Source: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason BirchNiyamānupraveśa (नियमानुप्रवेश) refers to “constantly adhering to the rules (of Yogic practice)”, according to the Tantrāloka 4.257cd-258ab.—Accordingly, while discussing the lower and higher teachings of Śaivism: “[The lower Tantras prescribe the wearing of] matted locks, [ashes], and the like, so that by constantly adhering to these rules (niyamānupraveśa) one may realize one's identity [with Śiva]. [But] the Kaula system forbids these [practices]; for it teaches a method that abjures all austerities”.
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).
