In Hinduism
Yoga (school of philosophy)
: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason BirchThat which is 鈥淩igid鈥� is denoted by the Sanskrit term Atistabdha, according to the Mata峁単ap膩rame艣varatantra (Mata峁単ap膩rame艣vara鈥檚 Yogap膩da) verse 2.23-27.鈥擨n later Tantras, various details [such as fixing the eyes on some object] often preceded the verses on the seated postures, thereby indicating that the position of the hands, torso and gaze was ancillary to all of the prescribed postures. In the Mata峁単ap膩rame艣vara, these postural ancillaries [e.g., making sure the neck is not held too rigid] constitute what they call a 办补谤补峁嘺, and when it is combined with a seated pose, the Yogin鈥檚 posture becomes just as complicated as any seated pose described in later medieval yoga texts.
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).
