The Sanskrit roots
Yoga - Union; specifically, a "yoking" of the self by spiritual discipline, a method of training designed to unite the human spirit with ultimate reality and release a person from the limits of the individual ego.
Jaya - Vanquishes; [from thåe verbal root ji to conquer] conquering, winning, victorious. As a noun, conquest, victory, hence a favorite proper name, applied to gods and goddesses, the sun, etc.
YogaJaya - Union vanquishes; uniting oneself with ultimate reality as a way of overcoming personal limitations.
The relevance of yoga today
Today as we have entered the 21st century, a spiritual heritage is being reclaimed of which yoga is very much a part. While yoga's central theme remains the highest goal of the spiritual path, yogic practices give direct and tangible benefits to everyone regardless of their spiritual aims. The underlying principles of yoga provide a real tool to combat social malaise. At a time when the world seems to be at a loss, rejecting past values without being able to establish new ones, yoga provides a means for people to find their own way of connecting with their true selves. Through this connection with their real selves it is possible for people to manifest harmony in the current age, and for compassion to emerge where hitherto there has been none.
In this respect, yoga is far from simply being physical exercises, rather, it is an aid to establishing a new way of life which embraces both inner and outer realities. However, this way of life is an experience which cannot be understood intellectually and will only become living knowledge through practice and experience.
-Swami Satyananda Saraswati
