Bachelor of Yogic Studies
The Bachelor of Yogic Studies program can be taken in class or through guided
independent studies by American Trinity University. The goals of yoga are varied and
range from improving health to achieving moksha. A serious practitioner of
Yoga(someone pursuing the higher spiritual and religious goals of Yoga) takes upon
themselves a life of austere self-discipline common to nearly all forms of mystical and
religious life. The practices that constitute this self-disciplined life are called in yoga
yama and niyama. This self-discipline is the 'yoke' that one puts upon oneself for the
purpose of attaining moksha. An alternative definition is that Yoga is the method of
yoking, or unifying, the lower egoistic personality to the higher via a process of
sublimation.
