Samadhi, dukkha, suffering, nirodha (cessation) are crucial 
terms in Buddhist vocabulary. The doctrine of suffering is 
the core of what Buddhists believe the Buddha taught after 
gaining enlightenment. Patanjali's ashtang eight-limbed 
practice is parallel to the eight-limbed path of Shakya the 
Muni. So, the original topic was Patanjali's Yoga, which is
based on original Buddhism.
