Yoga or yoga (in Sanskrit and Pali: योग, IAST: yoga, IPA: [joːgə]) is a concept that refers to traditional physical disciplines originating in India. The word is associated with meditative practices and is typically associated with hata-yoga and its āsanas (postures) or as a form of exercise. [

The main branches of yoga include raja-yoga, karma-yoga, jnana-yoga, bacteri-yoga, tantra yoga, tao yoga and hata-yoga. Raja-yoga, compiled in Patañjali's Sūtra Yoga and known simply as yoga in the context of Hindu philosophy, is part of the Samkhya tradition. Several other Hindu texts discuss aspects of yoga, including the Vedas, Upanishads, Bagavadguitá, Haṭhayoga Pradīpikā, Gheraṇḍa Saṁhitā, Śiva Saṁhitā, Mahabhārata and several Tantras.
