It does not give any special name to the one God. Emerging from the ground of Hinduism, it goes beyond religion. Yoga is a Religious Science, which means that it goes beyond religion, and assumes a universal characteristic. Secondly, Yoga is a science for Man. It is not a science either for an Easterner or a Westerner, an Oriental or an Occidental.
Yoga is for man on earth.
It was given to mortal man on this earth of birth, pain and death. It was not given to an ancient man or medieval man or a modern man, or anyone who might come, wanting to go beyond all sorrow, pain and suffering, go beyond bondage and delusion. If he takes to this path, it brings him to the place of supreme experience. So it is the answer to the need of mortal man, on this earth plane. It does not interfere with religion.
