“The target of Yoga is ‘svatantra’ which means to discover our own technique. ‘Sva’ means itself and ‘tantra’ means technique. The techniques are in oneself and we must discover them; if not we will depend on others. I am sick and I go to the doctor; but finally I must become my own therapist. This is ‘svatantra’.”
