Commentary (टीका)
This verse from the spiritual texts emphasizes the power of self-realization. By remaining steadily centered within one’s true self, the yogi transcends the limitations of the mind. The dissolution of the mind comes naturally as desires and past impressions are weakened and eventually destroyed. The verse urges the practitioner to consciously remove self-imposed misconceptions, which are obstacles on the path of spiritual growth. This requires an ongoing effort towards recognizing the reality of the self beyond transient mental constructs, known as svādhyāsa. In the path of yoga, such practices lead towards inner freedom and realization of one's true nature.
