Today's youth is the future of tomorrow's country and the next generation will be based on their conduct and thoughts. Many spiritual principles have been propounded in yogic texts. Who believe that by using these, personality can be improved. Aim: The objective of the presented research work is to study the effect of yoga on the quality-of-life level in university students. Methodology: A total of 120 participants have been selected, 60 higher-level students were selected in the first experimental group and 60 higher-level students were selected in the control group.
