Source: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason BirchTryakṣya (त्र्यक्ष्य) [=Akṣyatraya?] refers to the “three gazing points”, according to Upaniṣadbrahmayogin’s commentary on the Maṇḍalabrāhmaṇopaniṣat.—Accordingly, “Here then is this Maṇḍalabrāhmaṇopaniṣat, which is part of the white Yajurveda. It reveals the whole of the illustrious Rājayoga [consisting of] the three gazing points (akṣyatraya), five voids, two Tārakas and so on, after elucidating the Yoga with eight subtle auxiliaries”.
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).
