'This book is a treasure of delights for anybody interested in Philosophy. 'Humanics' is the combined aspect of physics, psychophysics, psychics, meta-psychics and meta-physics of human. The art, science and philosophy of yoga that has remedy, reformation and evolution has bequeathed to man of any age and any era.

Yoga is an endless pursuit of knowledge. All emotions that man faces, like pain, pleasure, love, hatred, devotion and profanity, are on account of mind. The mind is easily vulnerable to emotions and circumstances. Thus, Yoga is development of an internal capacity to help the mind keep restrained from all fanciful, violent and turbulent radiations and establish it in placidity.'
