Chapter 6: Path of Meditationध्यानयोग

“Wherever the restless and unsteady mind wanders, one must bring it back and fix it on the Self.”
Sanskrit
यतो यतो निश्चरति मनश्चञ्चलमस्थिरम् | ततस्ततो नियम्यैतदात्मन्येव वशं नयेत् ||

yato yato niścarati manaś cañcalam asthiram tatas tato niyamyaitad ātmany eva vaśaṁ nayet
Commentary
This practical instruction addresses the wandering mind. Whenever it strays - and it will - gently bring it back. This is the essence of meditation practice.
