Abstract
The purpose of the study was to find out the EFFECT of step aerobic training on
cardiovascular endurance and leg explosive power of volleyball players. The subject for this
study was 30 male volleyball players selected from Alagappa University College of Physical
Education, Alagappa University, Karaikudi, Sivagangai district, The age ranged form 18 and 25
years, The subject was divided into two equal groups randomly consisting of 15 subject each
belonging to one experimental group and one control group. Experimental group participated in
step aerobic training for 6 weeks and control group did not participate step aerobic training, The
variables and test items selected for the study were cardiovascular endurance measured by 12
min cooper’s run and walk test and Leg explosive power measured by Standing broad jump.
For analyzing the data‘t’ test was used to find out the significant improvement between the pre
test and post test of experimental group and control group. The result reveled that 6 weeks of
step aerobic training were significantly improved on the cardiovascular endurance and leg
explosive power of men volleyball players at 0.05 level of confidence
Keywords : Step aerobic training, Cardiovascular endurance, Leg explosive power
Introduction
Volleyball is a dynamic, fast-paced game. The purpose of strength training for volleyball
is not to build big muscles, but to develop the physical attributes necessary to improve a player's
performance. So strength training is very important to volleyball and should not be developed
independently of other abilities such as agility, quickness and endurance. When watching a great
volleyball player. the one word that comes to the mind is "quick". Everyt
ng the player does is
short and quick. There are no long drawn out motions like sprinting in other sports.. volleyball

players must be able to quickly change direction from the upward motion of a vertical jump to
the downward motion of a point-saving dig (or vice versa). One of the most crucial phases of
volleyball is how players perform at the net. To be successful, teams must be able to control play
at the net both offensively and defensively. Step aerobics is a form of aerobic exercise
distinguished from other types of aerobic exercise by its use of an elevated platform (the step)
The height can be tailored to individual needs by inserting risers under the step. Step aerobics
classes are offered at many gyms and fitness centers which have a group exercise program. Step
aerobics was innovated by Gin Miller around 1989. Step aerobics can also be involved in
dancing games, such as Dance Revolution or In the Groove
A system of exercise combining aerobies with dance steps and usually done to music.
Aerobics is a form of physical exercise that combines rhythmic aerobic exercise with stretching
and strength training routines, The goal is to improve all elements five of fitness (exibility,
muscular strength, muscular endurance and cardio-vascular fitness & body composition).It is
usually performed to music and may be practiced in a group setting led by an instructor (fitness
professional), although it can be done solo and without musical accompaniment, With the goal of
preventing illness and promoting physical fitness, practitioners perform various routines
comprising a number of different dance-like exercises. Formal aerobics classes are divided into
different levels of intensity and complexity
Cardiovascular endurance is the most important aspect of fitness. It is basically how
strong your heatt is, which can potentially add years to your life, The heart is the most important
muscle in the human body and if it is Kept healthy then you can avoid numerous health problems.
Another reason that cardiouvascular endurance is important is because your heart controls the
oxygen flow to all your muscles - meaning cardiovascular health has a direct impact on your
performance, both endurance and strength wise,The reason your cardio performance can be
improved is because the heart is a muscle, and like all other muscles in the body’ if you keep
working it it will adapt to the workload given. This allows us to have direct control of how
healthy one of the most important systems in our body. is. But keep in mind there are other
factors that effect heart health, such as cholesteral, and blood pressure. Eating right and
exercising will ensure that your heart becomes, and remains, healthy throughout your life.
Successful sporting performance at elite levels of competition often depends heavily on
the explosive leg power of the athletes involved in many individuals sports such as track and

field events, Gymnastics and Diving the ability to use high levels of strength as quickly and as
explosively as possible is essential to perform elite levels. Many team sports also require high
levels of explosive power, such as Basket ball, Volley ball, Net ball, Rugby’ and Foot ball codes
for success at elite levels of competition, Explosive power comes from the development of
speed strength and pure strength. Power represents the amount of work as muscle or muscle
‘group can produce per unit of time, Until recent years power as it relates to sports perform has
been the subject of limited research but in last decade or so researchers have realized the
importance of training for power in a wide variety of sporting activities vertical and horizontal
jumping, in its many different forms, requires high levels of explosive muscular power. The
double legged Volley ball spike jump and block jumps are very different in technique, but
fundamentally they are similar.
Methodology
The purpose of the study was to find out the effect of step aerobic training on
cardiovascular endurance and leg explosive power of volleyball players, The subject for this
study was 30 male volleyball players selected from Alagappa University College of Physical
Education, Alagappa University, Karaikudi, Sivagangai district. The age ranged from 18 and 25

selected for the study were cardiovascular endurance measured by 12 min cooper’s run and walk
test and Leg explosive power measured by Standing broad jump. Weekly six days experimental
‘group participated in step aerobic training for 6 weeks and control group did not participate step
aerobic training. For analyzing the data ‘t* test was used to find out the significant improvement
between the pre test and post test of experimental group and control group.
Training Programme
The training program was lasted for 45 minutes per session in a day, Sdays in a week for
a period of six weeks duration, This 45 minutes included 5 minutes warm up and 5 minutes
warm down remaining 35 minutes allotted for training programme. Every two weeks of training
5% of intensity was increased from 65% to 75% of work load. The training load was increased
from the maximum working capacity of the subjects during the pilot study

Abstract
Anxiety is an important factor, which affects the performance in sports . Anxiety is
considered as an obstacle to activity. The purpose of this study was to compare the level of state
anxiety between university and national level filed judo players of Maharashtra, India. For the
purpose of this investigation 40 male subjects (20 university and 20 national level players) were
recruited as subjects of the study. Their age was ranged from 19 to 25 years. To find out the level
of anxiety of university and national level players, the state anxiety test developed by Martens
(1977) was administered on the subjects. The ‘* test was employed to analyse the data, Results
have revealed that there was no significant difference found between university and national
level field judo players in regard to state anxiety at 0.05 level of confidence.

Introduction
In the last 54 years judo fighting style and biomechanies studies, starting already from
Japan, walked together along the world’s tatamis [1.2.34..10], In Judo world, many people
speaks about changes and evolution/involution in judo competitions, this last argument comes
both from the change in the evaluations criteria, the refereeing rules and the introduction over the
year of different judo techniques. If we make a comparison among Judo and other Olympic
Sports, itis easy to see that Judo is already on the way to find the best rules for competition, Judo
in the mind of his founder Jigoro Kano, was an educational system able to teach also the esthetic
sense of disciples ( for example a throw who obtains Ippon, or a beautiful Kata performance ), in
this aspect throwing technique is the research of maximum effectiveness respect to the effort
applied. However the esthetic aspect of judo (during performance) is today not well enhanced
and underlined by referee rules. In this paper, we will speak about the evolution of judo fighting
style from the technical point of view, introduc
ng_some special considerations that are able to

improve the general forecasting and analysis capability of this advanced tool. Today the
Continental and National Federations under the International Judo Federation (IJF) directives,
are pushed to use this special tool in centralized way, to save money rationalizing software and
methods . This software for example, in off line analysis, just at the end of each competition
performs a very first centralized gross elaboration of fighting data and these data are sent to all
countries, after that each country develops a personalized analysis in his own way
How to analyse judo competitions,
Technical Steps in competition
It used by most National Federations’ analysts to divide the whole competition in
technical steps: The basic step in the time domain is not fixed, because the analysts normally use
different technical finding to analyse the competition, normally there are used five or six
technical steps.
A) In our paper we present first the subdi ix technical steps (Francini and
coworkers)
1) Matte -a period of interruption, when the referee calls Matte to discontinue any activity
of the judoka:
2) Preparation - a period of movement, observation and non-contact preparation
3) Grip - a period of the match in which the judoka disputes for the best grip (Kumi-kata),
when there is contact with one or both hands:
4) Throws - a period in which the judoka executes a technique or throw during standing
combat (Tachi-waza);
5) Fall - the moment of the fall (Kake) when the analysed athlete falls to the ground being
possible that both judokas fall as a result of the application of technique.
6) Groundwork - any combat that takes place on the ground (Ne-waza), when strangle or
arm-lock techniques are applied with the aim of immobilizing or finalizing an
opponent.
B) The second model comes from England is the Hajime —Matte model proposed among
other by Karen Roberts [12] always in six phases with the following key points:
1) Mobility (shifting alone) - Dynamic Posture and Stance, Distance, Tsugi-Ashi,
Tai-Sabaki, Ashi-Sabakai, Tandoku-Renshu (Coordination)

