Abstract

Body and self-reflection are the central concepts of yoga philosophy based on which its psychology and phenomenology of the practice of yoga is built. The goal of yoga is to situate oneself within the twin reality of matter and consciousness, body and the self. This chapter suggests that there are four aspects of self-reflection that can be deduced from yoga psychology and its phenomenology: self-certainty, body-centrality, cognitive centrality and contentful experience.
