Why Yoga Doesn't Always Mean Union

Why Yoga Doesn't Always Mean Union

Here’s the recording of a recent talk, which was streamed online and includes Q&A. Here’s a brief introduction from Yoga Alliance, which hosted the workshop: “Unpack the importance of distinctions with Daniel Simpson, a tutor at the Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies and author of The Truth of Yoga. In this workshop, he details how Patañjali’s yoga is not about union. Rather, its ultimate goal is detachment from matter. He also discusses how a dualistic system can be helpful with worldly objectives, from making wise choices to building relationships."
