Paths to Moksha
There are various forms of meditation that we individuals practice in our everyday lives to relieve stress, exercise and relax; yoga being one of them.

For Bhakti-yoga, it states its importance on devotion, which I don’t have at a consistence rate. I remember one time when I begged my dad to sign me up for tennis at the local...
