Thankyou Geeta
“My own definition of yoga is that it is a restraint of mental modifications, which is the result of restraints brought about by controlling the sense of perception, the movement of the muscles and nerves, the oscillations of the intelligence, andthe interference of the “I” consciousness to a place where no individual “I” exists.
Samadhi (union) is the goal of yoga, according to the theoretical explanation of the shastras, but I think that the real goal is somewhere deeper, where the pure being exists. The aim of yoga, as I see it, is ultimately to reach the inner sanctum of eternal truth, which is a long process of transformation.
Small aims produce small gains that can lead a person to the final goal. Through a faithful practice of yoga, a person will develop compassion, patience, sensitivity, contentment, vigor, faith, and non-attachment, all of which can be viewed as achievements along the path to discovering the inner being.”
