Patanjali Yoga Sutras - A Musical Rendition
This chant, an excerpt from Patanjali’s yoga sutras is composed and sung by Sounds of Isha. Lyrics Meaning: Yoga is to still the patterning of consciousness Then, pure awareness can abide in its very nature Otherwise, awareness takes itself to be the patterns of consciousness There are five types of patterns, including both hurtful and benign They are right perception, misperception, conceptualization, deep sleep, and remembering Right perception arises from direct observation, inference, or the words of others Misperception is false knowledge, not based on what actually is Conceptualization derives from linguistic knowledge, not contact with real things Deep sleep is a pattern grounded in the perception that nothing exists Remembering is the retention of experiences Both practice and non-reaction are required to still the patterning of consciousness
