The record of yoga first appeared in the Vedas of India. About 300 BC, patanjali, the ancestor of yoga, elaborated the training course of health preservation and spiritual cultivation in Yoga Sutra, systematized and standardized it, and formed the foundation of contemporary yoga practice. The philosophical principle put forward by patanjali is regarded as a milestone in the spiritual field of yoga.
Patanjali, the ancestor of yoga, is generally believed to have been born in Lalo between 200 and 500 BC. According to legend, patanjali's mother, Gonica, was a knowledgeable yogi. She always hoped to impart what she had learned to a wise man, but failed to do so. Gonica wanted to say that her life was running out, so she prayed to the sun god to give her a sage she was looking for. She prayed to the sun god with water in her hands and closed her eyes. Just as she was about to offer water to the sun god, she opened her eyes and saw a small snake in her hand. The little snake turned into a human in an instant and said to her, "I want to be your child." Veronica agreed and named him patanjali. Pat means falling, and An 'jali means putting your hands together. Because patanjali fell into her hands like a person from the sky, she was named Pat Anjali.
