And it is the state [achieved through] the essence of Åšiva. His essence [is described] in the Goraká¹£opaniá¹£at, ‘the deity of constant bliss (²õ²¹»åÄå²Ô²¹²Ô»å²¹-devatÄ) is above the non-dual stateâ€�. [...] In the Amanaska, [it is said]: ‘That is declared as the highest Brahma which is free from existence and non-existence, without cessation and arising and beyond all imaginings [of the mind]â€�.â€�.

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 Äsanas (postures), used for various purposes (eg., meditation, contemplation, relaxation).
