What is the true definition of yoga?

from For Seekers by Seekers · host Rajesh

In the West, yoga means asanas/ postures. Period. In the East (India), it can mean anything - Bhakti (devotion), Dhyana (contemplation/ meditation), Raja (Spiritual practices), Pranayama (Breath control) or Karma yoga (doing our duties without expecting a particular outcome). But in this episode we present the definition of yoga as discussed in a book on Vishnu Sahasranamam: it is when we contemplate on the unity of the individual enlivening soul in us with the universal supreme consciousness Brahman!
