I would like to help clarify and sort of perpetuate the correct definition of the term Hatha yoga or Hatha yoga, as many people say.

Now, when you look at the great forms of yoga that have emerged over the last couple of thousands of years, those that discovered new forms did so on their own. By doing a lot of research, contemplation spent a lot of time and effort in evolving what they thought worked for them and then spreading that to others. Right. It's like some of the best forms of yoga have emerged from these handful of individuals. So it's like the Newton's and the Einstein's in physics. Right
