    1. Ashtāṅga Yoga, meaning “Eight Limbs of Yoga,” is a comprehensive system described by Mahārṣi Patanjali. It provides a step-by-step guide for personal and spiritual growth through ethical discipline (Yama and Niyama), physical postures (Āsana), breath control (Prānāyāma), sensory withdrawal (Pratyāhāra), concentration (Dhārana), meditation (Dhyāna), and blissful awareness (Samādhi). Together, these eight components foster harmony between body, mind, and soul, helping practitioners achieve their highest potential and inner peace.
