Yoga (school of philosophy)

Source: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason Birch

Putting (salt into water) can be denoted by the Sanskrit term Prakṣipta, according to the Amanaska Yoga treatise dealing with meditation, absorption, yogic powers and liberation.—Accordingly, as Īśvara says to Vāmadeva: “[...] [Now], I shall define the nature of that highest, mind-free absorption which arises for those devoted to constant practice. [...] As salt put into (prakṣipta) water dissolves gradually, so the mind as well dissolves [thus] in Brahma by means of the practice [of absorption]. As salt by contact with water becomes water, so the mind by contact with Brahma becomes Brahma. [...]”.
