Even in the dissolutions of Brahmā, Viṣṇu and Śiva, the yogins enjoy supreme bliss, like the great-souled Bhuśuṇḍa and others. [...]”.
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).