2) Kumi Kata - Lead Grip / Main Grip , Structure, “First On’ Getting Your Grip, Hiki-Te,

3) Preparation - Action / Reaction, Direction, Timing / Distance, Ashi-Waza

6) Ne waza - Mobility, Control, Connection, Multipurpose Attack, Belief
Subject
This study sample consisted of 40 male field judo players (20 University and 20 national
level) of Maharashtra, India who participated in Inter-University and national judo
championships.
Tools
For measuring the state anxiety of the subjects, questionnaire developed by Martens
(1977) was used. It is a likert type five points scale having a maximum score of 35 and a
minimum score of 09. The higher scores show a high and lower score shows low level of state
anxiety
Procedure
The questionnaire was administered on the subjects during the North Zone Inter-
University judo toumament held at Maharashtra, India in December, 2009 and all India
invitation judo touament at Maharashtra, India in February 2010.
Data Analysis
The collected data were put to statistical treatment computing, “1” to find out the
differences if any, between the experimental groups on the level of state anxiety. The result has
been presented in the following table

Discus
From the results of the study it has been evident that no significant difference was found
between north zone Inter-University and national level field judo players on their level of state
anxiety.
It appears that when the players attain excellence and become mature, their level of
anxiety also lowered down at certain level. Whenever, such mature players perform, their
anxiety level usually remains the same as appeared in cases of Inter-University and national
level judo players. These results have been conformed by Singh, Kumar & Tiwari, (2009) who
compared sports competition anxiety of male and female north zone intervarsity badminton
players and found no significant difference between the experimental groups. Simitarly in
another study Panda, Kaul, & Mittal (2004) observed insignificant difference in national level

Anxiety is considered as one of the greatest problem of modem trends in scientific
knowledge, cultural conflicts and emotional problem of man. Due to these reasons, the level of
anxiety is increasing, Ansiety factors tells us the emotional condition of a mind; we find a fear of
danger of loss or suffering as a prominent feature, more than anything else, a fear which is not
known to us is the reason of anxiety which crates tension and disturbance, Anxiety experienced
during competition, known as competitive anxiety, can be defined as the feeling of apprehension
an individual may experience in response to perceived threats during competitions (Marteins,
1977), Clearly there are situation in sports where athletes will doubt their own ability to put
across a desired impression, either because of their own perceived lack of ability or due to extend
factors. For example, a skilled athlete who feels he needs to win to demonstrate his ability may
still lose to a better competitor or because of factors beyond his control such as illness or injury
In these situation inability to convey the desired impression may be perceived as threat to athlete,
social-identity, which may result in feeling of anxiety

Abstract
The involvement of technology in every field has redefined the structure of every sector
in the past few decades. The rapid change in the technological advancement has bought
noticeable changes in everything we once used to do, Gone are the days when there used to be a
Jong line of customers standing in queue in the bank for transactions, With the introduction of
E- banking’ this sector has faced a change. Similarly, it has transformed the shopping
experience for us. With the arrival of services like Flip cart, and E- shopping websites, we can
have things at our door, Also we don’t witness those long lines of people standing outside the
window of electricity offices. One has to agree with the fact that with the use of intemet life has
become much convenient, No doubt, Educational sector has also not remained untouched with
this change in technology. One can access information about the things he wants with a few
clicks of finger tips, But every coin has two sides, It’s true that technology has added wings to
life, but there is also a need to think what it has snatched away from us? We use e banking, but
how much of us are completely sure about its safety?” We use it for shopping and no wonder if |
come across any E+ fraud while shopping online someday. We use intemet for gaining
knowledge, but the same technology is used by the enemies of humanity to bring devastation to
the world. The present paper intends to talk about the brighter and the darker facets of online
teaching, which has taken a boom in today’s world. And thus will compel us (o think that is “E*
culture a boon or a curse for us?

Introduction
Right from the olden times of “Gurukul’, when learning used to pass on from one
‘generation to another in ‘oral’ form till the present time, it has undergone innumerous changes.
The style of teaching, the way of delivering the information has got complete transformation
with the passing time. Previously, oral and written forms were used by the teachers to deliver
knowledge to the students
Gradually, things changed, And it affected every single thing in both positive and
negative ways. With always some pros and cons in the education system, the wheel of leaning

process kept on revolving. And finally, it bought us to the present time system, which is
equipped with the various tools to simplify the process of education.
Intemet has become an integral part of our day to day lives. It would not be wrong to say
if we add “Intemet or WIFT’ to the basic necessities of life ie. food, clothing and shelter.
Looking at the way the in which the use of internet is exploring in the world, and its increased
use in every field, it seems as if it has occupied a place of vital importance in every comer of life
But every bright day ends with a dark night. And so is technology. No doubt, we can count
innumerable merits of internet in everything we see around ourselves, But behind that every
wonderful thing, is concealed a dreadful face ofits millions of demerits. This compels us to think
that is this new phase of advancement where everything is online is a curse or boon for us? This
has given a rise to a new debate, that online teaching a boon or curse for us and further
generations
Let us ponder over the two sides of this coir the light of some facts discussed below
Advantages of online teaching
. It’s Economical - Every year millions of students from different parts of the world
enroll themselves for various streams, in various colleges, universities and learning
institutions. For many parents, spending on the education of their child becomes a Tug
of war, But at the other hand they it is a desire of every parent to give the best of
academics to their child. So that he or she will not lack in the competitive world.
Parents pay lacks of rupees on the education of their wards to admit them in best
educational institution, If talked about higher education hostels charge a huge sum
amount of money for the facilities they provide to the students. The tuition fees, extra
coaching, fuel expenses, stationary and many more. All these things happen because a
child has to leave his home to meet his academic needs. Where his physical presence
becomes must.
If we provide an altemative to this method and accept the e-learning form of teaching
apart from the internet, the parent would have nothing to spend on. Soft copies of the
books will serve the purpose. No hard copy means no expenses on stationary. For those
who reside in hostels, they will save a huge amount on accommodation. As the child
will study from home. If classes are attended from home, they will not be paying any
transportation charges for the schoo! buses or for any other modes of transport.

