In Hinduism
Yoga (school of philosophy)
Source: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason BirchParicita (परिचित) refers to “having accumulated (one’s vitality)”, according to the Haṭhapradīpikā (verse 4.19-20a-b).—Accordingly, [while describing the attainment of Samādhi]: “Having awakened (bodhayitvā) Kuṇḍalinī, the vitality which has been carefully accumulated (paricita) along with internal heat enters Suṣumnā unobstructed. When vitality is flowing in Suṣumṇā, the no-mind state is accomplished”.
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).
