etc) and all the qualities that result from the merger of two or more of them. Determining the elements of physical fitness varied from school to school and from one scientist to another according to their views, but most of them agreed on some basic fitness elements, and we have addressed some of them here.
Muscle Strength
Muscle strength can be defined as the ability of a muscle to exert as much energy as possible. There are a number of factors that affect muscle strength; such as muscle size, number, and type of fibers, and elasticity, in addition to psychological factors.
Body Composition
Body composition is the ratio of fat mass to fat-free mass in the body, and muscles, bones, cartilage, and other vital parts of the body are part of the fat-free mass.
Speed Fitness
Speed is the element that indicates the time a muscle needs to exert the required physical effort and is affected by many factors; such as muscle fibers, strength, and elasticity, as well as a strong will, and nervous compatibility.
Balance and Coordination
Balance indicates the body’s ability to resist falling as long as possible. It is influenced by the integrity of the body’s organs, its equilibrium base, its high center of gravity, as well as the Earth’s gravity line, and psychological factors.
Flexibility
Flexibility expresses an individual’s ability to perform activities to the greatest extent that a muscle allows. It is affected by the mobility of the joints well, the elasticity of the muscle. Continuous and regular training has an effect on muscle flexibility.
Agility
Agility is the ability of an individual to change the direction of his body, whether on the ground or in the air, in the shortest possible time. The body’s agility is influenced by many factors; the most important are: the integrity of the nervous system, muscle capacity, as well as the type of activity, and the speed of the body’s response to it.
Cardiovascular Endurance
Endurance is the expression of the ability of the body and its muscles to the possibility of fatigue and stress while exercising a certain physical activity. This is an important element of fitness and must be available to those who work in conditions that require long and arduous hours of work.
There are many ways to improve physical fitness, including:Exercise Frequency: The number of times a person should exercise for more than a week. Exercise intensity control: The target heart rate should be reached when performing the exercise. The maximum rate depends on the age, as subtracted from 220, the maximum number of heartbeats is 220 minus 50, or 170 beats per minute for a 50-year-old. The goal is to reach 50% – 85% of this rate. This can be determined by monitoring the ease and difficulty of each exercise. If the exercise is easy, the intensity should be increased to suit the person. Optimal Exercise Time: Exercise time should be more than usual. If you want to lose weight or meet specific fitness goals, you may need to do more exercise. Change Exercise Type: Exercises should be changed from time to time. If a person is constantly walking, he can move on to jogging, then jogging, or move to another exercise altogether, such as swimming.
Additional fitness tips:
Lift some heavyweights to increase the strength of your body muscles.Running and jumping as much as possible, they help to get rid of the accumulated fat in the body, especially those that accumulate in the abdominal area.Use the stairs instead of relying on the elevator.Make healthier food choices.Breathe deeply to keep your body clean and toxin-free, thus enjoying a healthy body.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic is one of the most iconic names in football history. He is one of the most decorated active players in football. Zlatan has played for one of the biggest clubs in football history ( Ajax, Juventus, Inter Milan, Ac Milan, Barcelona, Paris Saint Germain, Manchester United). In this candid autobiography, one of the most enigmatic footballers of his generation shares his opinions on his great career and personal life. It has received numerous accolades for its candour and no-holds-barred attitude. It’s arrogant and aggressive, and it perfectly describes the guy, but it’s also evident that he’s self-aware, and has harnessed his inner qualities to become one of football’s most revered figures during the previous two decades.
I Am Football is extensively illustrated with photographs from Zlatan’s football career and concludes with over 50 pages of statistics from his career between 1999 and 2018, addressing queries such as how many minutes he played for Inter and how many goals he scored with his right foot. A compilation of all the facts for every club he has ever played for, as well as the Swedish national team.
It covers his football career from Malmö FF to Manchester United and the move to LA Galaxy, giving us a first-hand account of how he climbed from underdog to superstar, his move from Milan to Paris SG, and how he dealt with his devastating knee injury at Manchester United. On top of that, he tells us about his objectives, victories, and the constant sensation of needing to be better in order to be accepted. The book also includes interviews with players, managers, and friends who have been a part of his journey, such as José Mourinho, Paul Pogba, Patrick Vieria, Roland Andersson, Henrik Larsson, Thierry Henry, and Mino Raiola, to provide a more complete portrait of the man himself.
