Description |
Abstract |
The questions of whether or not yoga is religious in nature are complicated and nuanced. The question of whether the contemporary practice of yoga itself qualifies as a religion is similarly complicated. However, among the rising number of the religiously unaffiliated, yoga is a relatively common method in their search for well-being and finding meaning. |
