[«𱹾dzܲ Ա»] � Anutva in Yoga glossary
: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason Birch

ٱ (अणुत्व) refers to the “state of being extremely small�, according to the Amanaska Yoga treatise dealing with meditation, absorption, yogic powers and liberation.—Accordingly, as Īśvara says to Vāmadeva: “[...] [Now], I shall define the nature of that highest, mind-free absorption which arises for those devoted to constant practice. [...] If [the Yogin] who abides in absorption remains [in it] up to the end of fourteen days, he [gains] the Siddhi called Aṇimā, by which the state of being extremely small (ٱ) is obtained. [...]�.
