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. | The word ''yoga'' has the same root as the English word yoke.
