The practice of yog, in all its aspects, including action without attachment to the result, devotion to God, acquisition of knowledge and control over the self leads to freedom from the bondage of vices and liberation from sorrow.

So ‘Germanic’ is as good a description of ‘ethnic’ as ‘Hispanic’ or ‘Indian’ and ‘Western’ or ‘Nordic’.
