Source: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason Birch(Being) Comforably (seated) is denoted by the Sanskrit term Sukha-Sanniviṣṭa, according to the Amanaska Yoga treatise dealing with meditation, absorption, yogic powers and liberation.—Accordingly, as Īśvara says to Vāmadeva: “[...] [Now], I will teach the practice of that, which produces absorption. Seated comfortably (sukha-sanniviṣṭa) in a solitary place on an even seat, having been supported a little from behind, the gaze [held] steady at an arm’s length, the limbs relaxed and free from worry, do the practice. [...]”.

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).
