: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason BirchScriptural Exegesis is denoted by the Sanskrit term Siddh膩nta, 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...] Not by studying the doctrines of scriptural exegesis (尘墨尘腻峁僺腻), logic, planets and mathematics, nor by the Vedas, Upani峁ds, Dharma艣膩stras [and the like]; not even by lexicons nor metre, grammar, poetry nor rhetoric; the sage's attainment of the highest reality is gained only from the oral teachings of his own Guru. [...]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).
