In Hindi we say yog but while transliterating from english, it is being written as yoga. The original word in sanskrit written as yog or yoga with an 'a' at the end of the word. it seems down south (in India) it is pronounced as yoga while in the north as yog. There is no terminology called as “Yoga” in the Sanskrit. The word Yog is derived from the word 'Yuj' and 5000 years old Indian body of knowledge, whose literal meaning is Samadhi. read less

"Yog" is the Hindi/Sanskrit transliteration (योग), while "Yoga" is the anglicized term. No spiritual difference—just linguistic adaptation!

"Yog and yoga are often used interchangeably, but 'yog' is a Sanskrit word referring to the union of body, mind, and spirit, while 'yoga' refers to the physical, mental, and spiritual practices that aim to achieve this union. 'Yog' is the goal, 'yoga' is the path." Thank you🙏🕉 Namaskar

The terms Yog and Yoga essentially refer to the same concept. Yog is the original Sanskrit word, while Yoga is its anglicized form. The essence remains unchanged—both signify union, balance, and self-realization.
