| Σύνοψη: | The very word yoga has to do with holiness. Yoga derives from the root yuj which means to unite, to integrate and to make whole. Holiness, on the other hand is also derived from wholeness. Neither yoga nor holiness has much to do with pious religiosity.

All spiritual effort is for the purpose of that recovery, for re-membering the fragmented self and for abiding in the state of recollection. |
