Rishabha First, I want to applaud you for sharing this. I have been part of inSelf Yoga for 13 years now and this is the first time that I have witness a member show such bravery to honesty share their feelings about questioning their aims for liberation from this material existence. Bravo!
On this forum, we all know that inSelf's philosophy and overall goal is to liberate the core self from the adjuncts therefore unveiling Nature's façade. Nevertheless, just because liberation is the ultimate goal that doesn't mean it's for everyone.
You wrote: "In my case, I pursued yoga after encountering financial and material challenges. Yoga was seen as a tool to help alleviate those challenges."
I would argue that you sought out the correct tool to help you improve your situation. inSelf addresses all the necessary components to help you improve your "standing" in material existence to work toward attaining higher future births so you and your ancestors can encounter more "tolerable" hostilities within Nature's system.
So although, you may not want to seek liberation in this particular life, you can most definitely improve your status in future lives, helping you to get your psychic house in order.
Jai Shri Krishna!
