In Hinduism
Yoga (school of philosophy)
The State (of liberation) is denoted by the Sanskrit term (Mukti) Pada, according to the Amanaska Yoga treatise dealing with meditation, absorption, yogic powers and liberation.—Accordingly, “With palms held together, Vāmadeva bowed his head to the God and asked, ‘tell [us] the means to the state (pada-upāya) of liberation while living?’ [...]’”.
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).
