Islam and Yoga

Hi All,

I am a non sectarian, but want to honor and respect the sect I am born into. So I started exploring, and wanted to see the energetic and other spiritual mechanics behind namaz? It has been described as a way to reach to god. I want to know the science behind it. Like with AYP practices, I can understand what it does to human system, but I am not sure whats behind namaz. So any light on this will be appreciated.

Here in the forums you will not find an answer whether it is muslim or any other religion prayers

In yoga it all falls under Bhakti..you might want to check it out in the AYP lessons

For example lesson 67
