The word Yog has two meanings and both are important. First is to add and second is Samadhi which means meditation. We do not reach up to Samadhi until we do not go into it. This means to reach the peak of Samadhi, heart body and soul all the three should be in a healthy position. This path can again become easy if we make yoga an integral part of our life. Yog does not teach you to trust, nor to become untrustworthy.
On the other side it is deadly against trust and un-trust that means ‘confusion’. Yog says that you have the capability to know, only use that.
