-The Sanskrit term '''''yoga''''' means “divine union,” or the union of you and God—hence “''yo-ga''.” Many practices foreign to the Western world are entered into by the Eastern seeker for union with the Higher Self. Some of these practices demand stern disciplines; in fact, they may be considered austere by Westerners.

 The word ''yoga'' has the same root as the English word yoke. Thus yoga can be understood to be a method of spiritual union. [[Jesus]] said, “Take my yoke upon you and learn of me;... for my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”<ref>Matt. 11:30.</ref> Perhaps he was really saying, “Take my yoga upon you.” For Jesus had a yoga. He followed a specific discipline, in which he was trained in his travels in the East.