abroad, they spend huge amount on visa and other essentials which are needed for them
to reside there, So the sum amount sometimes could even cost a parent crores of rupees.
This may be the total amount of wealth the family has. No doubt, spending on internet
for these many years will definitely not cost at least in crores
Over 6 million Americans are pursuing an online education, The number of online
students has risen every year for the past few years—and the most recent figures
indicate that more than a quarter of all college students are taking an online class. This,
rapid expansion has prompted schools to increase the number of online classes and
topics that they offer, making an online degree easier to obtain, [1]
According to a research made by the U.S. Department of Education: “on average.
students in online learning conditions performed modestly better than those receiving
face-to-face instruction. "[2]
dhood
The importance of time really does matters a lot in our life. There are so many people
Flexibility - ‘Time is money’. This is what we all have been taught since ¢
around the world who want to perceive education but they can’t. As while dealing with
day to day life and running to arrange bread and butter. they become so busy in their
schedules, that even if they have an urge to gain knowledge but they cannot have it with
the time restrictions of colleges / universities and other educational institutions. For
them e-learning could be a revolutionary idea. It could make them grow the way they
‘want, With online lectures it is possible for students as well as for working class to
attend the lectures with their convenience and complete their degree
Jessica, a student at Arizona State University’ said, “I chose to pursue my Electrical
Engineering degree online so that I may have the flexibility in my schedule necessary
to simultaneously focus on my professional development. Traditional universities rarely
offer evening classes for 100% of the courses required for a degree, which makes,
maintaining a consistent work schedule very difficult for students, The expectation for
all students to prioritize education above professional development is not a realistic
model. My program allows me to eam the money I need to support myself and my
education needs, while also gamering valuable experience in my field. Although more
challenging at times, online education is my most viable option as an undergraduate in
my late twenties."[3]
Knowledge Exploration — Unlike current education system, where everyday same
peers sit together and acquire knowledge, the scenario could be very different with

online teaching. Sitting together in a class where people from different localities,
different cultures, societies and nationalities could be a unique experience. Sharing of
knowledge on a similar topic and understanding others perspective could really prove
helpful for the mankind,
Many of us don’t get enough time to mix with our surroundings, We live a public yet
isolated life in 9 to 5 jobs. Responsibilities, tough schedules, work timelines our lives
revolve around these terms. And so nor we get time for family life neither for our own
self, Also we couldn't cultivate our hobbies with such time restrictions, So how could
‘we manage to find time to educate ourselves? E-learning could be a solution for this,
problem. With current pattem of education system there is no scope to know our
student's potential to its full extent. An online course provides an opportunity to get to
know other students via bulletin boards, chat rooms and mailing lists, So no doubt,
online education provides more scope to diversify the source of knowledge and get to
know each other more closely. Meeting the people from all over the world, having
same interests and hobbies, knowing their views about the society we live, hearing from
them about their culture could really be the best exploration one could ever have. Thi
is not possible in the traditional classroom where we spend hours with the people
belonging to the same singing society. Exploration is best possible in online education,
More individual attention — “One who asks a question is a fool for a minute, one who
doesn’t is a fool forever.’ It happened with almost every one of us that somewhere.
sometime in a classroom we had a doubt, But only with the fear of being bullied as a
fool we haven't asked that doubt to the teacher. Every one of us may not feel the same
level of comfort in a physical classroom. Sometimes we may not gather the courage to
ook into the eyes of the teacher and make a question. It all happens because many
students do not feel it comfortable to speak something in actual presence of other
people, The internet eliminates this fear and makes one feel more comfortable. As it
provides the advanced tools where being visible isn’t always necessary. Also a student
can reach to the teacher more comfortably with personal inbox or email to the
instructor.
From teacher’s or instructor's side online teaching may prove beneficial as it gives him
them an opportunity to know their students in more keen way. With a class of forty it
‘may be really a tough task for a teacher to understand the individual potential of a child,
to know his thoughts about the surroundings, to understand
perspective towards the
ENGLISH PART -I/ Peer Reviewed Refereed and UGC Listed Journal No. : 40776 26VOLUME «IX, ISSUE - IV - OCTOBER - DECEMBER - 2020
AJANTA - ISSN 2277 - 5730 - IMPACT FACTOR - 6.399 ([Link])
things. But online class could prove beneficial in this concern as it provides more
chances of getting more interactive with the students and thus making education a
complete different experience for them
advantages of Online teaching
‘* Plagiarism and Cheating — Online learning comes with limitations to monitor the
students. In an actual class apart from academics, their behavioral aspects too are
monitored and sorted out wherever a teacher feels it necessary to counsel them. But in
an online class it is not possible to monitor the students, As online system lacks
physical presence a trainer remains completely unaware of the activities of the students,
This could affect more to school going class of students. As maturity level of the
students is less in this age in students. They do not understand what is good and what
isn’t for them. Also they remain unaware of the massive and destructive power of the
internet if not used wisely. Every year so many teenagers fall in the deep valley of
internet and find themselves completely destroyed with the online hazards,
Also, with online teaching it is not possible to assess the students properly. They may
plagiarize the assignments given to them. This could be a hurdle in the development of
their own skills Students may copy the content and use it for their academic
development, This could not be called as fair assessment by any means
With the help of various advanced tools and applications it has become very easy for
the leaming class to get the things done, This could provoke a deceive attitude in
students, They may lose the innocence and honesty one should have in his/her nature.
Students may get misguided with this system. Again there is a threat, that online
examinations could also get affected with online culture, As it is pretty much easy for
today’s generation to play with the websites, hack them or break the security of
examination sites. So online examinations are more prone to such kinds of hacks
resulting into the poor assessment of students
‘* Effect on social development of students — A School is not just a building, where a
child grows only academically. A School is also responsible for the various dimensions
of the personality of the child. It also develops him/her socially and helps them to
understand our society and surrounding, Gaining good marks and being good in
academics is a completely different thing than being a good human being. When a child
enters the school gate and wishes the first elderly person greetings for the day right
from that moment he begins learning something. He shares his tiffin with his peers and
ENGLISH PART -I/ Peer Reviewed Refereed and UGC Listed Journal No. : 40776 7VOLUME «IX, 18

AJANTA - ISSN 2277 - 5730 - IMPACT FACTOR - 6.399 ([Link])
thus understands the significance of sharing. He plays different sports with the
classmates and understands the importance of team work. They participate in different
curricular and co curricular activities and thus understand the importance of co
ordination. They share their problems with their second parents i.e. their teachers and
Jean to trust the world, They leam to express themselves and stand for what is right.
They participate in sports and understand the importance of physical fitness along with
the mental fitness.
In short, they learn to put everything in practical whatever they had learnt in text books
They develop out of the box thinking and respecting each other's perspective to look at
the things happening around us in society. And no doubt all these things happen
because in classroom, they share a common roof. Under which they prosper in every
possible way, The teachers not just teach, but they give a vision and develop an art of
thinking in students, This is easier for a teacher as he meets his student everyday in
classroom and observes the positive side as well as lacunas in the child, This thing is,
not at all possible with the online education. As it limits the physical access to the
students. This does not contribute to the social growth of the child. This could
ultimately result in the disorders like isolation, depression, frustration and other severe
issues. Online tools give the power of technology but take away the ability of social
expression.
Procrastination —In an online class there is no one to remind you about the starting
time of class, There is no one to remind you of your assignments. You are answerable
to no one for your attendance, And there is no one to threaten or remind you to appear
for exam in time. Online leaning gives us more freedom, perhaps more than we can
handle. And it’s not everyone's cup of tea to mold ourselves in such a disciplined way
To adopt a time punctual attitude and to give targets to own self with honesty and
complete them with the same approach. No restriction of a specific schedule requires
strong commitment on our part. And if one fails to do it . or is unable to fulfill the
promises given to own self while perceiving the knowledge he or she may face the
harsh and unbearable consequences of time.
Only you are responsible for your leaning. Being a teacher or a trainer he can’t force
his students to be disciplined or to study. What he can just do is share a knowledge and
experience: make students acquaint with few tools a hope that they had understood the
ENGLISH PART -I/ Peer Reviewed Refereed and UGC Listed Journal No. : 40776 28VOLUME «IX, ISSUE - IV - OCTOBER - DECEMBER - 2020
AJANTA - ISSN 2277 - 5730 - IMPACT FACTOR - 6.399 ([Link])
content well. Students need to create their own spark and desire for self leaming and to
keep themselves motivated.
Conclusion
We had discussed both the aspects of online teaching, In that we had seen that at one end
it is serving the leaming process with much of ease and convenience to us while at other end it
has got huge demerits, which can keep one far back in competition if he doesn’t have a right
attitude to use this constructive and destructive power of technology. The question remains
unanswered that is it a boon or a curse? It cannot be labeled as disadvantageous forever nor
could it be titled as advantageous. Technology has got power to change the world but it lacks
mind power without which it cannot differentiate between the vice and virtue. A gun if handed
over to any soldier, who is protecting his nation and a same gun if handed over to a terrorist for
the destructive purpose can change the story and make a lot difference, Coz knows no difference
between the soldier and a terrorist, It is the hand and the mind responsible for constructive or
destructive purpose. And so is applicable to the potential of intemet. If used wisely, it can change
the world in a positive way. If not, then too can change the world, but with a scenario that we
would never wish to witness.

