Now, what is yoga? The root verb is 'Yunj,' which means to unify; not to add, but to unify. Suppose there is sugar and there is water. If you add sugar to water, what will happen? The sugar will unify with the water: you will not find the sugar in a separate form after this unification. When the unit consciousness becomes one with the Supreme One, with Parama Purus'a, the unit no longer exists. It becomes one with the Supreme. The little boy 'A' or the little girl 'B' will become Parama Purus'a. That is unification.
When you become one with Parama Purus'a, you are getting everything, but you are losing nothing. You are losing only your little name, you are losing the name of your little 'I' and nothing else, and in return you are getting the Supreme 'I', the big 'I': this is Yoga in the spiritual sphere.
Some people think that Yoga means a particular exercise. No, no, no: Yoga does not mean exercise, Yoga means unification. It is the supreme definition of Yoga.
Yoga is the path of progress, the path of development for each and every human being. Nobody can keep himself or herself away from the path of Yoga. Yoga is Dharma. So in individual life we should practice Yoga, and in collective life we should encourage others to practice Yoga.
It is the solution to all human ailments in the physical stratum, in the psychic stratum and also in the spiritual stratum.
(A'nanda Vacana'mrtam XIV, 80) Shrii Shrii Anandamurti
