But this assertion gives rise to yet another set of misconceptions. There is considerable disagreement about the stand that yogasanas are a part of yoga. Those who give more importance to the physical aspect of yoga believe that yogasanas are the most vital part of yoga. Others who are more interested in the spiritual or metaphysical aspect of yoga do not give much credence to yogasanas and follow the spiritual aspect more vigorously. As it is erroneous to perceive one part as a whole, the notion that a certain part has greater significance than the other is equally misleading. The relationship between yoga and yogasanas however cannot be denied. A healthy composite body requires balanced and coordinated working of different parts and organs. Similarly, the true potential of yoga can be unleashed only with the powerful interplay of different aspects of yoga. Each part has its own importance and its significance for the whole cannot be underestimated.
