II.20 The seer is the pure power of sight, only witnessing the images in the mind.

21 The only purpose is for the seer the essential nature of that which is seen.

22 Once this is accomplished, that which is seen no longer exists to that individual, though it does not cease to exist because it is still common to others, who have not achieved liberation.

23 The conjunction leads to understanding the nature of the powers of the possessed and the possessor.

24 Ignorance is the cause of the conjunction.

25 With the removal of ignorance somes the removal of the conjunction. This is absolute freedom of the seer.

26 The path to total liberation is uninterrupted discriminative discernment.

27 The yogi's wisdom has seven stages

28 From the practice of the limbs of yoga, upon the destruction of impurities, this lights the lamp of knowledge, leading to discrimination.
