An talk in Hindi at the Beach Office of Sri Aurobindo Society, Pondicherry, 2016.
This talk is given to the students and the speaker throws light on some fundamental questions of life and yoga. The meaning of yoga literally is to join. But why do we need to join and with what, – because we are incomplete and imperfect, limited beings without joining ourselves to the now hidden divine aspects within us. What we do not have with us? – Wisdom, peace, wideness, ananda, strength to name a few. The world set other goals like money, name, fame, material possessions.

When we connect ourselves with God, these qualities spontaneously manifest in us which make our life richer and beautiful.
