艾揚格箴言314: The seventh petal-meditation, which can be achieved only when all other physical and mental weakness have largely been eliminated.第七分支——冥想,只有在所有其他身心的弱點消除之後才能得以實現。——《艾揚格箴言》第三輯(于伽編譯)

艾揚格箴言315: Yama, niyama, asana, pranayama, pratyahara, dharana, dhyana, and samadhi, all these are the petals of yoga.持戒,尊行,體式,調息,收攝,專注、冥想和三昧,所有這些構成瑜珈的花瓣。——《艾揚格箴言》第三輯(于伽編譯)

艾揚格箴言316: Indeed, in all these petals of yoga one needs a reflective or a meditative mood.的確,在所有的這些瑜珈花瓣裡,我們需要自省或者冥想的心境。——《艾揚格箴言》第三輯(于伽編譯)

艾揚格箴言(317-326)——《艾揚格箴言》第三輯(于伽編譯)

艾揚格箴言319: To practice pranayama people must have strength in their muscles and nerves, concentration and persistence, determination and endurance. These are all learned through the practice of asana.習練呼吸控制法人們必须拥有強健的肌肉和神經系統,專注与堅持,決心与忍耐。而這些都來自對體式練習的學習。——《艾揚格箴言》第三輯(于伽編譯)

艾揚格箴言320: Yoga says that the highest experience of freedom is Oneness, the supreme reality of unity.瑜伽指明自由的最高體驗是一,即至高的合一實相。——《艾揚格箴言》第三輯(于伽編譯)

艾揚格箴言321: Asana and pranayama are the apprenticeship to that transcendence of duality.體式和調息是訓練超越二元對立。——《艾揚格箴言》第三輯(于伽編譯)

艾揚格箴言322: Patanjali specifically said that asana teaches us to transcend duality, that is, hot and cold, honor and dishonor, wealth and poverty, loss and gain.帕坦伽利明確地強調體式教導我們超越二元對立,即冷與熱,榮與辱,富與貧,得與失。——《艾揚格箴言》第三輯(于伽編譯)
