Yoga (school of philosophy)
Source: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason BirchSarvamūrti (सर्वमूर्ति) refers to “all material forms”, according to the South-Indian recension of the Amanaska Yoga treatise dealing with meditation, absorption, yogic powers and liberation.—Accordingly, as Īśvara says to Vāmadeva: “[...] Tāraka [yoga] has a form consisting of all material forms (sarvamūrti-maya) and is limited to the senses. Practiced in two ways, it is dependent on the mind [and] causes one to cross over everything [to liberation]. Having fixed the eyes on a light, [the yogin] should raise the eyebrows a little. This method of the preliminary yoga causes the no-mind state [to arise] spontaneously. [...]”.
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 āsanas (postures), used for various purposes (eg., meditation, contemplation, relaxation).

Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
