Source: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason BirchSvapnajāgaraṇa (स्वप्नजागरण) refers to “sleep and wakefulness”, according to the Amanaska Yoga treatise dealing with meditation, absorption, yogic powers and liberation.—Accordingly, as Īśvara says to Vāmadeva: “[...] [The Yogin] who always remains as though asleep in the state of waking and is free from breathing in and out, is certainly liberated. People who belong to the mundane world experience sleep and wakefulness (svapnajāgaraṇa), [whereas] the Yogins who have realized the highest reality do not wake and do not sleep. [...]”.
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).
