Patanjali (“puh-TUN-juh-lee”) wrote a collection of sutras on this practice that established its “eight limbs,” including the yamas (“YUM-uhs”) and the niyamas (“NEE-yum-uhs”). For 10 points each:
[10e] Name this general Indian spiritual practice of controlling the mind and body. Western adaptations of this practice’s “hatha” (“HUH-tuh”) form involve poses that stretch the body.
ANSWER: yoga [accept hatha yoga; accept Ashtānga yoga; accept Yoga Sūtras]
[10h] The fourth of Patanjali’s eight limbs of yoga is named for focusing on this concept. The ritual by which mūrtis (“MOOR-thees”) are consecrated is named for their imbuing with this concept, which is the Sanskrit term for life energy.
ANSWER: prāna [accept prānāyāma; accept prāna pratishtha; prompt on breath]
[10m] This figure identified yoga with the state of meditative consciousness known as samādhi in his bhāshya, or commentary, on the Yoga Sūtras. This figure legendarily narrated a work to Ganesha, who transcribed it with one of his tusks.
ANSWER: Vyāsa (“V’YAH-suh”) [or Veda Vyāsa; or Krishna Dvaipayana] (That work is the Mahābhārata.)
