A yogi is a person who is an expert at the art of Yoga. Now the word is commonly used in the English Language as a practitioner of Yoga. The word comes from Sanskrit Yugam (to yoke or join together). As two animals are joked to plow the yogi seeks to join one's earthly presense with his/her universal presense or Akal Purakh just as the earthly Guru guides one out of anamalistic darkness into the light of divine presence, again Akal Purakh.
