Yoga refers to the plethora of religious practices by which one can aim to escape samsara. In Ancient India it was understood as a transformation of the mind, a prerequisite to attaining liberation from earthly bonds. Currently the most popular form in the West is hatha yoga, a system of bodily exercises and postures (asana) initially intended to prepare the body for meditation. It is now generally practiced in the west as a fitness exercise.
