I would like to contribute that this question can be answered from the
standpoint of differentiating between the kinds of sources of "truth".
I view religion as the following of other people's ideas about
cosmogeny--priests, rabbis, ministers, imams, etc, i.e., taking their
words and believing them wholesale.
There is also the path of mysticism--both Eastern and Western-- which
involves taking the teachings and then going within yourself to "prove"
the truths within your own being. Yoga falls into this category. We use
our own bodies and minds as crucibles to find our own answers each person
for herself or himself.
