[QUOTE="findingmyway, post: 139783, member: 12855"] As you say Raj Yoga is about controlling the mind to free yourself from maya. The references in Sri Guru Granth Sahib JiJ could be relating to the concept rather than the actual process. I could only find 2 references in Gurbani, one discussed above. The other is on page 211. ਗਉੜੀ ਮਹਲਾ ੫ ॥ Gauree, Fifth Mehl: ਰਸਨਾ ਜਪੀਐ ਏਕੁ ਨਾਮ ॥ rasanaa japeeai eaek naam || ਈਹਾ ਸੁਖੁ ਆਨੰਦੁ ਘਨਾ ਆਗੈ ਜੀਅ ਕੈ ਸੰਗਿ ਕਾਮ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥ eehaa sukh aanandh ghanaa aagai jeea kai sang kaam ||1|| rehaao || With your tongue, chant the Name of the One Lord. In this world, it shall bring you peace, comfort and great joy. ||1||Pause|| [I]Now we know that Waheguru has many names and the whole of Gurbani is describing Waheguru so Naam is more than one word[/I] ਕਟੀਐ ਤੇਰਾ ਅਹੰ ਰੋਗੁ ॥ katteeai thaeraa ahan rog || The disease of your ego shall be eradicated. ਤੂੰ ਗੁਰ ਪ੍ਰਸਾਦਿ ਕਰਿ ਰਾਜ ਜੋਗੁ ॥੧॥ thoon gur prasaadh kar raaj jog ||1|| By Guru's Grace, you will find peace and connect with Waheguru||1|| ਹਰਿ ਰਸੁ ਜਿਨਿ ਜਨਿ ਚਾਖਿਆ ॥ har ras jin jan chaakhiaa || ਤਾ ਕੀ ਤ੍ਰਿਸਨਾ ਲਾਥੀਆ ॥੨॥ thaa kee thrisanaa laathheeaa ||2|| Those who taste the sublime essence of the Lord have their thirst quenched. ||2|| ਹਰਿ ਬਿਸ੍ਰਾਮ ਨਿਧਿ ਪਾਇਆ ॥ har bisraam nidhh paaeiaa || ਸੋ ਬਹੁਰਿ ਨ ਕਤ ਹੀ ਧਾਇਆ ॥੩॥ so bahur n kath hee dhhaaeiaa ||3|| Those who have found the Lord, the Treasure of peace, shall not go anywhere else again. ||3|| ਹਰਿ ਹਰਿ ਨਾਮੁ ਜਾ ਕਉ ਗੁਰਿ ਦੀਆ ॥ har har naam jaa ko gur dheeaa || ਨਾਨਕ ਤਾ ਕਾ ਭਉ ਗਇਆ ॥੪॥੮॥੧੪੬॥ naanak thaa kaa bho gaeiaa ||4||8||146||Those who have understood Naam from the Guru - O Nanak, their fears are removed. ||4||8||146|| The process of Raj Yoga includes ahimsa (non-violence) and sexual abstinence among other things which are not in line with Gurbani so I think the references to raj yoga refer to the concept rather than the process.