Much of the book has been serialised, with Arsenal requesting a trial and a slew of obscenities aimed at Pep Guardiola and Barcelona in general, but the story is far more interesting than any of the juicy sections picked ripe for press publication. There’s a lot to Zlatan; his family, particularly his father, were profoundly wounded by the Yugoslavia conflict, which had an impact on the footballer’s upbringing as a child. Zlatan goes out of his way to praise his father whenever there is a hint of criticism, but there is no escaping the stories about a young Zlatan frequently arriving home to find no food in the house while his father drank beer and listened to ‘Yugo’ music. His environment appears to have pushed Zlatan to seek out the guardian position that he had missed out on for much of his boyhood. The battles, disputes, and rebellion are all nicely chronicled and humourous as well as informative, but Zlatan looked to be looking for others to parent him for most of his early career without publicly asking for it.
The way he talks about Helena(his wife) makes it plain that he considers himself fortunate to have her; the two couldn’t be more dissimilar, and Helena was the stereotypical older lady in that she was classy, educated, and smart. Mino Raiola, who Zlatan worked with as an agent at Ajax, was the polar opposite. He was fat, sweary, pushy, and as impolite as he could get away with. None of that mattered since Mino got things done and really aided Zlatan.
While most will be left with the story of a man growing up and eventually fulfilling all of his aspirations, there is no getting away from the battles. Zalatan’s struggle with a petulant Rafael van der Vaart at Ajax is intriguing, and his AC Milan training ground brawl that left a teammate with a black eye reveals a lot about what manager Fabio Capello was willing to accept, and even promote. Capello is one of those men who commands Zlatan’s respect without question and has taught the player to accept it rather than earn it.
He’s arrogant, but it quickly becomes evident that much of this was developed as a protective strategy in childhood and increased when his anxieties about trusting people were validated. It would be difficult to read the book without warming to the player, and there is far more to learn from this than from any other football autobiography published in recent years.
With the revelations and insights, almost every page might launch a story on its own. As much as a look at Zlatan Ibrahimovic, this is a good view on how football truly works at the top level and will leave a football fan more informed on the dynamics of the game.
Sajan Prakash created history by becoming the first Indian ever to clear the ‘A’ standard of international swimming, clocking 1:56.38 minutes in the 200m butterfly. Eventually, heads to the Tokyo Olympics as the first Indian to make it to successive Games.
It wasn’t the fastest of races, which meant Sajan had to push himself to set the pace, with Israeli Marc Hinawi as a marker. The Indian was right behind Czech swimmer Lunak Sebastien in Lane 4 at the first turn, which he completed in 25.99s. Sajan would take the lead at 100m, clocking 29.57s on the return, and finish with identical, consistent splits of 30.41s in the second half.
27-year-old, Sajan Prakash from Kerala won gold which is his second in two weeks. After coming agonisingly close to slashing ‘A’ at Belgrade, Serbia, last week. Coach Pradeep Kumar said, “He was spending 19 seconds and 52 metres underwater over four laps, and we focussed on speeding his pace and gaining 80 centimetres in all to breach the ‘A’ Cut.”
Born in Idukki in the shadow of the tallest peak in the Western Ghats – the Anamudi mountains – Sajan swam under coach Saju Sebastien at Neyveli (Tamil Nadu) before heading off to his friend Pradeep Kumar. He would also work in a training stint in Thailand on a FINA scholarship, and was seen as the most consistent performer since his Rio Games outing. The pandemic saw him head to Dubai where he worked in an indoor pool, silently chipping away the seconds.
Former Asiad medallist Virdhawal Khade explained Butterfly is considered the hardest strokes. While Khade reckons said the Butterfly relies on strong shoulders, it is all in the kick that Sajan scores. He further contunied “Even now, he’s not the most dominant guys. But he works hardest and helps young swimmers and is generous with his help. It’s his time now to become the alpha of Indian swimming and lead the others. If youngsters ever needed someone to look up to, there’s none better than this nice guy. Sajan’s put a smile on everyone’s face in Indian swimming,”.
Defending champions Portugal, led by Cristiano Ronaldo, will take on world’s top-ranked team Belgium in their round of 16 match
Christiano Ronaldo and Romelu Lukaku will face off each other today in the much awaited knockout game of the tournament. Ronaldo is the Euro’s leading scorer after netting five times in the group stage while Lukaku, who is in the form of his life, is lurking behind the Portugal captain with three goals. Juventus forward Ronaldo is also just one goal away from breaking Ali Daei’s all-time international goalscoring record of 109, which he equalled with a brace against France in the European champions’ final Group F game.
The pair will take on each other at the Euro after doing battle in the Serie A scoring charts last season, with 36-year-old Ronaldo being crowned ‘capocannoniere’ after scoring 29 times in a difficult season for Juventus.
However Lukaku pipped Ronaldo to the league’s player of the season award last campaign despite scoring five fewer goals as he played a key role in Inter Milan winning their first league title in over a decade.
