Re: Why do Islamic clerics oppose Yoga?
There have been yoga classes in Pakistan since ages...
Never heard any maulvi have any objections against it.
Common sense, that even clerics make mistakes. This is obviously one of them. Karate, Kung fu and Tae kwondo is heavily practiced in our watan, it doesnt mean we cope the religious part of the sports as well......
I do yoga, but refrain from saying "ohm". I recite own mantras I need to focus on.

A muscular body is no sign of good physical or mental health.
Which questions raised by Dr. Nayak?
I find Dr. Nayak to be very funny. He has memorized so much without understanding anything. To me he is like - "A well trained parrot".
when someone can't find answer , he come up with these type of answers

It would be nice if you could tell what question. Also please open a new thread for this question. This discussion is about Yoga.

Yup.... But then again, my hindu friends do say salaam aleikum and if I greet their elders, I do say namaste aunt jee.... Its just due to respect. I plan to have yoga classes during my trip to India in Nov. Wouldnt miss it at any cost.... ;-)

Re: Why do Islamic clerics oppose Yoga?
I was almost helpless in 2005 regarding my arthritic pain of back, knees, shoulder and neck. The conditions were getting worst. Then I joined a local yoga centre near my home (Karachi) in early 2006. Now all the pain has gone without taking any pills and I can swim for an hour without stopping.
There are two types of yoga - the physical and spiritual - clerics may only oppose the spiritual one.
Re: Why do Islamic clerics oppose Yoga?
i dont go into why questionz when it comes to religion. i dont know wat da hell is yoga (for me, understanding comes with feeling, so acknowledging wont necessarily means i know about it, as in this case yoga.)
instead of yoga one better offer his/her prayerz (namaz) 
…sawab ka sawab, janat ke janat, excersize ke excersize, or farz bhi pora howa
