In Hinduism
Yoga (school of philosophy)
Source: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason BirchSundaradeva (सुन्दरदेव) is the author of the Haṭhatattvakaumudī: a large compendium on Yoga in roughly 2000 Sanskrit verses quoting from Yoga texts, Upaniṣads, Epics, Purāṇas, Dharmaśāstras etc.—The final colophon reveals that the author was a Brahmin by the name of Sundaradeva, the son of a Govindadeva and grandson of a Viśvanāthadeva, and that they belonged to the Kāśyapa Gotra and resided in Vārāṇasi, though they were originally from the Deccan. [...] If the Haṭharatnāvalī was composed after Śivānanda’s Yogacintāmaṇi and if the date of VS 1846 is the correct terminus ad quem of the Haṭhatattvakaumudī, then Sundaradeva’s period of literary activity can be narrowed down to sometime between the mid seventeenth to the mid eighteenth century.
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).

[Sanskrit to German]
Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
