25 – Vibhuti Pada Verses 6, 15 – 18 | Examples of Samyama

-“A Yogi, through samyama, he is actually taking his journey back to his original source, that is Mahatattwa, and he identifies himself with the cosmic intelligence, when he is able to do that, he becomes endowed with this extraordinary power of cognition and intuition. This is the view of many of the commentators.”-tasya bhūmiṣu viniyogaḥ (Vibhuti Pada 6)-तस्य भूमिषु विनियोगः -kramānyatvaṁ pariṇāmānyateve hetuḥ (Vibhuti Pada 15)-क्रमान्यत्वं परिणामान्यतेवे हेतुः -pariṇāmatraya-saṁyamāt-atītānāgata jñānam (Vibhuti Pada 16)-परिणामत्रयसंयमाततीतानागत ज्ञानम् -śabdārtha-pratyayāmām-itaretarādhyāsāt-saṁkaraḥ tat-pravibhāga-saṁyamāt sarvabhūta-ruta-jñānam (Vibhuti Pada 17)-शब्दार्थप्रत्ययामामितरेतराध्यासात्संकरः तत्प्रविभागसंयमात् सर्वभूतरुतज्ञानम् -saṁskāra-sākṣātkaraṇāt pūrva-jāti-jñānam (Vibhuti Pada 18)-संस्कारसाक्षात्करणात् पूर्वजातिज्ञानम् -Lecture by Swami Tattwamayananda on May 16, 2021.
