The word “yoga” comes from the corresponding Sanskrit word is “yuj” and means “to unite.” The Sanskrit is also the source of the word “yoke,” which is the name of a farm tool, and can also mean “to join” or “to unite.” Specifically, the word “yoga” can be explained as meaning “uniting the innermost self.” Yoga techniques are a means of cultivating the body and mind, and the ultimate goal of this practice is to attain one's highest potential. From the soul (the self) to nature (in Buddhism, wholeness or the highest form of consciousness) and unity (the unity of the universe and the soul). There is an old Hindu saying that states: on earth there are only two ways to surpass the path of the sun (reach eternity): abandon this world and practice yoga or sacrifice your life on the battlefield. In this exhibition the figure (self) stands for what must be dragged or fused into a spiritual space beyond this world (in Buddhism, wholeness or the highest form of consciousness). This is actually a different kind of intrinsic unification of the self, and in this age, we are on a more complicated or analogous plane of meditation. The figure (self) stands for what must be dragged or fused into a spiritual space beyond this world (in Buddhism, wholeness or the highest form of consciousness), and this is a different kind of intrinsic unification of the self. In this process, we enter into the world of meditation and an even more complex contemporary world. The flesh in this image is somewhat kaleidoscopic and extravagantly beautiful. It is a mirror image that is endlessly repeated, just like a single “self” being dragged or fused into an eternal “self.”
