Of others, some sacrifice by way of giving away their wealth to the deserving; some by austerity; some by Yoga, comprising such parctices as Prânâyâma (restraint of vital airs) and Pratyâhâra (withdrawal of the mind from external objects); some by way of repeating Vedic texts such as the Ṛg-Veda according to prescribed rules; some by way of studying the contents of the Scriptures (sâstra).
