The purpose of Yoga to achieve oneness with God or Hari - the last supreme destination for Eternal peach and contentment. The individual human being is a combination of both a physical body and a soul. We wear the physical body temporally like we wear our clothes. Our self is different, it does not match with what we see in the mirror or in water. In mirror or water we see our embodied self. How one can know one self (soul & atman)? It is what Yoga is all about. Yoga is a practical way to life which anybody can live. It is not confined to any particular group or community. It is a struggle to know oneself in actuality for an spiritually awakened person, who is curious to know about what the real purpose of human life is, who is tired of pain associated with the repeated cycle of birth and death.
