Title: The Concept of Yoga and its Goal Authors: Lalnunpuii, Emily F Abstract: Yoga is being popularized more than it has ever been these days. Its popularity caused a great deal of enthusiasm among the Hindus while it stirs a kind of anxiety or rather threatening among the non-Hindus as it is thought to be a plan for conversion to Hinduism. There is a general conception that yoga is about Hinduism but what it really is, except for the certain postures and answers to other questions relating to it are not generally known. The aim of this paper is to analyze Yoga thoroughly and try to answer questions relating to it, so that every reasonable man will be able to reason their way to truth and decide for themselves what to do and what not to do. In doing so, we will have to start right from the very beginning of all questions- What is Yoga? And ends with the question- Is Yoga for you? While trying to answer these questions this paper explains about the Classical Indian Philosophy, Ultimate reality, Moksha, how S mkhya and Yoga are related, about Citta, Citta Vritti, the five Kle as or sources of afflictions, Eight-fold path or Ashtanga yoga of Patanjali, purpose of Yoga. The final question attempted is whether one’s summum bonum is in accordance to that of the goal of Yoga. This will answer to the question- whether Yoga is for oneself or not.

Title: SOCIO-ETHICAL STRUCTURE OF PRE- COLONIAL MIZO Authors: Lalnunpuii, Emily F Abstract: History has witnessed many great individuals of tremendous importance, who have carried out great responsibilities. Such individuals indeed have given great efforts in carrying out their responsibilities. The results of their actions had great impacts in their present times as well as the future. However, the duties fulfilled by such men of honour became meaningful only because of the others or their supporters who gave them acknowledgments and who in turn carried out their corresponding duties. It was only because of the joint effort of these two factors that gave rise to fruitful consequences. Likewise, in every society, one cannot fail to see the importance of leaders whom we call kings or chiefs. However, just as important as them, are the other members of the society who play different roles. Every member in their own capacities has a certain set of roles to play. It is only when each member carries out their duties diligently that the society functions impeccably. This shows the SOCIO-ETHICAL STRUCTURE OF PRE- COLONIAL MIZO Dr. Saithanmawii Zote Assistant Professor, Department of Philosophy Pachhunga University College, Aizawl Emily F.

Pre-colonial Mizo society was also this kind of society.
