Source: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason Birch1) (That which is) Undivided is denoted by the Sanskrit term Avicchinna, and is used to describe the “highest reality” (paratattva) [paraṃ tattvaṃ], according to the Amanaska Yoga treatise dealing with meditation, absorption, yogic powers and liberation.—Accordingly, as Īśvara says to Vāmadeva: “[...] Now, I will teach knowledge for the liberation of those people who have conquered their passion. [...] [The highest reality] is formless, undivided (avicchinna), ungraspable, unmoving, unchangeable, free from all limiting adjuncts [such as time, place and so on] and devoid of any [object of] desire. [...]”.
2) (The) Undivided (Self) can be denoted by the Sanskrit terms Nirbheda or Abhinna, according to the Amanaska Yoga.—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. [...] By means of an absorption for nine nights, [the Yogin] who abides in his own undivided (nirbheda) self has the Siddhi of speech, which can effect a favour or curse. [...]”.
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).
