Ancient Indian sages have explored two main paths to Reality or the
essential nature of
Self -
Vivekaja marg (the path of distinction/discrimination) and Yogaja marg (the path of
union/integration). Patanjali Raja yoga and Shankar’s Vedanta follow the Vivekaja
marg
by which the
Purusha or Atma (the Self) is isolated from Prakriti (in Patanjal yoga) or from Maya
(in
the case of
Vedanta).
The word Yoga does not mean union in Patanjali’s system. It means Viyog
meaning
separation (of Purusha and Prakriti or the Self and nature/matter.) It means samadhi
or
intense abstract meditation.
Shaivaagam (scriptures of Shiva followers) on the other hand has adopted the
Yogaja marg
in which goal is not isolation of Purusha from Prakriti or Maya but the integration
of
the individual Self with the Universal Self or Bhairava and realization of the
universe
as the expression of His Shakti or spiritual Energy. The ideal of Shaivaagam is not
therejection of the universe but its assimilation to its Source
