In the situation where the human is struck in the ocean of desires or wants and where people consider it as the life. To bring back the people from this state, the Yoga has been most aidful.
"Yoga" is a sanskrit originated word, which means uniting one's thoughts and ideas and acting according to them. This can also be told in divine language as the lively human soul attaining/reaching the state of Paramathma - the ultimate soul.
What happens actually in Yoga?
Pure thoughts, actions, attaining the higher state of god, by bringing all the powers in our body together and concentrating the mind on one point, and uniting all this to a godly state happens by practising yoga.
One who follows the path of yoga is called as Yogi. Yogi is one who is away from the sorrow happiness, relations, affection, complaining.
For every action there is an opposite action. This suits for human life also. When he is not able to face the consequences of his action, he gets distracted from the path and falls into the pit of sorrow and suffers a lot.

To become successful in this practice of yoga there are certain rules. Those who follow those rules strictly could become successful in the yoga practice in short span of time.
