Rajyog


Explanation:
It is my opinion that you should use the word Rajyog (maybe put it in inverted commas or Italics). An explanation is provided in the phrase that follows immediately in your sentence (just remove teh full stop and capital letter of "or"). It difficult to translate its sense completely and by leaving it you can communicate that this is a unique cultural concept.

agree  Piyush Ojha: Yes. The Hindi word is very culture-specific and conveys a complex concept which can not be expressed accurately in an English word or simple phrase.

Attaining spiritual high thru satisfying your wishes.


Explanation:
This is actually a spiritual term, well explained by shri Swami Vivekanand. In Rajyoga, you consume and enjoy all material things to gain happiness, which is actually mirage and tends to slowly diminish your longing for it and move towards higher spirituality.
