The reason is that everything and everybody is in the mind of the cosmic consciousness according to yoga.
Can you actually prove this?

A drop of water is separate from a billion of other drops but as soon as she get in the ocean then the separation end and you are the ocean and everything that exist.
Which sounds just like Jill Bolte Taylor's experience when she had a stroke which switched off her left brain perception.

Jungian psychology is Transpersonal Psychology
Quote:Transpersonal psychology is a school of psychology that integrates the spiritual and transcendent aspects of the human experience with the framework of modern psychology. It is also possible to define it as a "spiritual psychology". The transpersonal is defined as "experiences in which the sense of identity or self extends beyond (trans) the individual or personal to encompass wider aspects of humankind, life, psyche or cosmos".[1] It has also been defined as "development beyond conventional, personal or individual levels".[2]
Issues considered in transpersonal psychology include spiritual self-development, self beyond the ego, peak experiences, mystical experiences, systemic trance, spiritual crises, spiritual evolution, religious conversion, altered states of consciousness, spiritual practices, and other sublime and/or unusually expanded experiences of living.The discipline attempts to describe and integrate spiritual experience within modern psychological theory and to formulate new theory to encompass such experience.
It's another way of reaching the God experience but people aren't obliged to believe in things like reincarnation etc. Neuroscience has shown that meditating Buddhist monks and praying Franciscan nuns have the same brain activity when using their own methods of getting there. This indicates that there's more ways of getting there than doing yoga.
