Since 艢aiva observance is worship of 艢iva, 艢iva's yoga is five-fold. He who is without the practice [of worshipping] 艢iva is certainly a bound soul, and he goes round and round forever (ajasra) in this cycle of birth and death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).

Embodied souls, living in immovable and movable bodies, are born [and] die constrained by the chains of their own actions鈥�.
