Read the passage below and answer the question that follows.

From time to time I hear someone say, ‘But Yoga comes from India, therefore, it is something “foreign” and I don’t see how we can make use of it. Of course this is foolishness. It is like saying “I don’t want to listen to the music of Bach because he was a German, or it is like someone in India declaring ‘ We don’t want to use electricity, because Thomas Edison was an American’. Yoga is universal. It is a priceless gift from the East and its benefits are available to all of us who would accept them.

It is very tragic that many of us, not knowing the facts, have for many years confused. Yogis (a person who practiced (‘Yoga’ is a Yogi’) with a certain less of people in India who are known as a Fakirs have gained extraordinary control of their senses out of use this control to subject their bodies to abnormal conditions. For examples, they sit on the famous ‘bed of nails’, stick pins and swords into their bodies, allow themselves to be buried alive’  and perform other such supernatural feats. They are generally persons of low mentality’ and they perform these supernatural things for honey, food favour and so forth. These Fakirs should never be confused with Yogis: nor snake charmers for Indian hope trick practitioners have anything do with Yoga. Yoga is a method of natural development for body and mind and a true Yogi will never permit anything harmful or unnatural to be done to his body or mind.

Finally, there is the question of religion. I am often asked, Is Yoga a religion?” My answer is ‘Definitely not!” for us, Yogi is dynamic system physical exercise and a practical and valuable philosophy to apply to every day life, in short, Yoga is a way of life and everyone, regardless of his religion, can benefit greatly from anyone or all aspects of Yoga.

Which of the following statement is true according to the passage?