Dr. S. Saroja
Assitant Professor, AUCPE, Alagappa University, Karaikudi
The Purpose of the study was to find out, the intervened effect of yoga on Systolic
Pressure among the university sportswomen, The subjects chosen for the study were 30
Sportswomen from Alagappa University, aged between 20 and 25 years. They were randomly
divided into two groups of 15 each, one being the experimental group and the other a control
‘group. The experimental group underwent a scheduled yoga practice for a period of 8 weeks. 6
dayshveek as the control group was on daily regular routine, The status of Systolic pressure was
measured before (Pre-test) and after (Post-test) the experimental period using
Sphygmomanometer and Stethoscope. The data were analyzed statistically for significant
differences. Later applying analysis of variance and analysis of co-variance (in case of
insignificance), significance in variance is shown, and further Scheffe’s test was applied. The
result proves that the yogic scheduled practices have made a significant impact on the Systolic
pressure of the experimental group compared to the control group.
Key words: Yogic Practices, Systolic Pressure, Experimental group, Control group.

Introduction
The technology of today not only advance us to the next phase but increases the risks of
daily survival and makes life in this concrete jungle more complex and competitive making
people at heavy stress and pressure due to which people make life miserable. The spi
L of sports,
is limited only to win laurels, people would only want winners and not losers hence sportswomen
are injected with forced result than a performance oriented result, To stabilize sportswomen from,
this fact of sports arena, we need to establish integration between our head (Thinking), heart
(Feeling) and hands (Behavior), which means discarding discrepancies in our thinking, feeling
and behavior towards sports and its performance. To achieve this, yoga psychology recommends

leading a disciplined lifestyle and developing a positive attitude towards the events of life. Blood
pressure is the lateral pressure exerted by blood on the vessel walls while flowing through it. The
highest level systolic blood pressure to which the arterial blood pressure rises during the systolic
ejection of blood from the ventricle (Lawrence E, Morehouse, 1976). The science of yoga
proclaims that yogic techniques and practices aim at selective as well as wholesome shaping of
human body and mind, Hence a selective package of yogic practices consisting Asana (Physical
Postures), Pranayama (Breathing Practices) and Meditation (Mental Practices) was designed with
performance norms intended to create a positive impacts among the experimental subject on
Systolic pressure, The capsule is expected to assist the enhancement and regulation of the
Systolic pressure so as to suit the tested variable. The degree and range of impacts of the capsule
subjected to statistical analysis is the culmination of the research challenge.
Yoga
The term 'yoga’ is used to indicate both the ‘End! as well as the ‘mean’. In the sense of the
‘End’, the word 'Yoga’ signifies ‘Integration’ at its highest level. All the means that subscribe to
reach this goal also constitute yoga, in the sense of 'yukti' the means or technique, All the
practices, whether high or low are calculated to help the progress of the aspirant towards such
integration are together known by the name ‘yoga’. Yoga is thus an integral subject, which
takes into consideration man as a whole. It does not divide him into watertight compartment as
body, mind and spirit ete
Asana
Asana are those postures with dynamic moments oriented to create physical and
physiological changes in the human system. It works on the principle of sthiram ~ sugam-
asanam (seat). Local compression of various structures affects the whole body during flexing and
extending which in tum tunes the tissues locally so as to stimulate nerves, blood, lymph,
endocrine organs and neural plexus. Thus the wide range of posturing, improving suppleness and
flexibility in the body are achieved particularly toning up the nervous system. Funetions of all
vital organs, stimulation of glands and regulation of the blood flow are achieved by proper
postures and the muscles in our body are thus firmed and strengthened.
Pranayama
Pranayama is the practice of breathing exercises with the three scientific phases namely
Puraka (Inhalation), Kumbhaka (Holding the air in the lungs) and Rechaka (Exhalation) in a

progressive manner that works centrally and the effects spread to the periphery, too. One must
understand that the objective of pranayama is to affect the proper balance between Ida (Moon
Breath) and Pingala (Sun Breath) nadis and to gain the physiological, spiritual upliftment
through the attainment of light and knowledge from the sushumna nadi, From the physical point
of view, a proper balance among the nadis ensures health, strength, peace and longevity
Pranayama have seasonal effects in its technique and practice. Hence the selection of pranayama,
for the practice schedule should be based on the seasonal requirements, During practice the three
phases, inhalation, holding the breath and exhalation should be observed as [Link] (Initial Stage)
[Link] (Intermediate Stage) and [Link] (Advanced Stage) (Iyengar, 2001),
Meditation
Meditation is a systematic method of mental practice that gives a complete mental,
physical and emotional relaxation.
Materials and Methods
The subjects chosen for the study were 30 athletes who represented University of Madras,
Chennai aged between 20 and 25 years. They were randomly divided into two groups of 15 each,
one being the experimental group and the other a control group. The experimental group
underwent a scheduled yoga practice for a period of 8 weeks, 6 days/week as the control group
was on daily regular routine. The status of systolic pressure was measured before (Pre-test) and
after (Post-test) after the experimental period. The data were analyzed statistically for significant
differences. Later applying analysis of variance and analysis of co-variance (in case of
insignificance), significance in variance is shown, and further Scheffe’s test was applied. The
subject was asked to sit comfortably on the chair with the lefl arm slightly flexed and the whole
forearm supported at the heart level on the table, The subject was asked to have weight of the
body on the forearm and the fingers were relaxed. The center of the rubber composer bag was
squarely, placed over the brachial artery and placed to wrap the silk cuff after the manner of the
bandage tuck the ends in neatly avoiding any tucks in wrapping, The systolic and diastolic points
were determined from the different sounds made by blood in the artery as the artery is subjected
to various degrees of compression. The sounds were heard by means of stethoscope applied just
below the armband at the bifurcation of the brachial artery. For Systoli
pressure, pressure was
applied by means of the pressure ball and with the left hand palpating the pulse, the pressure was
continued for about a further 10 mm, above the point of pulse disappearance. The stethoscope

was applied to the brachial artery and releasing the pressure in the rubber composer bag slowly
and evenly by means of slight movement of the release screw of the control valve heard intently
by heart sound. The first sound is usually clear and easy to distinguish; the first regular beat
being heard should be read as the point of systolic pressure.

talk about flexibility and fat percentage of body yoga shows better performance due to practice
of asanas and pranayamas.

