Yoga (school of philosophy)
Source: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason BirchThe Genitals are denoted by the Sanskrit term Śiśna, according to sources such as the Amanaskayoga 1.6, the Dattātreyayogaśāstra 47, the Brahmānanda's Jyotsnā 1.11 and the Yogataraṅgiṇī (epilogue).—Accordingly, “According to tradition, [mere] robe-wearers who do not perform religious duties deceive people by speaking of yoga for the sake of [satisfying their] genitals (śiśna) and stomach”.
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).
