The Three Internal Limbs | The Yoga Sutras | Book III 1-8


Yet even these are external limbs compared to samadhi without seed.

III.1 Dharana (concentration) comes from fixing the mind,

2 In dhyana (meditation), the mind is fixed on one pointedly fixed on one object.

3 Samadhi (absorption) comes when that same object shines forth alone, the mind devoid of itself.

4 These three together are called samyama.

5 From this comes the light of wisdom.

6 This is applied on the different planes.

7 These three are internal limbs, compared to the previous ones.

8 Yet even these are external limbs compared to samadhi without seed.
