Full description

We do not have to choose between the categories of philosophy and religion; yoga can simply belong to both. Specifically, yoga is found in the first systematised philosophy in South Asia, which was established between circa 2nd-century BCE and 2nd-century CE through formal treatises called śāstras and their concise distillations, sūtras.
