In Hinduism
Yoga (school of philosophy)
: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason Birch1) 狈颈岣ゲ踽箾t补 (啶ㄠた啶冟じ啷冟い) refers to the 鈥済oing forth鈥� (of one鈥檚 gaze), according to the Amanaska Yoga treatise dealing with meditation, absorption, yogic powers and liberation.鈥擜ccordingly, as 莫艣vara says to V膩madeva: 鈥淸...] The gaze [which is initially] spread out in all directions very gradually becomes inward. [Then, the yogin] sees himself through himself in the spotless mirror of the highest reality. At first, the gaze goes forth (苍颈岣ゲ踽箾t补) [and] is fixed on anything. Having become steady on that very [thing], it gradually disappears. [...]鈥�.
2) Ni岣ゲ踽箾t膩 (啶ㄠた啶冟じ啷冟い啶�) refers to 鈥渆mission鈥� (of the fluid), according to the Ha峁環aprad墨pik膩 3.96-98.鈥擜ccordingly, 鈥淗aving discarded the first flow of water because of its excessive heat and the last flow because it is worthless, [the Yogin] should use the middle flow [which is] cool. In the Kha峁囜笉ak膩p膩lika sect, this is [called] Amarol墨. If he regularly drinks the [middle flow called] Amar墨; snorts [it] everyday and correctly practices Vajrol墨 Mudr膩 [in order to draw it up his urethra], it is called Amarol墨. He should mix the lunar fluid which is emitted (苍颈岣ゲ踽箾t腻) because of [this] practice, with ashes and [then,] put it on the upper body (i.e., the head, eyes, shoulders, throat, chest, arms and so on). [As a result], divine sight arises鈥�.
