“The soul has been forgetful of God since eternity. True Yog
is that which unites the soul with the Supreme Divinity.”
- Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj
The word “Yoga” means “to unite” and is derived from the Sanskrit word “yuj,” which means “to join.” So, the aim of Yoga is to yoke the jīva (individual soul) with Bhagavān (Supreme Soul). Union with the Absolute frees the soul from the veil of Maya, allowing it to realize its true nature.
The great Yogi Shree Aurobindo said: “Yoga is the process of all-round development of humans.” To become perfect human beings, we need the development of many aspects of our personality—physical, mental, social, educational, and spiritual. All these are enhanced through Yoga.
Well said by Jagadguru Kripaluji Maharaj. Today the word Yog is very famous but nobody knows the real meaning of Yog. As said by Maharajji, that yog means to unite the soul with the divinity. But today the yog is not practised but it is pranayam a physical exercise and unknown people are beleiving that it is Yog.
