Etymology

The term 'yogin' comes from the Sanskrit word 'yogi', which is derived from the root 'yuj', meaning 'to yoke' or 'to unite'. In ancient Indian traditions, the concept of yoga evolved as a means of achieving harmony between the mind, body, and spirit. The earliest references to yoga can be found in the Vedas and Upanishads, where it described various spiritual practices aimed at transcending the ego and experiencing oneness with the universe. Over time, the term yogin gained prominence, distinguishing individuals who are deeply committed to the practice and philosophy of yoga, often portraying them as wise sages or spiritual leaders. Yogins have played a notable role in the development of various schools of yoga, contributing to its popularity and adaptation in different cultural contexts around the world.
