In Hinduism
Yoga (school of philosophy)
Source: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason BirchĀtmabodha (आत्मबोध) is the name of a manuscript possibly identified with the Amanaska Yoga treatise dealing with topics as absorption (laya), yogic powers (siddhi) and liberation, presented in the form of a dialogue between Īśvara and Vāmadeva.—Ātmabodha, which is mentioned by the New Catalogus Catalogorum (Raghavan 1968: 316) as another title of the Amanaska, is supported by only one citation from a nineteenth century 'hand-list' of a collection of manuscripts which is no longer found at the location stated in the hand-list. It is unlikely that this was ever the name of the Amanaska.
Ātmabodha, a title which is generally reserved for the Advaitavedāntin work by Śaṅkarācārya. Two manuscripts of a text called the Ātmabodha (attributed to Gorakṣanātha) at the Maharaja Mansingh Pustak Prakash in Jodhpur (see Vyasa 1986: s.v. Ātmabodha, Serial N. 1278 [old catalogue No. 1046,] Accession No. 536.) are not exceptions to this. They are tantric works which do not contain the Amanaska.
Yoga is originally considered a branch of Hindu philosophy (astika), but both ancient and modern Yoga combine the physical, mental and spiritual. Yoga teaches various physical techniques also known as āsanas (postures), used for various purposes (eg., meditation, contemplation, relaxation).
