 Many modern Yoga teachers define Yoga as union. Union with
what? Many definitions have been given. But the fact remains that
most of us mean body exercises, when we say Yoga. It is about
manipulation of the body, it is about fitness of the body, it is
about ‘control’ of the body and its instincts. That is the domain
of Hatayoga.


So, what is this union about?

Patanjali Yoga goes a step further. It talks about moving
beyond the body and mind. It talks about the soul. And if at all you
can use such a word, it talks about uniting with your real self, or
attaining Kaivalya – a state where the soul is completely free.


But is that the end? That is what we will be seeing in this
episode.
