THIS IS THE RESULT OF RESTRAIN.                      SUTRA 10                      TASYA PRASANTA VAHITA SAMSKARAT                  THE MIND THEN DISCOVERS THE QUALITY OF THE MIND WHEN THERE IS A CALM FLOW.                   

                                                  THE TRADITIONAL THIRD EYE                                          VIBHUTI PADA                        TRADITIONALLY, THE THIRD PADA IS USED THE SO-CALLED SUPER-NORMAL POWERS, BUT INTERESTINGLY NOWHERE IN THE BODY OF THE CHAPTER IS THE WORD VIBHUTI USED.                         THESE SUPERNATURAL POWERS ARE ATTAINED BY THE ACCOMPLISHED YOGI BY ATTENTION, MEDITATION AND SAMADHI ON THE OBJECT OR OBJECTIVE.                     BESIDES DISCUSSION ON THE SUPERNATURAL, THIS CHAPTER CONTAINS SIGNIFICANT INFORMATION.                     ETYMOLOGICALLY, THE WORD VIBHUTI FROM THE PRE-FIX VI, THE VERB BHU, AND THE SUFFIX TI COULD ALSO MEAN "THAT WHICH EXPANSIVE". IT COULD, THEREFORE, ALSO MEAN THE EXPANSIVE CONSCIOUSNESS.                       NOW IN THIS CONTEXT, SUTRA 50 IS SIGNIFICANT - AND IT FROM DISPASSION TOWARDS EVEN THESE POWERS, IN THE VERY DESTRUCTION OF THE SEED OF DESIRE FOR POWERS, THAT KAIVALYAM OR A STATE OF ULTIMATE ENLI

                                            THE PRACTICAL SECTIONS OF                                          YOGA SUTRAS                        THIS IS THE PRACTICAL SECTION OF THE YOGA SUTRAS. IT DEALS WITH THE CLASSICAL ASHTANGA OR EIGHT-LIMBED YOGA, A STEP-BY-STEP PRACTICE MANUAL. HOWEVER, THE PREVIOUS CHAPTER ON THE SAMADHI PADA, THOUGH BY AND LARGE PHILOSOPHICAL, PSYCHOLOGICAL AND METAPHYSICAL, IS BY NO MEANS STRICTLY THEORETICAL.                    A CLOSE STUDY WOULD SHOW THAT THE SAMADHI PADA ALSO DEALS WITH PRACTICAL EXERCISES LIKE THE "REPETITION OF AUM" AND THE QUALISING OF THE 'INHALATION AND EXHALATION' AMONG OTHER PRACTICAL TIPS. NEVERTHELESS, IT DOES LAY GREATER EMPHASIS ON THE PSYCHOLOGICAL AND METAPHYSICAL UNDERSTANDING OF YOGA, WITHOUT GRASPING THESE IMPORTANT ASPECTS, THE PRACTICAL STEPS WOULD BE MEANINGLESS, BECAUSE THEORY IS MERELY A STEPPING STONE TO PRACTICE.                      SWAMI VIVEKANANDA'S COMMENTARY ON THE YOGA SUTRAS, CALLED R
