| Yoga is a Sanskrit word meaning; to yoke together, to unite, to facilitate
two things to work in union. In this philosophical system the word yoga
stands to mean the aim of humankind - the union of human with God. St.
Paul referred to this union as, 'having the mind of Christ' and Jesus
indicated his union with God when he stated, 'I and the Father are one'
and, 'the Father is in me and I in the Father, and you in me'. Jesus
was a Yogi, a person in union with God - and Yoga Philosophy is the
philosophy, or rather psychology, of humankind's quest to union with
God. |
