Yoga (school of philosophy)
: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason Birch顿惫颈办补濒腻 (啶︵啶掂た啶曕げ啶�) [=办补濒腻诲惫补测补?] refers to the 鈥渢ime of two Kal膩s鈥� (corresponding to seven-hundred and twenty 艢v膩sas鈥攂reaths), 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 two Kal膩s (办补濒腻诲惫补测补), with the moving about of Ku峁囜笉alin墨, there arises in a flash a single trembling of [the Yogin's] mind. By means of an absorption of four Kal膩s, his sleep ceases. In his heart, the Yogin observes a point of fiery light like a spark. [...]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).
