The meaning of Yoga, in its literal, Post-Classical sense, means "union," and is derived from the Sanskrit root word, yuj, meaning "to yoke" or "to unite." Hence, Yoga reunites all opposites - mind and body, stillness and movement, masculine and feminine, sun and moon - in order to bring reconciliation between them.
Yogis consider that we are all searching for happiness and that is everybody's main goal. They will find an inner peace that will radiate outwards and life will become one of greater joy and experience.
In yogic terminology, the term “dukha” is used to collectively imply sources of suffering such as anxiety, distress, depression, pain, disease, grief, stress, etc. Its opposite is “sukha” which denotes all bliss and joy. Life ordinarily consists of “dukha” and “sukha”. So in a healthy life, “dukha” is undesirable and should be avoided, and improve “sukha”and create a happier life.
