The term “raja” means “royal.” The royal, 8-Fold path taught by Patanjali in the Yoga Sutras is a reference not only to meditation but to the subtle, astral spine: “highway to the infinite.” But this 8-fold practice is not a rejection of our daily life: it embraces all life from our hidden center within.
