Abstract
Today yoga has become a very popular health science as well as fitness routine all over the world, drawing innumerable people into the practice. However if the yoga practitioners (sadhakas) are aware of the rules and regulations as well as the precautions then the benefits will be manifold. Awareness of the qualities or prerequisites of the yoga practitioner will help in the fast progress and mastery of the yoga techniques. Similarly, knowledge about the various challenges or obstacles one might face will forewarn the practitioners so that he/she is well prepared to overcome them. Yoga training and teaching institutions should take good note of them and impart rightly to the yoga students.
