These practices are the evolutionary legacies of India’s glorious Vedic period, when sages and priest strove to find that perfect balance between mentality and physicality. Harking back to those same ideals, lets read about some of the well known Indian gurus of our modern world.B.K.S IyengarThe founder of Iyengar style of Yoga, the 93 old Yoga master is considered one of the foremost Yoga teachers in the world. His trademark teachings relate Yoga as an extension of our inner consciousness that connects both our mind (with its intellect and ego) and physicality.

His famous 26 types of power postures are derived from Hatha Yoga, and are known have their beneficial attributes on every part of our body. As a matter of fact, each of the individual poses is responsible for a definite part of our system; however, the collective effect works in a symbiotic manner for the whole body.Baba RamdevA well-known yet very controversial Yoga teacher, Baba Ramdev came into the public limelight through his nationwide broadcasts of Pranayama.
