: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason BirchConquering (the mind) is denoted by the Sanskrit term Jaya, according to the Ha峁環aprad墨pik膩 of Sv膩tm膩r膩ma: an influential 15th-century Sanskrit manual on Hatha-Yoga dealing with techniques to channel one鈥檚 vital energy.鈥擜ccordingly, while discussing methods for conquering the mind: 鈥淎cquiring spiritual knowledge, associating with the wise, abandoning habitual tendencies and stopping the movement of the breath; according to tradition, [all] these methods are effective in conquering (jaya) the mind. The [mind] is quickly overcome by these [methods of restraint] like the dust of the earth by streams [of water]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).