Abstract
In the light of the history of biological racism and eugenics in the 19th and 20th
centuries, it is not surprising that many sociologists have expressed concerns about the
contemporary resurgence of biological and genetic accounts of human capacities and
incapacities. They have argued that, like previous appeals to biological nature, such
developments will tend to generate a politics that individualizes human worth, essentializes
variations in human capacities, reduces social phenomena to the aggregate of individual actions,
and discriminates against, constrains or excludes those found biologically abnormal or defective.
Thus they have warned of the dangers of a new determinism ~ ‘geneticism’ ~ based on a
false but seductive mystique of the power of the genes, and entailing all sorts of diserimination
on genetic grounds (Dreyfuss and Nelkin, 1992; Lippman, 1992; Nelkin, 1992; Nelkin and
Lindee, 1995: Nelkin and Tancredi, 1994). Some have suggested that we face the real prospect of
the rebirth of scientific racism grounded in the apparent objectivity of DNA sequences, and of a
new eugenics fuelled not merely by the commercial interests of the biotech companies, but also
by parental desires for a perfect child in an age of manipulated consumerism and reproductive
choice (Duster, 1990; Hubbard and Wald, 1999: Rifkin, 1998). From such a perspective, the
rhetoric that celebrates the potential of biomedicine and biotechnology to improve the health,
welfare and quality of life of individuals obscures the threat that new biological practices of
control will coerce, restrict and even eliminate those whose biological propensities are believed —
by doctors, parents or pethaps even by political authorities ~ to be defective. Some locate the
\wish to control the biological make-up of the population at the very heart of modernity. Thus for
both Giorgio Agamben and Zygmunt Bauman the than atopolitics of population purification is
immanent within the very project of biopolitics: to manage the health of the “body politic”

inescapably requires the control and elimination of “foreign bodies” (Agamben, 1998; Bauman,
1989).
The National Socialism of the German Third Reich certainly exemplifies this link
between the administration of life and the administration of death, For example, in a book of
1936 entitled Rassenhygiene als Wissenschaft und Staatsaufgabe, Ottmar von Verschuer asserts
that politics should mean ‘giving form to the life of the people’ Life itself, the vital reality of a
people, must become the overriding responsibility and criterion that should guide the exercise of
political authority, This requires a nationally organized and politically directed programme to
improve the quality of the national stock and eliminate taints or weaknesses that might threaten
it, Is tactics range from propaganda and education stressing the burden on the race imposed by
those with defective constitutions, to eugenic legislation on 2 Theory, Culture & Society The
assessment of reproductive worth by experts working on behalf of the state, the prevention of
those who are members of defective or inferior sub-populations from reproducing through
sterilization or extermination. Once each life has a value which may be calculated, and some
lives have less value than others, such a politics has the obligation to exercise this judgement in
the name of the race or the nation. All the eugenic projects of selective reproduction, sterilization
and incarceration follow. Indeed, Agamben asserts that “the camp’ is the “biopolitical paradigm
of the modem’: when the collective body of the people becomes the principal resource for
politics, the purging of defective individuals becomes an essential part of the care of life.
As Lene Koch has pointed out, references to eugenics in many contemporary evaluations
of biomedicine have a characteristic rhetorical function. Some invoke eugenics to distinguish the
present from the past: thus contemporary molecular geneticists usually argue that their discipline,
in common with the rest of medicine, has decisively rejected eugenics in favour of
individualized, voluntary, informed, ethical, preventive medicine organized around the pursuit of
health, Others invoke eugenics to link the present with the past, suggesting that despite its
differences, contemporary biomedicine, in combination with genetics, still judges human life and
worth, in so far as it intervenes upon the chances of life in order to eliminate differences coded as
defects, But Agamben and Bauman are undoubtedly correct in suggesting that, over the course of
the 20th century, there was no such clear distinction between preventive medicine and eugenics,
between the pursuit of health and the elimination of unfitness, between consent and compulsion.

AL the start of the 20th century, two great state-sponsored biopolitical strategies were taking
shape across the nation states of Europe and North America and in many of their colonies.
The first sought to maximize the fitness of the population by adding an individualized
attention to the habits of subjects to the earlier hygienic concem with securing the extemal
conditions of health through town planning, sewage systems and the like. Taking its cue from the
moralizing interventions into the habits of the poor that had proliferated in the second half of the
9th century, this ‘neo-hygienist” programme sought to instil habits conducive to physical and
moral health into each individual via the machinery of the domesticated home and the school
linked with such disciplinary and tutelary measures as medical inspection of schoolchildren,
health visitors, clinies and so forth (Donzelot, 1979: Rose, 1985). Health here formed a kind of
transactional zone between political concems for the fitness of the nation and personal
techniques for the care of self. The second great biopolitical strategy also sought to maximize the
fitness of the population, but it privileged one site ~ that of reproduction, Eugenics sought to
improve the body politic and to relieve it of the economic and social burdens of disease and
degeneracy in the future by acting upon the reproductive decisions and capacities of individuals
in the present the many general accounts of eugenics, perhaps the best is Kevles, 1985). Eugenic
programmes used a combination of incentives and compulsion to modulate the wish or ability of
individuals in certain categories to procreate — those judged to have hereditary disease, to be
deranged, feebleminded or physically defective, those who were deemed habitually or
incorrigibly immoral or anti-social, especially those guilty of sexual crimes and alcoholics,
“Positive” eugenic measures ranged from exhortation to family allowances, ‘Negative’
eugenic measures ranged from abortion, through segregation, more or less involuntary
sterilization, to ‘euthanasia’, There were many disputes between those allied with the eugenic
movement and those who argued for preventive medicine and public health education. But the
operational relations between these strategies were more complex: eugenic themes were present
in much politics of public health, and public health and preventive medicine seemed to many to
be compatible with eugenic thought, Infused with a more or less virulent racism, eugenic policies
of forced or coerced sterilization of those considered threats to the quality of the population
notably inhabitants of mental hospitals, the “feeble-minded” and those deemed incorrigibly
immoral or anti-social ~ spread actoss the United States and Europe and reached their bloody
apotheosis in Germany. In the 1920s and 1930s, such sterilization laws were passed in many

states in the United States, in Switzerland, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Norway, Estonia,
Iceland, Mexico (Vera Cruz), Cuba, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, Lithuania, Latvia, Hungary
and Turkey. But coercion was only one element in these strategies, which also sought to modify
public attitudes and individual judgements by education and counselling
Even under Nazi eugenics, at least as far as mental pathologies were concerned,
sterilization and euthanasia were not merely a noxious imposition from above, In the context of
the eugenic domination of the medical and scientific literature, many German doctors took their
own decisions on eugenic grounds: in the context of a widespread campaign of propaganda and
public education, parents often requested eugenic measures for their own children (Burleigh
1994), Thus it is not surprising that sterilization on eugenic grounds continued into the post-war
period in a number of democratic nations. Many scientists and policy-makers saw nationally
planned and state-directed eugenic practices as quite compatible with rationalities of welfare.
Sweden is the exemplar. Here, from 1935 up until 1975, a kind of pastoral eugenics was
practised, within the context of a developing paternalistic welfare state. It was modelled on the
responsibilities of a good shepherd — who must, of course, be prepared to take sometimes harsh
decisions in order to reduce the burden that weak or sickly sheep would otherwise place upon the
flock as a whole (cf: Foucault, 2001), Eugenic arguments, informed by a wish to improve the
quality, fitness and health of the national population, also underpinned pro-natalist policies such
as family allowances and prenuptial examinations in France, and the key actors saw no
contradiction between eugenic and hygienic strategies to combat ‘social evils’. And, at least up
until the 1950s in Britain and the United States, eugenic considerations infused reproductive
advice to prospective parents in the new profession of genetic counselling: such advice was
considered especially important for those subjects with a family history of inherited defects or
disease who lacked the moral capacity to appreciate the implications and hence control their
reproduction, State-organized or state-supported tactics for modification of reproductive
decisions and capacities in the name of the health of the population thus played a part in the
medical and biological politics of many liberal democratic societies across the 20th century in
the name of preventive medicine and public health. However great the moral and political
distance between the euthanasia, compulsory sterilization and genetic counselling, we cannot
simply counterpose positive to negative policies, voluntary to compulsory measures, coercion
and persuasion.

