In Hinduism
Yoga (school of philosophy)
: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason BirchIndriyavarga (इन्द्रियवर्ग) refers to “all the sense faculties�, according to the Amanaska Yoga treatise dealing with meditation, absorption, yogic powers and liberation.—Accordingly, as Īśvara says to Vāmadeva: “[...] Mind and breath always combine like water and milk, and [their] activity is similar. Therefore, as long as there is mind, there is activity of breath, and as long as there is breath, there is activity of mind. In that case, when one disappears, the other disappears and when one is active, the other is active. And when both are unimpaired, there is awareness of all the sense faculties (indriyavarga). When both have perished, there is the attainment of the state of liberation�.

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).
