Shucks! Just checked it out: 'yaw' doesN'T apparently (at least per 
translate.google.com) exactly rhyme with, say, 'law', which would better rhyme 
with 'yo' in yoga!

Getting there is a process. But you can call it cream cheese if you 
like. :-)

Yoga IS the process of gaining control over autonomic nervous system.  
Left to it's own devices the autonomic nervous system can go out of 
whack causing disease.  By yoga I don't mean the asanas.  That's a dumb 
western misapplication of the term.  Yoga actually means "meditation."


TM is sorta the Comcast of meditation.
