The meaning of Yoga
The underlying purpose of all the different aspects of the practice of Yoga is to reunite the individual Self with the Absolute or pure consciousness - in fact,
the word Yoga means literally "joining".
Union with this unchanging reality liberates the spirit from all sense of separation, freeing it from the illusion of time, space and causation, letting us be ourselves.
