Yogi is a term for one who practices yoga.
The word Yoga , from the Sanskrit root yuj "to
yoke", is translated as "union" or "integration",
and may be understood as union with the Divine,
or as "exertion, endeavor, concentration" in the
sense of meditation.
The word "Tar" means "string" in Persian and
also in Hindi.