How, then, might one begin to mark out the specificity of our contemporary biopolitics?
‘The biopolitics of the first half of the 20th century, both in its neo-hygienist and in its eugenic
form, involved more than the idea that, other things being equal, healthy individuals were more
desirable than those who were unhealthy. Health was understood as fitness, and the problem was
framed in terms of the political importance attached to the fitness of the national population
considered en masse, as it competed with other national populations. Population fitness was
liable to threats from within and without, and national governments had the obligation to guard
against these threats and to take measures to enhance that fitness through policies that were
formulated by, and enacted through, the apparatus of the state, But, unlike Agamben and
Bauman, I think that contemporary biopolitics differs in crucial respects. As many have pointed
out, the political rationalities of our present are no longer inspired by the dream of the taking in
charge of the lives of each in the name of the destiny of all The ideal of an omnicompetent social
state that would shape, coordinate and manage the affairs of all sectors of society has fallen into
disrepute. The idea of “society” as a single, if heterogeneous, domain with a national culture, a
national population, a national destiny, co-extensive with a national territory and the powers of a
national political government has entered a crisis. The idea of a “national culture” has given way
to that of *cultures’, national identity to a complex array of identity politics. *community” to
communities. In this new configuration, the political meaning and salience of health and disease
have changed. Of course, programmes of preventive medicine, of health promotion and health
education still ake, as their object, “the nation’s health’
Today, however, the rationale for political interest in the health of the population is no
longer framed in terms of the consequences of unfitness of the population as an organic whole
for the struggle between nations. Instead it is posed in economic terms ~ the costs of ill-health in
terms of days lost from work or rising insurance contributions ~ or moral terms ~ the imperative
to reduce inequalities in health, While intemational comparisons are undoubtedly’ still Rose —
The Politics of Life It self significant, their contemporary political function is no longer that of
marking the potential vulnerability ofa polity in geo-political rivalry: rather, they serve as public
indices of the extent to which nations have instituted successful policies for the governance of
health, National health indicators, here, do not measure the fitness of a population as a whole:
they function as aggregates of the health status of individual citizens and families. Further, in
ENGLISH PART -I/ Peer Reviewed Refereed and UGC Listed Journal No. : 40776 4VOLUME «IX, ISSUE - IV - OCTOBER - DECEMBER - 2020
AJANTA - ISSN 2277 - 5730 - IMPACT FACTOR - 6.399 ([Link])
fostering health, the ideal relation of state to people is no longer that aspired to in the “social
state.
The contemporary state does not ‘nationalize’ the corporeality of its subjects into a body
politic on which it works en masse, in relation to the body polities of other states competing in
similar terms, The state is no longer expected to resolve society”s needs for health, The vitality of
the species ~ the nation, the population, the race ~ is rarely the rationale and legitimation for
compulsory interventions into the individual lives of these who are only its constituent elements,
In this domain as in so many others, the images now are of the enabling state, the facilitating
state, the state as animator. On the one hand, the state retains the responsibility that it acquired in
the 18th or 19th century ~ the precise timing varying across national contexts ~ to secure the
‘general conditions for health: regulating the sale of foodstuffs, organizing pure water and sewage
disposal, sometimes mandating the addition of health-promoting elements into the diet
vitamins, fluoride in water and the like, On the other hand, within such a health promoting
habitat, the state tries to free itself of some of the responsibilities that it acquired across the 20th
century for securing individuals against the consequences of illness and accident.
Thus we have seen an intensification and generalization of the health-promotion
strategies developed in the 20th century, coupled with the rise of a private health insurance
industry, enhancing the obligations that individuals and families have for monitoring and
managing their own health. Every citizen must now become an active partner in the drive for
health, accepting their responsibility for securing their own well-being, Organizations and
communities are also urged to take an active role in securing the health and well-being of their
employees and members. This new ‘will to heath’ is increasingly capitalized by enterprises
ranging from the pharmaceutical companies to food retailers, And a whole range of pressure
‘groups, campaigning organizations, self-help groups have come to occupy the space of desires
anxieties, disappointments and ailments between the will to health and the experience of its
absence. Within this complex network of forces and images, the health-related aspirations and
conduct of individuals is governed “at a distance’, by shaping the ways they understand and enact
their own freedom. Perhaps Agamben and Bauman are right in suggesting that the link between
individual and collective in the first half of the 20th century ~ both neo-hygienic and eugenic
took a characteristically ‘modem’ form. Ifso, 1 would argue that within the political rationalities,
that I have termed “advanced liberal’ the contemporary relation between the biological life of the

individual and the well-being of the collective is posed somewhat differently and eliminate or
constrain those individuals bearing a defective constitution, or to promote the reproduction of
‘those whose biological characteristics are most desirable, in the name of the overall fitness of the
population, nation or race. Rather, it consists in a variety of strategies that try to identify, treat,
manage or administer those individuals, groups or localities where risk is seen to be high. The
binary distinctions of normal and pathological, which were central to earlier biopolitical
analyses, are now organized within these strategies for the government of risk. Such strategies
are organized at a number of levels. There are actuarial or epidemiological strategies that seek to
reduce aggregate levels of risk across a population. There are strategies for the management of
high-risk groups. And, increasingly, there are strategies based on identification of, and
preventive intervention for, risky individuals, Risk here denotes a family of ways of thinking and
acting, involving calculations about probable futures in the present followed by interventions
into the present in order to control that potential future. Mortality and morbidity were key sites
for the development of conceptions of the future as calculable, predictable, and as dependent
upon identifiable factors some of which were manageable. The politics of health in the 19th
century was underpinned by the collection and tabulation of numerical information on
populations, and its analysis in terms of frequencies. probabilities. This was the rationale for
hygienic strategies that tried to identify, manage and reduce aggregate levels of morbidity and
mortality by modifying the factors within a geographical area, a habitat or a portion of the life
course that were statistically associated with increased levels of morbidity or mortality. Thus, in
England, Edwin Chadwick used statistical and probabilistic reasoning in his arguments for the
reform of sewage systems, and William Farr compiled evidence on the geographical distribution
of morbidity and mortality to inculpate water supplies in the spread of cholera in the first half of
the 20th century, such ideas about the regularity and predictability of illness, accidents and other
misfortunes within a population were central to the birth of the very idea of society, and to the
emergence, in different countries, of social insurance strategies for the spreading of the risks
entailed in the very activity of living across an insured national population. Over the second half
of the 20th century, biopolitical concerns with the minimization of risks to health ~ control of
environmental pollution, reduction of accidents, maintenance of bodily health, nurturing of
children — became intrinsic not just to the organization of health and social services, but to expert
decisions about town planning, building design, educational practice, the management of

organizations, the marketing of food, the design of automobiles and much more, That is to
for over 150 years, risk thinking has been central to biopolitics. Demands for collective measures
of biopolitical risk management, far from reducing, are proliferating and globalizing. 10 And
strategies aimed at the reduction of the probability of untoward events across a population ~
Rose ~ The Politics of Life Itself targeting risky practices and locales rather than risky or at risk
individuals ~ are spreading to the government of many other kinds of unwanted events ~ notably
crime control. However, again starting in the 19th century, a second set of strategies has also
operated in terms of a type of risk thinking. These attempted to find factors that would enable the
identification of high-risk groups and hence permit authorities to intervene upon those falling
within such groups in a preventive or prophylactic manner. The use of risk profiling to demarcate
risk pools has a very long history, going back to the very beginnings of the insurance industry
Risk profiling, rather than acting “actuarially” or insurantially upon the population at large, uses
probabilistic and epidemiological knowledge to identify factors associated with higher risks of
particular forms of illhealth, reproductive problems or other forms of pathology, and then
allocates individuals to risk pools using an algorithm made up of these factors. In the field of
health, as risk profiling developed from the mid-20th century. it was used to develop risk
profiles, scales and indices, which were used to identify those who fell within groups with a
significantly higher than average risk, and intervene preventively upon them.
Most readers will be personally familiar with such procedures for the allocation of
individuals to risk groups, on a genealogical basis, in terms of a family history of illness or
pathology, and/or on a factorial basis, in terms of combinations of factors statistically linked to a
condition. Men presenting to their doctors with high blood pressure are risk profiled in terms of
age, weight, family history, smoking and so forth, are allocated to a risk group using a scale
based on epidemiological and clinical research, and, if at high risk, may be advised to make
changes to behaviour, diet or lifestyle, or pre-emptively placed on a drug regime intended to
reduce the risk of the occurrence of such disorders. Pregnant women are risk profiled by their
doctor or midwife, and, if allocated to a high risk group for miscarriage, premature birth or
associated difficulties, are subject to enhanced surveillance by midwives and gynecologists. The
earliest reproductive advice based on genetics also operated in terms of the identification of those
who were members of high-risk groups on the basis of epidemiological factors, family history
and probabilities. So did the eugenic programmes of sterilization of “the feeble minded’,

