Here is the instruction about Yoga. The topic of Yoga is introduced. It aims to create harmony within the person, in the relationship with one s self and with others. Yoga existed long before Patanjals time, but this great master gave a synthesis of all the systems of Yoga in vogue during that period. The word anusasanam shows that this instruction has authority: it was experienced by ancient sages and trans mitted through the generations.These teachings arose from experiences that Patanjali shares with sincere seekers who are ready to apply them in their daily life.
这是关于瑜伽的阐述，示现了瑜伽的精髓。它的目的是在人的内在，在与自己和他人的关系中创造和谐。瑜伽早在帕坦伽利时代之前就存在了，但这位大师整合了那个时期流行的所有瑜伽体系。Anusasanam这个词表明了这一教导具有权威性：它是古代圣人经历的，并代代相传。这些教导源于帕坦迦利与准备将其应用于日常生活的真诚探索者分享的经验。
