In Hinduism

Yoga (school of philosophy)

Pādāta (पादात) refers to “foot-soldiers”, according to the Amanaska Yoga treatise dealing with meditation, absorption, yogic powers and liberation.—Accordingly, as Īśvara says to Vāmadeva: “[...] [The Yogin], whose foot-soldiers (pādāta) are his quietened senses and who is endowed with [a successful king’s] powers [in the form of] his higher faculty of discernment, becomes joyful when he has conquered the hostile mind-king who is accompanied by his [royal] vehicle, the breath. [...]”.
