“Abhyāsa is to study and understand one’s own body from the skin to the soul and from the soul to the skin and vairāgya is to develop restrainment from attachments. It is a way of cultivation of non-attachment towards sensual pleasures, joys, pains, longings and desires. Hence, abhyāsa and vairāgya is called tapas.”

II.28 Yoganganusthanat asuddhiksaye jnanadiptih avivekakhyateh

“Patañjali sums up the effects of yoga in this one sutra. He says that by regular and devoted practice, the impurities of the sadhaka’s body and mind are consumed, the causes of afflictions removed and the crown of wisdom is acquired. This wisdom and achievement keep the sadhaka innocent and free of pride.”