Both teams will have their work cut out to reach the July 11 final at Wembley with Italy, who squeezed past Austria on Saturday, and either world champions France or Spain the opponents in the next two rounds if they get beyond the last 16.
However Portugal coach Fernando Santos is “firmly convinced” his side will come out on top in the clash in Seville.
Speaking about Belgium, the coach of Portugal’s football team said “Belgium has a lot of strengths, especially the knowledge they have of each other for having been together for such a long time. Everything flows naturally. They already know where everyone is without having to think about it “
Players to watch out for in today’s big game –
1. Romelu Lukaku (Belgium) – There are a lot of players who have the ability to single-handedly change the outcome of games for Belgium. But the player who usually ends up finding the back of the net for the Red Devils is their striker, Lukaku. He is expected to be the dangerman Portugal need to watch out for.
2. Pepe ( Portugal) – Pepe is the bedrock of Portugal’s defense. In the ongoing Euro 2020, he has recovered more balls than any other Portugal player and has also won two tackles in three games thus far. His experience makes him one of the key players for Fernando Santos. Pepe will be given the huge task of keeping Belgium’s Romelu Lukaku when the two teams lock horns on Sunday
3. Kevin de Bruyne( Belgium)– He is a player who possesses the ability to do it all on the pitch. He is great from set-pieces, can score with either foot, create chances out of nothing and has the presence of mind to know when to shoot and when to pass.
4. Eden Hazard ( Belgium)- With the kind of experience, Belgium captain possess it will be difficult for the Portugese defenders to contain him and refrain him for providing assists to their strikers.
5. Christiano Ronaldo ( Portugal)– The Juventus star’s drive and dedication towards being the best player in the world is unparalleled. At the business end of tournaments, like the Round-of-16 clash against Belgium at Euro 2020, Ronaldo tends to up the ante, something the Red Devils will have to be wary of.

The first Olympic day was celebrated on 23 June in 1948 by countries including Venezuela, Belgium, Canada, Switzerland, Portugal, Greece, Austria, Great Britain, and Uruguay.
Every year on 23 June, International Olympic Day is celebrated across the world. The day was initially observed to promote the idea of the Olympics and in order to celebrate the establishment of the International Olympic Committee(IOC). This committee was formed on 23 June, 1894 in Sorbonne, Paris. The Olympics games were revived by Pierre de Coubertin, as mentioned on the website of the International Olympic Committee.
International Olympic day history
The International Olympic Day was first observed in 1947. At the 41st Session of the International Olympic Committee in Stockholm that year, Dr Josef Gruss, a Czeh IOC member, proposed the concept of a World Olympic Day. He advocated designating a day to commemorate everything the Olympics stands for. After a few months work, Dr. Gruss idea was approved at the 42nd IOC session in Switzerland. The International Olympic Committee(IOC) was formed on the same day in Sorbonne, Paris, in 1894, and June 23 was chosen as the International Olympic Day because
of its historical significance.
International Olympic Day 2021 Significance
The International Olympic is significant as it aims to attract people, regardless of their age, gender, social background, to participate in the Olympics. The day now bases itself on three pillars- move, learn and discover to engage people to take part in sports or perform physical exercises regardless of their sporting ability. This is enabling the day to develop into much more than a run or just a sports event.

It rained in the morning at Southampton. Many were disappointed that there would be no cricket on day 5. But luckily rain stopped and covers were off. Play started at time. Each session was planned for 2 hours respectively. New Zealand started the day with a score on card 101-2 with still trail India by 116 runs. Captain Kane Williamson and Ross Taylor were at the crease. Since the conditions were cloudy and overcast, the ball started swinging well. So Indian captain used his 3 prime fast bowlers for the whole 1st session.
Session 1
The plan of New Zealand was to play safe for the 1st session. It seemed that the runs didn’t matter much to them. They scored 34 runs in 23 overs in the 1st session. They played riskless shots. They wanted to go without any wicket loss at the end of 1st session. Their plan worked well until India’s senior bowler Mohammad Shami took the wicket of Ross Taylor. It was a good catch by Shubman Gill inside the circle. Then the left hander Henry Nicholls came in. Ishant Sharma bowled a well constructed outswinger outside the off stump. Nicholls played to get caught on the slip. Rohit Sharma took the fantastic catch. After him, BJ Watling joined Kane. He was removed in his 2nd ball by Shami by a inswinger that hit the middle stump. After Watling, their all-rounder Colin de Grandhomme joined hands with Kane. But then, there seemed to be a change in their plan. de Grandhomme looked to play shots. Also, he was conscious about tackling the good balls.
