avighataś ca sāvadyapariharan mahodayaḥ 1/56|| Here there usually arise no obstacles pertaining to the instruments of performance; on its part, this absence of obstacles is conducive to moksa via an avoidance of the blameworthy acts, (d) Dipra--the Fourth Yoga-viewpoint
प्राणायामवती दीप्रा न योगोत्थानवत्यलम् । तत्त्वश्रवणसंयुक्ता सूक्ष्मबोधविवर्जिता ॥५७॥ prānāyāmavali dipra na yogotthānavaty alam tallvastaranasanyukta sūksmabodhavivarjita 1/571/
