Yoga (school of philosophy)

[«𱹾dzܲ Ա»] � Vaihayasa in Yoga glossary
: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason Birch

ղⲹ (वैहायस) refers to a “flying (machine)�.—[...] Yognāth Swāmī (1967: 23) explains that Arjuna looks down into a pot of water (Ჹṇḍ) called a Dharāyantra, and the target (ṣy), which is pierced by the arrow, is a wooden fish (matsyavedha). Though 󲹰ⲹԳٰ is found in some of the Amanaska’s Nepalese manuscripts, it is unlikely to have any connection to a pot of water because the yantra in Draupadī’s Svayaṃvara is the flying machine (vaihāyasa� yantram) upon which the target is mounted.
