How shall we go about developing a Yoga Science?  We are departing from the limits of conventional science, but the tools and measures we use in Yoga Science will be those whose usefulness have been well established by science to date; and we intend to develop new tools and new methods as well.  With our objectives being the practical achievement of “effectiveness” rather than “proof” per se, we hold our tools and theories to be relative, our commitment to them remaining so long as they are actually useful. As Yogi Scientists we are free to write some new rules.  After all, our framework is different, and we are oriented to practical, life level results.  Our priorities will be set by our shared experience, because the world needs help and we believe we can best contribute by working within the perspective of Yoga.  We need not get involved in philosophical issues about science because we are using the tools of science with a pragmatic approach.  Thus, this new science will emerge through our creative, practical collaboration.  Beginning this enterprise may require a willingness to live on the edge scientifically and intellectually, but it is on firm ground humanly and morally.  This is our starting point.
