In Hinduism
Yoga (school of philosophy)
Source: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason BirchŚrutasampanna (श्रुतसम्पन्न) refers to “one who is learned in the Vedas”, according to the Yogayājñvalkya 6.12, 16-6.19ab.—Accordingly, while discussing that yoga was practised by all four castes and women: “[...] [If] a Brahmin is learned in the Vedas (śrutasampanna) and always devoted to his religious duties, he should repeat a Vedic mantra and never a non-Vedic one. Some [Brahmins] wish to repeat a non-Vedic mantra for the well-being of [all] people. As [in the case of] a Brahmin, mantra repetition is prescribed for a Kṣatriya in Prāṇāyāma. [...]”.
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).
