:'''To block the mental modifications is yoga.'''
To control your awareness, or be in a higher consciousness level '''What is yoga?''': According to Swami Vivekananda "Yoga is restraining the mind – stuff (Chitta) from taking various forms (Vrittis)."  Chitta means individual consciousness, which includes three states of mind; the conscious state, the subconscious state and the unconscious state of mind.
Chitta or consciousness has three stages:
#the unconsciousness or mental state of dormant potentiality
And here the 'blocking' means blocking the pattern of awareness, not the awareness itself. This blocking should not be confused with "Suppression".
