Description
Lecture by Swami Tattwamayananda. The order of the chapters is explained again. The accomplishments of the three great Yoga sages – Patanjali, Vyasa, Shankaracharya - are reviewed. Vyasa’s description of the mind as a magnet for attracting things is explained. The mind also gets attracted to those things that happen to be around. This magnetic power gives rise to experiences and further vrittis. This accumulation is what prevents us from following through on our sincere desire to lead a good noble spiritual life. Once we are of it, we can link ourselves to our higher dimension. Yoga epistemology is described at the end. Verses: I.2, I.5, I.6, I.7
