पातञ्जल योगसूत्र (स्वामी विवेकानन्द भाष्य एवं सूत्र व्याख्या)

Patanjali Yoga Sutras
and the Akasa comes divine hearing.
There is the Akasa, the ether, and the instrument, the ear. By
making Samyama on them the Yogi gets divine hearing; he
hears everything. Anything spoken or sounded miles away he
can here.
43. कायाकाशयोः संबन्धसंयमाल् लघुतूलसमापत्तेश्चाकाशगमनम् ॥४३॥
kayakashayoh sanbandhasanyamal
aghutoolasamapatteshchakashagamanam
By making Samyama on the relation between the
Akasa and the body the Yogi becoming light as cotton
wool goes through the skies.
This Akasa is the material of this body; it is only Akasa in a
certain form that has become the body. If the Yogi makes
Samyama on this Akasa material of his body, it acquires the
lightness of Akasa, and can go anywhere through the air.
44. बहिरकल्पिता वृत्तिर्महाविदेहा . ततः प्रकाशावरणक्षयः ॥४४॥
bahirakalpita vrittirmahavideha tatah
prakashavarannakshayah
By making Samyama on the real modifications of the
mind, which are outside, called great disembodiness,
comes disappearance of the covering to light.
The mind in its foolishness thinks that it is working in this
body. Why should I be bound by one system of nerves, and
put the Ego only in one body, if the mind is omnipresent?
