21. Yogins with intense ardour achieve concentration and the result

thereof quickly.

 

22. On account of the methods being slow, medium and speedy, even

among those Yogins who have intense ardour, there are differences.

 

23. From special devotion to isvara also (concentration becomes

imminent).

 

24. Isvara is a particular Purusha unaffected by affliction, deed,

result of action or the latent impressions thereof.

 

25. In Him the seed of omniscience has reached its utmost development

which cannot be exceeded.

 

26. (He is) The teacher of former teachers because with Him there is

no limitation by time (to His omnipotence).

 

27. The sacred word designating Him is Pranava or the mystic syllable

OM.

 

28. (Yogins) Repeat it and contemplate upon its meaning.

 

29. From that comes realisation of the individual self and the

obstacles are resolved.

 

30. Sickness, incompetence, doubt, delusion, sloth, non-abstention,

erroneous conception, non-attainment of any Yogic stage, and

instability to stay in a Yogic state-these distractions of the mind

are the impediments.
