How to reach liberation through asanas?

This is an odd question asked by several people who come to the institute. We need to realise that liberation is an internal and personal endeavour, and that there is no particular asana routine it. Our mind is a storehouse of all the memories from all our previous lives and they present themselves as our Vasanas and Samskaras in this life.We need to first rise above them by sharpening our intelligence in the physical realm. Asana practice can help in honing our intelligence and awareness. But, it is a slow and long process which demands a lot of discipline and consistency.  Only after we have achieved this physical awareness and intelligence, can we move towards abstract things like samadhi and liberation.
