In Hinduism
Yoga (school of philosophy)
Source: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason BirchThe Indivisible (Self) is denoted by the Sanskrit term Niṣkala, according to the Amanaska Yoga treatise dealing with meditation, absorption, yogic powers and liberation.—Accordingly, as Īśvara says to Vāmadeva: “[...] Therefore, having abandoned divisible objects through meditation on the indivisible self (niṣkala-adhyātma-yoga), the breath disappears. After that, the mind [disappears] and because of the disappearance of the [mind], liberation [occurs]. Having reflected thus [on this sequence], O adepts, make an effort to obtain the natural, pure, undivided and unchangeable no-mind [state] right from the start. [...]”.
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).
