Yoga (school of philosophy)
Source: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason BirchThe Ladle (used for eating food) is denoted by the Sanskrit term Darvī, according to the Amanaska Yoga treatise dealing with meditation, absorption, yogic powers and liberation.—Accordingly, as Īśvara says to Vāmadeva: “[...] Those said to be learned in comprehending the teachings of [the fourteen branches of Brahmanical] learning, [but] do not know the highest reality of the self, are just like the ladle (darvī) [which does not know] the taste of cooked food. [...]”.
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).
