Samadhi of Mystery[edit]
What is the meaning of the term "Samadhi of Mystery?" And why is "Mystery" capitalized? I've never heard this term used in connection with...well..anything. This to me seems like a rhetorical flourish best avoided. But maybe it is a specific terminology I am not aware of? A google search reveals nothing... -September 2007 Pahool

I would include the other purposes that Vinyasa yoga serves, such as treatment for depression. Vinyasa yoga is an alternative form of treatment for individuals struggling with depression. Although anti-depressants are prescribed to clinically depressed individuals, they do not always work on patients. Apart from the physical exercises, breathing techniques are a crucial component to vinyasa. In vinyasa, an individual is instructed to focus on a specific breathing pattern. This is beneficial for depressed individuals because it distracts them from contemplating negative thoughts. In addition, the physical activity promotes endorphins that make a person feel good after they work out.[1] Rodam0892 (talk) 00:25, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
