Yoga (school of philosophy)
: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason BirchDharmayukta (啶оぐ啷嵿ぎ啶啶曕啶�) refers to 鈥渢hose who perform their religious duties鈥�, according to the Yogay膩j帽valkya 6.12, 16-6.19ab.鈥擜ccordingly, while discussing that yoga was practised by all four castes and women: 鈥淸...] [For [all those] Vai艣yas, women, 艢奴dras and ascetics who perform their religious duties (dharmayukta), a mantra without 辞峁� [is prescribed] in Pr膩峁嚹亂膩ma, O G膩rgi. [For in their case,] the wise recommend either a 艢aiva or Vai峁ａ箛ava mantra ending in 苍补尘补岣�. Otherwise, a 艢奴dra as well as a woman should practise with a non-Vedic [mantra] prescribed earlier, and they should repeat [it] forty times in Pr膩峁嚹亂膩ma. 艢奴dras should not repeat a Vedic mantra and women should never [do so]鈥�.
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 膩sanas (postures), used for various purposes (eg., meditation, contemplation, relaxation).

Sanskrit, also spelled 啶膏啶膏啶曕啶むぎ啷� (蝉补峁僺办峁泃补尘), 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.
