Seated comfortably (sukha-sanniviṣṭa) in a solitary place on an even seat, having been supported a little from behind, the gaze [held] steady at an arm’s length, the limbs relaxed and free from worry, do the practice. [...]”.
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).

Jainism is an Indian religion of Dharma whose doctrine revolves around harmlessness (ahimsa) towards every living being.