psychiatric patients and sexual offenders in the early 20th century that I have already discussed
In addition, from the early 20th century, in many countries, a number of individuals and
organizations began to give reproductive advice, focusing on prospective marital partners or
would-be parents who had a family history of certain types of disease or disability thought to be
‘hereditary’. They were given advice concerning the risks and probabilities of their children
carrying the condition and advised not to marry, or not to have children, offered a termination of
pregnancy, even in jurisdictions where abortion was illegal on other grounds. Genetic advising in
the first half of the 20th century was an explicitly eugenic tool, In the years after the end of the
Second World War, when a large number of heredity clinies were 8 Theory, Culture & Society
established in many countries, their major goal was to prevent birth defects, and help couples
make ‘eugenic” rather than “dysgenic” decisions’. And in the closing decades of the 20th century,
antenatal screening, for example, testing samples of matemal serum for raised levels of proteins
associated with certain genetic abnormalities, became widespread for pregnant women whose
age or family history placed them in highrisk groups, coupled with the option of termination, A
few doctors and geneticists still argue that any responsible citizen who believes that they carry
‘genetic defects should try to reduce the risk of transmission to future generations such statements
lead some critics to diagnose an implicit eugenics in the very idea of genetic counselling,
11 But I think it is necessary to be more specific about the make-up of such contemporary
logics of control.12 Decision making in the biomedical contest takes place within a set of power
relations that we could term ‘pastoral’. I have referred to Swedish eugenics as pastoral, in a sense
close to that developed by Foucault - a form of collectivizing and individualizing power
concerned with the welfare of the “flock* as a whole, But this contemporary pastoral power is not
organized or administered by ‘the state” ~ even if we use this term to encompass the whole
complex of legislative provision, state-funded research organizations and national committees of
enquiry into the medical and ethical aspects of the new biomedicine. It takes place in a plural and
contested field traversed by the codes pronounced by ethics committees and professional
associations, by the empirical findings generated by researchers, the attitudes and criteria used by
employers and insurers, the tests developed and promoted by psychologists and biotech
companies, the advice offered by self-help organizations, and even, one might add, the critical
perspectives contributed by religious organizations and sociological crities. Crucially, this
pastoral power does not concem itself with the flock as a whole. For at least three decades,

professionals involved in this work have explicitly rejected the view that they are, or should be,
seeking to limit the reproductive capacities of those at risk of passing an inherited condition or
disability to their offspring, let alone the suggestion that they are, or should be, concemmed with
the contribution of individual biological characteristics to future population quality, or even the
future cost to the nation of caring for children with disabilities. But this pastoralism does not
simply entail a priest-like shepherd knowing and mastering the soul of the individual troubled
sheep. Perhaps one might best describe this form of pastoral power as relational. It works
through the relation between the affects and ethics of the guider ~ the genetic counsellors and
allied experts of reproduction who operate as gatekeepers to tests and medical procedures ~ and
the affects and ethics of the guided — the actual or potential parents who are making their
reproductive decisions, and upon their networks of responsibility and obligation. These new
pastors of the soma espouse the ethical principles of informed consent, autonomy, voluntary
action and choice, and nondirectiveness But in the practices of this pastoral power, such ethical
Rose ~ The Politics of Life liself principles must be translated into a range of micro-
technologies for the management of communication and information. These blur the boundaries
of coercion and consent.
They transform the subjectivities of those who are to give consent or refuse it, through
discursive techniques that teach new ways of rendering aspects of oneself into thought and
language, new ways of making oneself and one’s actions amenable to judgement. And they
reshape the telos of these encounters in specific ways, for example in terms of psychological
notions of mental health, or in terms of the recent, but currently ubiquitous idea of “quality of
life’ - each now defined within, and measured by, any number of rating scales. Nonetheless, this
pastoral power differs from Christian pastor ship, where the vectors of power flowed one way
requiring the submission of the sheep to the will of the shepherd, and the internalization of that
absolute will in the form of self-examination and sels

entail intense bi-directional affective entanglements between all the parties to the encounter, and
indeed generate multiple “virtual” entanglements with parties not present ~ distant relatives,
absent siblings, potential offspring. In these entanglements, the ethical relations of all the
subjects to themselves and (o one another are at stake ~ including the experts themselves. The
consultation acts as an intensifier of ethicality. It mobilizes affects of shame and guilt, and of the
respective claims, scope and limits of freedoms for the self and obligations to others. It activates

the conflicts within the counsellors between the ethics of care and the ethics of guidance, It
requires the counsellors (o fold into themselves, in a way thal is by no means trivial or transient,
some of those anxious and fateful un decidability’s that possess those whom they counsel. It is,
true that — whatever the explicit agenda of non-directive genetic counselling — evidence suggests,
that those who were counselled about their membership of risk groups before the availability of
the kinds of predictive genetic testing I discuss below, were less likely to have children, But the
perils of the contemporary biopolitics of group risk are not a repetition of the past.
Rather than a wholesale politics of population management, these are more mundane yet
no less hazardous, There are technical problems, for example the validity and appropriateness of
the factors used to calculate the risk profiles through which individuals are allocated to risk
groups, their generalizability to others given national and cultural variations, the effects of
changes since the time when the scales were constructed and so forth, There are the problems of
false positives and false negatives that are built into the very project of applying probabilistic
reasoning to determine the treatment of individuals ~ these have become infamous in decision
making practices concerning compulsory treatment or detention of
ky” psychiatric patients,
and those arising from advice to women with a family history of breast cancer who may be
contemplating prophylactic mastectomy. There are the problems that flow from the fact that,
once known to fall within a risk group, the individual may be treated — by others and by
themselves — as if they were, now or in the future, certain to be affected in the severest fashion.
‘These problems have been much discussed in relation to discrimination in insurance and.
They also arise when risk assessments are linked to preventive interventions. We can see
this where individuals allocated to a high-risk group for cancer or heart disease, despite being
healthy, must nonetheless conduct their lives under the shadow of medical authority if they are to
be ‘responsible’, We can see it in the area of behavioural risk, in the projects for preventive
screening and intervention into the lives of young people in the inner cities at risk of violent,
aggressive or offending behaviour, which tend to justify preventive intervention into the lives of
“the usual suspects”, that may itself be the first step in the moral career of spoiled identity
In addition, there are the ethical problems that arise in the relation between experts and
their clients when trust in numbers replaces other forms of trust ~ that is to say, when decisions
a5 to action seem to arise automatically from judgements ‘black boxed” within an “objective”
calculating device ~ whose authors are not available for debate and contestation I discuss some

