In Hinduism
Yoga (school of philosophy)
: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason BirchAdhigama (啶呧ぇ啶苦啶�) refers to 鈥渁cquiring (spiritual knowledge)鈥�, 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 (adhigama) 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 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).
In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
: Encyclopedia of Jainism: Tattvartha SutraAdhigama (啶呧ぇ啶苦啶�, 鈥渒nowledge鈥�).鈥擶hat is right faith (蝉补尘测补驳诲补谤艣补苍补) acquired by knowledge (adhigama)? The right faith that develops due to the teachings by a holy teacher or of holy texts. What is the difference between nisarga and adhigama? Nisarga is self-originated, while the origin of adhigama is dependent on some direct cause (nimitta).
Jainism is an Indian religion of Dharma whose doctrine revolves around harmlessness (ahimsa) towards every living being. The two major branches (Digambara and Svetambara) of Jainism stimulate self-control (or, shramana, 鈥榮elf-reliance鈥�) and spiritual development through a path of peace for the soul to progess to the ultimate goal.
