A few years ago, I had taken a trip to Bangalore. All heads of yoga centers were invited to take decisions on a number of issues. One in particular required attention, which was whether the subject of yoga should come under the faculty of science or arts. In fact, this controversy still continues.
Yoga is definitely a systematic, scientific phenomenon and it is connected with the research conducted in laboratories. But it is a science of philosophy, and hence comes in the faculty of arts.
So, should yoga be part of arts or science?
Much discussion went on at the Bangalore conference. The answer we gave was that yoga is a science as well as an art, as well as everything else. It is all-encompassing. Therefore, it can be put under any faculty of study or field of knowledge.
Unfortunately, somehow in the language of modern times, yoga cannot be pigeonholed, categorized or compartmentalized. It is a very vast subject that covers a wide range of topics. It talks about life. It is the science of living.
The other point is that everything has to be proven scientifically. By 'scientific' it is meant that we must get ourselves tested under scientific instruments. Even when carrying out research, our answers should be on the lines of certain parameters, otherwise it would not be accepted as scientific research.

कर्तव्य की भावना से कार्य में उत्कृष्ठता (excellence)
क ई तरह की व्यवस्थाएँ हैं, जो हमें सचेत करती हैं कि हमें क्या करना है। माता-पिता, समाज, कानून आदि के प्रति हमारे कुछ उत्तरदायित्व होते हैं, कर्तव्य व व्यवहार के कुछ नियम होते हैं जिनका हमें पूर्ण रूप से पालन करना होता है, परन्तु बहुत से लोग अपने कर्तव्यों के प्रति लापरवाह होते हैं, उन्हें अपने कर्तव्य पालन करना पसंद नहीं है ।
