ततस्तथा तु साध्वेव तदवस्थान्तरं परम् । तदेव तात्त्विकी मुक्तिः स्यात् तदन्यवियोगतः ॥४९३॥ tatas tathā tu sādhv eva tadavasthāntaraṁ param/ .
tad eva tāltvikī muktiḥ syāt tadanyaviyogataḥ 1/493|| . As a result of practising yoga a soul thus (i. e. making gradual progress) comes to assume the most desirable type of state to be called mokşa and to be conceived as a genuine attaipment realizable through the separation (from a soul) of the concerned foreign element (i. e. of karma). This position of ours is indeed well maintained.
अत एव च निर्दिष्टं नामास्यास्तत्त्ववेदिभिः । वियोगोऽविद्यया बुद्धिः कृत्स्नकर्मक्षयस्तथा ॥४९॥ ata eva ca nirdişğam nāmāsyās tattvavedibhiḥ |

Note.
Note : The commentator tells us that the epithet 'freedom froin nescience' is current among the Vedāntins, 'wisdom' among the Buddhists 'elimination of all karma' among the Jainas.
शैलेशीसंज्ञिताच्चेह समाधेरुपजायते । कृत्स्नकर्मक्षयः सोऽयं गीयते. वृत्तिसंक्षयः ॥४९५॥ sailesisanjñitāc' ceha samādher upajāyate /
krisnakarmakşayaḥ so'yam giyate výttisamkşayaḥ 1/495// The elimination of all karma results from the meditative trance technically called sailest; it is this trance that is described as vrttisamkşaya (i. c. as the highest type of yoga). : .: Note : As explained earlier, śaileśī is that meditative trance which one performs at the time of attaining the fourteenth gunasthāna and which involves the cessation of all mental, bodily and vocal operations.
तथा तथा क्रियाविष्टः समाधिरभिधीयते । निष्ठाप्राप्तस्तु योगज्ञैर्मुक्तिरेप उदाहृतः ॥४९६॥ tatha lathā krijāviştah samadhir abhidhityale /