of these in relation to psychiatry in. And, as innumerable accounts of “the risk society” have
pointed out, risk registers and databases have the potential for an expansion and refinement of
strategies of control based upon surveillance. It is not surprising, then, that there is much
professional optimism about the impact of recent advances in genomics, which seem to have the
potential to shift the focus of regulatory strategies from group risk to individual susceptibility
Diagnoses of susceptibility attempt to move beyond the allocation of individuals to a risk group
on the basis of factors and probabilities, to a precise identification of those particular individuals
who are vulnerable to specific conditions or behavioural problems
Thus, while epidemiological evidence may show that individuals in certain groups carry
an elevated risk for specific conditions ~ as for example in sickle cell anaemia ~ the aim is not
simply to act upon that group en masse: group membership is merely the first step towards
identifying and treating susceptible individuals. Amniocentesis was first used to detect major
abnormalities in the number of chromosomes or their shape in the foetus ~ as in trisomies such as
Dovwn’s syndrome or abnormalities in the number of X and Y chromosomes. But samples of
amniotic fluid, and now chorionic villus sampling, can be used to detect abnormalities in the
DNA itself, or the presence of the specific sequences or markers that are associated with either
an increased probability of developing a disorder, or in some cases (for example Huntington’s
disease) the certainty
Genetic tests are available for a growing number of diseases thought to arise from ‘single
‘genes”:Huntington’s, fragileX, sickle cell, cystic fibrosis and phenylketonuria, And, increasingly,
tests are being developed which look for the presence of specific base sequences ~ markers or
polymorphisms or SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) ~ that significantly increase the
likelihood of developing a particular condition: Alzheimer’s disease, some forms of breast
cancer, certain types of heart disease. Since it is now routine for doctors as Rose ~ The Politics of
Life Itself well as geneticists to consider that any individual's vulnerability to any disease has a
‘genetic component, consisting mostly of multiple genes and their interactions amongst
themselves and with other environmental and biographical factors, the gaze of susceptibility is
potentially unlimited. In its new form of suscepti
ty, biomedical risk thinking has become
individualizing and clinical. It penetrates behind and beneath even those who live their lives “in
the silence of the organs” to discover within them the signs, seeds, portents, predispositions of
pathology to come, While in the moment of eugenics it was the population that was ‘at risk” from,

the risks posed by the reproduction of specific groups or sub-populations, what is created here is
‘what lan Hacking might term a new and interactive’ human kind”: the individual biologically
increasing genetically ~ risky or at risk. Now it seems that ‘smart’ programmes of pre-emptive
intervention can be devised that target only those individuals predisposed to a particular
condition. This thinking underpins the types of genetic counselling that have becomes routine
since the 1970s: the screening of pregnant women in “highrisk’ groups: the widespread use of
amniocentesis to detect foetuses with genetic abnormalities; the offer of therapeutic abortion for
foetuses who test positive: and the increasing resort of “high-risk” parents to TVF coupled with
pre-implantation diagnosis in such situations. But the promise of certainty is illusory, In almost
all conditions, including those that are implacable such as Huntington's, genetic diagnosis of
individual susceptibilities is still, ineseapably, probabilistic. In many cases it is simply that the
risk of developing a disease is increased by the presence of certain alleles, sequences or markers
Even when a gene sequence is identified that makes it certain that an individual will develop a
disease, there is no certainty as to when it will manifest itself, or with what severity. Thus these
new practices for the identification of susceptibilities open a space of uncertainty
This is the expanding realm of the asymptomatically or presymptomatically ill — those
individuals carrying the markers or polymorphisms of susceptibility who are neither
phenomenologically or experientially “sick” or ‘abnormal’. While the calculation of risk often
seems to promise a technical way of resolving ethical questions, these new kinds of susceptibility
offer no clear-cut algorithm for the decisions of doctors or their actual or potential patients. In
this space, biopolitics becomes ethopolitics. Biopolitics as Molecular Polities Eugenics was
‘grounded in the truth discourse of the boil

‘Abstract
This research is focus on importance of yoga and its positive impact on our brain, mind
and consciousness. If you practice yoga, then you most likely have experienced the “high” that
yoga offers that feeling like you are grounded in your body, calm, connected, clear, and centered.
In this
space, it might feel like a dark cloud that was following you around prior to class has
suddenly disappeared. Or, that negative thought, emotion, or physical sens
ion eating away at
you has miraculously subsided. You float away from your practice, and no unwanted experience
can detract from your calm and peace. This is why yoga is often touted for its calming and
relaxing effects on both mind and body. Above and beyond the calm and relaxation, you also
may have experienced a deeper connection between your mind and body, as well as more
intimacy with your internal experiences, e.g, thoughts, emotions and physical sensations. And,
pethaps you have noticed that with this deeper connection and intimacy comes less judgment and
evaluation of those internal experiences. This process translates into that state of bliss we
experience afier our practice, and arguably leads to less suffering in our lives (aka emotional
health and well-being), Hence, yoga for mental health has received increasing attention from
both yogis and scientists alike, with the benefits of yoga for mental health traversing several
areas ranging from mood and anxiety disorders to stress reduction.

Introduction
The Yoga is an Art and Science of healthy living. Yoga is an essentially a spiritual
discipline based on an extremely subtle science, which focuses on bringing harmony between
mind and body. The word “Yoga’ is derived from the Sanskrit root “YUJ’, meaning ‘to join’ or
“to yoke" or “to unite”. As per Yogic scriptures the practice of Yoga leads to the union of
individual consciousness with that of the Universal Consciousness, indicating a perfect harmony
between the mind and body, man & Nature. According to modem scientists, everything in the
universe is just a manifestation of the same quantum firmament, One who experiences this
oneness of existence is said to be in yoga, and is termed as a yogi, having attained to a state of

freedom referred to as Mukti, Nirvana or Moksha. Thus the aim of Yoga is Self-realization, to
overcome all kinds of sufferings leading to ‘the state of liberation’ (Moksha) or “freedom
(Kaivalya). Living with freedom in all walks of life, health and harmony shall be the main
objectives of Yoga practice. The "Yoga" also refers to an inner science comprising of a variety
of methods through which human beings can realize this union and achieve mastery over their
destiny. The practice of Yoga is believed to have started with the very dawn of civilization. The
science of yoga has its origin thousands of years ago, long before the first religions or belief
systems were born, In the yogic lore, Shiva is seen as the first yogi or Adiyogi, and the first Guru
or Adi Guru

Benefits of Yoga
1. Stress Reduction
Stress is a major epidemic in our society that can create a “hyper vigilance” in our mind
and body, and impairs our ability to come from a less reactive place during times of increased
stress. Yoga functions like a self-soothing technique in that it alters the stress response system,
helping to “tame and quiet down the nervous system. In this way, the mental benefits of yoga
are witnessed with the reduction of stress by way of decreased cortisol (stress hormone) levels in
our body
2. Yoga Nurture our Positive Psychological
The link between yoga and positive psychology is a strong one; although yoga started
with a slightly different focus, it is now commonly practiced in the West as an attempt to
enhance well-being. Of course, well-being is a core topic in positive psychology. which explains
the frequent use of yoga in intervention and exercises,

and triggers that adults do, but without all of the decades of experiences to teach them what is
most effective and the social awareness to know what is appropriate. In addition, the rise of
constant social media has made it even more difficult to simply sit quietly and think, or even sit
quietly and just exist for a few moments. Children are also dealing with as much pressure as ever
to succeed in school, and perhaps even more pressure from the added competition that our
increasingly globalized world introduces to them

Although yoga can have some fabulous benefits for children, it can also be extremely
effective for improving both the physical and mental health of the elderly, Of course, some of the
moves and poses are modified to suit more fragile bodies, but they still provide a challenging and
invigorating experience for the elderly. In Taiwan, researchers sought out elderly residents in a
long-term care facility who were diagnosed with mild to moderate dementia and invited them to
join a gentle yoga program. The program lasted for 12 weeks, with three 55-minute sessions per
week, The experimental group participated in the yoga classes while the control group
maintained their usual daily activities.
Conclusion
Thus, this research mainly focus on benefits of yoga and its positive impact on our
healthy life. Yoga is the medicine for nearly every problem, As you practice yoga, it does not
only help you to improve your physical body but also helps in maintaining your inner peace of
mind and relaxing your mind, Moreover, yoga is not just a one-day practice, it’s a lifelong
commitment, The more you practice yoga, the more you are benefited. If you practice yoga daily
you will enjoy a peaceful and healthy lifetime, In the present Yoga has just become a type of
physical practice but it is a lot more, But, for the further practice, you have to be perfect both
physically and mentally through the daily practice of yoga
