Debra Diamond, curator of the exhibit: "Yoga constantly transforms and simultaneously gets imbedded in culture. The exhibit explores yoga’s goals and means of transforming body and consciousness, its profound philosophical foundations, its role within multiple religious and secular arenas, and the roles that yogis played in society, from divinized teachers to militant ascetics. That being said, the path of modern yoga is still being laid."
Included in the exhibit is the Thomas Edison film, Hindoo Fakir (1906)
