WHEN Darkness reigned all the world over, ancient India was in the height 'of its

C'UItUl e and civilisation. The secret of success of the ancient Indians lay in
developing their brain power and intellect as well as sound health by means of
Yoga. .Renouncing the world, they meditated deeply upon the sublime, with untiring
patience and perseverence, till the treasures of knowledge unfolded themselves with
glaring lustre in their mind's eye in clear and correct vision. Being guided with
the most unselfish motive of serving humanity at large, to remove misery and pain
out of this world, or rather to soften them when they cannot be eradicated
forthwith, with true knowledge of what they are, and what they w01:lld be, they
distributed their nectars of knowledge amongst the common people.
