Sage Patanjali is revered as the father of Yoga, having compiled various aspects of the practice into a unified treatise known as the Yoga Sutra.

• Origin of Yoga – While Patanjali systematized Yoga, the origin of Yoga is attributed to Lord Shiva, who is said to have taught the practice to the Saptarishis (the seven great sages) in ancient times.
• Avatar of Shesha – Sage Patanjali is also believed to be an incarnation of Shesha, the primordial serpent who serves Lord Vishnu, symbolizing divine wisdom and support.
• Contributions to Ayurveda – Besides Yoga, Patanjali made significant contributions to Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of medicine, furthering the holistic approach to health and wellness.
• Depiction – Patanjali is often depicted sitting in a meditative posture, with his chakras awakened and a multi-hooded Shesha (the serpent) in the background, symbolizing his divine incarnation and spiritual enlightenment.
