Erläuterung

This verse begins a long sentence that runs through the next several verses, describing the state that is to be called yoga. When the mind, held still by sustained practice, comes to rest, and when the meditator, seeing the self by the self, is content in the self, a new kind of fulfilment appears. The repetition of ātman again emphasizes that nothing outside is needed. Traditions explain this seeing of the self in different ways, but they agree that it is a direct, inward recognition rather than an idea.
