In Hinduism
Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Trivarṣā (त्रिवर्षा).—The eleventh Veda-Vyāsa.*
- * Brahmāṇḍa-purāṇa II. 35. 119.
The Purana (पुराण, purāṇas) refers to Sanskrit literature preserving ancient India’s vast cultural history, including historical legends, religious ceremonies, various arts and sciences. The eighteen mahapuranas total over 400,000 shlokas (metrical couplets) and date to at least several centuries BCE.
Yoga (school of philosophy)
Trivarṣa (त्रिवर्ष) [=varṣatraya?] refers to the “time period of three years”, according to the Amanaska Yoga treatise dealing with meditation, absorption, yogic powers and liberation.—Accordingly, as Īśvara says to Vāmadeva: “[...] [Now], I shall define the nature of that highest, mind-free absorption which arises for those devoted to constant practice. [...] The Yogin who remains in absorption for three years (saṃvatsaratraya), [gains] the Siddhi of the fire-element. He becomes absorbed in the fire-element. [...]”.
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).