Session 2
At the end of 80th over, India took the new ball. Shami used the new ball very well. He took the wicket of de Grandhomme tactically. He bowled 3 outswingers from position close to the stumps. Then he bowled a inswinger from wide of the crease. Then happened that lbw shout and the batsman gone. Players came in and went out without making a long partnership with Kane. Kane remained at one end without help. Kyle Jamieson joined Kane this time. His attacking plans worked well. He scored some boundaries. He hit Shami to a six after which Shami bowled a good bouncer to take him for a catch at the fine leg. That was a very judged catch by Bumrah. Then Southee came and scored. Kane was dismissed at 49 by Ishant at the slip. Then New Zealand’s innings ended at 249 runs.
Session 3
India opened their 2nd innings trailing New Zealand by 32 runs. Gill and Rohit gave a good start until Southee took Gill for a lbw by an inswinger in the 11th over. Soon Rohit gone scoring 30 runs. The team score was 51 at that time. Some expected a night watchman since the day was nearing the end. But Kohli came at no.4 without discussion. He joined Pujara at the crease. India finished the day-5 at 64-2 with Pujara and Kohli standing at the crease.
Hope there would be no rain on the reserve day and expect a result rather than a draw.
“I think everybody in this country should learn how to program a computer, should learn a computer language, because it teaches you how to think.” – Steve Jobs
If you are a programmer, you may understand the deep meaning of these words quoted by Steve Jobs, and you may also have this experience even if you turn off the computer, you continue to think about the programming or code you use in it. The project has been written. In programming, you just don’t learn programming, you also learn the “art of thinking“, the method is to break the code into smaller parts, and then use creative, logic-based thinking to solve problems from different angles. Programming is very interesting and it is like brain training. Programming is an intellectual sport. When this sport is practiced by sports programmers on the Internet, it is called competitive programming.
Coding contests or competitions usually require the host to have a series of logical or mathematical questions for the contestants, also called puzzles (ranging from ten to one thousand) problems. Scoring is mainly based on the count of problems solved and the time required to write a successful solution, but other factors (quality of results obtained, execution time, program size, etc.) also do count.
The goal of competitive programming is to write source code for computer programs that can solve specific problems. Most of the problems encountered in the programming Olympics are essentially mathematical or logical problems. Typical problems fall into one of the following categories: combinatorics, number theory, graph theory, algorithm game theory, computational geometry, string analysis, and data structure. Challenges related to deadlines and artificial intelligence are also popular in certain competitions.
These coding contests provides young and talented coders with the opportunity to measure their skills and compare them with other programmers around the world. Some of them are listed as-
1) The ACM-ICPC International Collegiate Programming Contest
Yoga Sanskrit: योग; Sanskrit for “yoking” or “union”, is a group of physical, mental, and spiritual practices or disciplines that originated in ancient India. Yoga is one of the six orthodox philosophical schools of Hinduism. There are a broad variety of yoga schools, practices, and goals in Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism and there are four paths or types of yoga: Karma yoga, Kriya yoga, Bhakti yoga, and Jnana yoga. Research studies have shown that traditional yoga systems that include breathing exercises and asanas or postures, chants, and meditation can reduce stress and improve immunity and lung functions. Traditional forms and modern methods of yoga are practiced worldwide.
The practice of yoga has been thought to date back to pre-vedic Indian traditions, possibly in the Indus valley civilization around 3000 BCE. Yoga is mentioned in the Rigveda, and also referenced in the Upanishads, though it most likely developed as a systematic study around the 5th and 6th centuries BCE, in ancient India’s ascetic and Śramaṇa movements.
The chronology of earliest texts describing yoga practices is unclear, varyingly credited to the Upanishads. The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali date from the 2nd century BCE, and gained prominence in the West in the 20th century after being first introduced by Swami Vivekananda. Hatha yoga texts began to emerge sometime between the 9th and 11th century with origins in tantra.
Yoga gurus from India introduced yoga to the West following the success of Vivekananda’s adaptation of yoga without asanas in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The term “yoga” in the Western world often denotes a modern form of hatha yoga and yoga as exercise, consisting largely of the asanas. Outside India, it has developed into a posture-based physical fitness, stress-relief and relaxation technique. Traditional yoga, however, includes physical exercise, meditation, and spirituality. Yoga has its own epistemological method, which assumes the ontology and metaphysics of the closely correlated Samkhya darsana.
In this today’s world it’s so difficult to spend our time and go to gym and take a diet and etc etc. But yoga is formed to pe in a peace of mind where we are not just physically but we are mentally fit too.
