“Yoga is a big part of my life. It is really good for your spirit and your bones. (Yoga keeps you) strong and flexible at the same time”, she reportedly said, and discussing future plans, was quoted as mentioning: “I'll do more yoga and grow spiritually”.

 

 

 

 

Acclaimed Hindu statesman Rajan Zed has extended invitation to other Hollywood celebrities to explore yoga, referred as “a living fossil”, which he says is both a mental and physical discipline by means of which the human-soul (jivatman) unites with universal-soul (parmatman).

 

 
 
Zed, who is president of Universal Society of Hinduism, in a statement in Nevada (USA) today, pointed out that some sages had described yoga as the silencing of all mental transformations, which lead to the total realization of the Supreme Self. Some had used yoga attempting to gain liberation by removing all sensory barriers.

 

 
 
According to Patanjali, author of the basic text, the Yoga Sutra, who codified yoga after being founded by Yajanavalkya, yoga was a methodical effort to attain perfection, through the control of the different elements of human nature, physical and psychical, Rajan Zed added.
