: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason Birch

±Ê²¹Å›³Ü»åṛṣṭi (पशà¥à¤¦à¥ƒà¤·à¥à¤Ÿà¤�) refers to the “sight of the uninitiatedâ€�, according to the MatsyendrasaṃhitÄ.—The Amanaska’s description of the ideal place in which to practise Yoga is based on four standard characteristics; it should be isolated, solitary, clean and beautiful. Similar descriptions are found in Tantric traditions. [...] In the MatsyendrasaṃhitÄ (10.2a-b), the location of the Yogin’s initiation ceremony is isolated, free of people and beyond the sight of the uninitiated (±è²¹Å›³Ü»åṛṣṭi).
