Source: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason BirchVāsaradvaya (वासरद्वय) (or Ahodvaya) refers to the “time of two days”, according to the Amanaska Yoga treatise dealing with meditation, absorption, yogic powers and liberation.—Accordingly, as Īśvara says to Vāmadeva: “[...] [Now], I shall define the nature of that highest, mind-free absorption which arises for those devoted to constant practice. [...] In two days (ahodvaya) and nights [ahorātradvayenāpi], the Yogin who is completely immersed in the bliss of absorption and free of volition, experiences taste even from afar. [...]”.
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).
