In Hinduism
Yoga (school of philosophy)
Source: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason BirchVedāntopaniṣad (वेदान्तोपनिषद्) refers to the “culmination of the Vedas” (i.e., the Upaniṣads), according to the Amanaska Yoga treatise dealing with meditation, absorption, yogic powers and liberation.—Accordingly, as Īśvara says to Vāmadeva: “[...] Learned scholars who possess intellect do talk about the highest Brahma, [but] those who are skilled in communicating [even] a small part of self-realization are hard to find in this world. Knowers of the Upaniṣads, which are the culmination of the Vedas (vedāntopaniṣad), talk [openly] about the no-mind state and others teach it in secret. These [people] do not experience it themselves. [...]”.
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).

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). 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.
