~~You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet~~

There are only two ways to reach to the ultimate truth: either you become the body -- that is the way of Tantra -- or you become separate from the body, utterly separate -- that is the way of Yoga. The whole effort of Yoga is that you become just a witness, a transcendental witness of everything, unidentified with everything that happens to you, around you. Your body, your mind, your heart, everything is separate from you. On the Yoga path you have to continuously remember neti-neti: neither this nor that; 'I am neither this nor that, I am just a witness.' If the witnessing becomes absolute, the ultimate is attained. This is one of the main ways to god.

The other main way is: become more and more lost in the body, so much so that there is not even a slight difference left. You are totally one with the body, not identified, but one, not having an idea of unity, but being one, existentially one. Then too the ultimate happens. The first is the way of awareness, the second is the way of love. Osho

So in order to find the truth you must become one with the body or separate or lost in it confused

I think you have it wrong. Love and awareness go together. You can't be only love without awareness or awareness without love. It is important in yoga to stay grounded else you can loose the plot completely. dunno
@ekself Yoga is the path of a conqueror...for one, owner of great will power, one who can't be deterred by anything whatsoever. And so question of love and emotions or passion for that matter is altogether sidelined.
It relates to discipline and believes in the discipline only. It lets nothing to come in between. There are certain set of orders....YAM..NIYAM..and..PRANAYAAM.....The set code of rules..relating...food intake....the life style and everything....A perfect discipline to DOS AND DONTS...
THE WAY OF CONTROLLING MIND BY FORCE.
