In Hinduism
Yoga (school of philosophy)
Unwavering (existence) (in the Self) is denoted in the Sanskrit language as Nirupaplavā, according to the sixth chapter of Rājānaka Ratnākara’s Haravijaya (9th-century), which represents a hymn (stotra) to Śiva.—Accordingly, “Those [Yogins,] whose intense ascetic observance [is performed] for the attainment of union without mind, obtain according to tradition the spotless state which gives an unwavering (nirupaplavā) existence in the Self. [The fact that Yogins obtain this spotless state,] O Śiva, is none other than [the expression of your] favour”.
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).
