In Hinduism
Yoga (school of philosophy)
Source: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason BirchThe Individual Self can be denoted by the Sanskrit term Jīvātman, according to the Kulārṇavatantra (verse 9.15, 17).—Accordingly: “Just as water poured into water, milk into milk and ghee into ghee, so there is no distinction between the individual self (jīvātman) and the supreme self”.
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).
