Is Yoga a Religion? [Video]

In this video, Zahir explores the age-old question: Is yoga a religion? 

The truth is, it’s never that straightforward.

The information presented here is simplified, and I fully acknowledge that those familiar with the Tantrics, Aghoris, and Shaivas could argue they are intrinsically connected—I agree. However, for the sake of clarity, I’ve chosen to present them separately to simplify my own understanding.

I’m well aware that everything in this video is far more nuanced than how it’s portrayed. Nevertheless, the content offers an accessible answer to the question that Google drives the most visitors to our website: Is yoga a religion?
