In Hinduism
Yoga (school of philosophy)
: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason Birch痴峁泃迟颈苍颈谤辞诲丑补 (啶掂啶む啶むた啶ㄠた啶班啶�) refers to the 鈥渃essation of the activity (of one鈥檚 mind)鈥�, 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...] [Now], I shall define the nature of that highest, mind-free absorption which arises for those devoted to constant practice. [...] By means of an absorption for a day and night, the Yogin who is steady in his seated posture knows smells from afar, because of the cessation of the activity of his mind (肠颈迟迟补-惫峁泃迟颈苍颈谤辞诲丑补). [...]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).
Vaishnavism (Vaishava dharma)
: Vallabh: Nirodha-lakshana痴峁泃迟颈苍颈谤辞诲丑补 (啶掂啶む啶むた啶ㄠた啶班啶�) refers to 鈥渞estraining (mental) modifications鈥�, according to the Nirodhalak峁峁嘺 (lit. 鈥渃haracteristics of restraint鈥�) written by 艢r墨 Vallabh膩c膩rya for his disciples.鈥� Nirodha refers to 鈥渇orgetting the material world entirely (and becoming exclusively attached to the Lord/Bhagav膩n)鈥�. The concept of nirodha in the Pu峁ａ弓im膩rga tradition transcends the yogic definition of 肠颈迟迟补-惫峁泃迟颈苍颈谤辞诲丑补 (restraining mental modifications). Instead, it represents the total surrender of body (deha), senses (indriya), life-force (辫谤腻峁嘺), mind (manas), intellect (buddhi), ego (补丑补峁卥腻谤补), and all possessions toward 艢r墨 K峁涐梗峁嘺鈥檚 service. It is characterized by profound experiences of union (蝉补峁儁辞驳补) and separation (viyoga/viprayoga).
Vaishnava (啶掂啶粪啶｀さ, vai峁ａ箛ava) or vaishnavism (vai峁ａ箛avism) represents a tradition of Hinduism worshipping Vishnu as the supreme Lord. Similar to the Shaktism and Shaivism traditions, Vaishnavism also developed as an individual movement, famous for its exposition of the dashavatara (鈥榯en avatars of Vishnu鈥�).

Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
