Source: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason BirchTattvadarśana (तत्त्वदर्शन) refers to “seeing the highest reality”, according to the Haṭhapradīpikā of Svātmārāma: an influential 15th-century Sanskrit manual on Hatha-Yoga dealing with techniques to channel one’s vital energy.—Accordingly, “Giving up sense objects is difficult to achieve; seeing the highest reality (tattvadarśana) is [also] difficult, and [so too] is attaining the natural state [of Samādhi], without the compassion of a true Guru”.
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).
