We
consider here the Yoga Suttas of Patanjali, a classical text and
revered in Hinduism, dated at approx. 200 BC and compared its semantics
and vocabulary to Buddhist canonical texts.

In
summary, this comparison is quite obvious that the author of Yoga Sutta
was highly influenced by Buddhist philosophy and meditation practice,
possibly contemporaneously to the author.

Moreover,
it appears that a student of Buddhist canonical texts may in fact be
more easily understood than the Yoga Sutta a Hindu practitioner with no
other previous reference parameter practical and philosophical.

The
proximity of the Yoga Sutta-style, vocabulary, and subject to canonical
texts in Pali could also mean simply that Patanjali - or whoever it is
that inspired his writings - had practiced meditation from a Buddhist
contemplative community, a community of monks for a time before
returning to Brahmanism and then the movement would have rephrased his
experience in order to add a divine touch to your experience, making
substantial use of technical terms of Buddhist meditation, as originally
framed or developed by the Buddha for the purpose of contemplative
practice. But this would be pure speculation, because there is so far no
studies or historical finding that supports this understanding.

It
is also possible, even likely, that the Buddhist meditation had so
broadly permeated the practice Hindu / Brahman at the time (after years
of a strong cultural influence began with Buddhist proselytism promoted
by Ashoka the Buddhist Sangha in his reign and Consolidation of
Prabuddha Bharat), that these technical terms as well as descriptions of
practice of jhana / dhyana (meditative absorptions) have it built into
common knowledge at the point of no longer sounding particularly
Buddhists. Something similar to what happens today with the adoption of
the ideas of “Nibbana” and “Kamma” in Western culture, in Christian
countries.

In
particular, if the Yoga Sutta is read in one continuous line is amazing
how close the text is the thoughts and topics about samadhi, jhana
meditation and Samatha (concentration) as defined in the ancient texts
in Pali Buddhist.

For
a first analysis, an overview. Look at the “Ashtanga Yoga” or the
“Eightfold Path of Yoga” (sic) we are certainly inclined to think the
definition of the central Buddha of the Noble Eightfold Path.

“Eightfold Path of Yoga” (sic) we are certainly inclined to think the
definition of the central Buddha of the Noble Eightfold Path.
Then compare these two “paths to reach the samadhi.”
First what is in the Yoga Sutta of Patanjali:
1. Yama, on the field conduct, morality or virtue
2. Niyama, self-purification and study
3. Asana, proper posture
4. Pranayama, breath control
5. Pratyahara, the removal of the five senses
6. Dharana, concentration or apprehension of the object meditative
7. Samadhi, meditative absorption
And
down the list of steps recommended by the Buddha when asked about the
gradual development through his teachings. This list is found in many
suttas of the volumes of speeches and Mean Length Long, as in other
parts of the Canon:

parts of the Canon:
1. Sila, moral conduct or virtue, and Santosa, contentment
2. Samvara, containment or removal of the senses
3. Kayagata-sati and Iriyapatha, or “Asana” means the cultivation of mindfulness and four correct postures.
4. Anapanasati, mindfulness of breathing
5.
Overcoming Obstacles or five nivarana (sensual desire,
ill will, anxiety and remorse, sleep and torpor, doubt, skeptical)

ill will, anxiety and remorse, sleep and torpor, doubt, skeptical)
6. Sati, mindfulness, keep the object in mind, often quoted along with the comments dharana canonical.
7. Jhana, levels of meditative absorption
8. Samadhi, a result of absorption, the “realization” of various kinds or Samāpatti
Of
course we’re not the first to notice similarities such as the list
above. A handful of other authors have noted some more and others less
obvious parallels. In fact, even Wikipedia has an entry for Yoga Sutta
in which we read:

“Karel

reminds us of formulations of the Buddhist Pali Canon and even more

that Patanjali was influenced by the success of the Buddhist monastic
system to formulate its own matrix for the version of thought he
considered orthodox (…) The division between Eight States (Sanskrit
Ashtanga) Yoga is reminiscent of the Noble Eightfold Path of Buddha, and
the inclusion of brahmavihara (Yoga Sutta 1:33) also shows the
influence of Buddhism in parts of the Suttas. “

Now
this is where the subject becomes interesting for us here on this blog
and its relevance to the practice of Buddhist meditation.

Does
all the above tells us that the Yoga Sutta is a comment Hindu / Brahmin
or at least a photograph of meditation practices common (influenced by
Buddhism) in the second century BC?

is because the text is not a Buddhist but shares a “core” of

to a deeper understanding of some of the terminology in the context of the first centuries of Buddhist practice.
Thus,
if the Yoga Sutta is read in a Buddhist context, one can have some idea
of how people understood at that time and (ou!) practiced Buddhist
meditation? Could this be of some help in triangular or point of which
was the direction of former Buddhist meditation?

The
more we know how people practiced a few centuries after the Buddha’s
Parinibbana, the more we can understand how some of his teachings have
evolved and how they were implemented and explained / taught.

What
makes this fascinating idea is that this text would definitely be
filterable through the eyes of a Hindu / Brahman, but he is still
influenced by the “knowledge” of Buddhist meditation apparently so well
received, and the time of his writing had become the mainstream
“contemplative practices. This would show us how and in what particular
point, was considered to be the “essence” of meditation (in addition to
being philosophical discussion of its purpose) in order to be considered
universally true, then that can be “merged” into other forms of
practice religious.

Under
this view, the Yoga Sutta is actually quite revealing. Consider a few
passages that copies may shed light on this idea. Passages like the
following really seems a direct copy and paste the Buddha-Dhamma. Some
of them even make much sense in a context of religious doctrine
theological-in-search-of-the-soul-creationist , but it fits absolutely
in the philosophy of liberation through concentration and wisdom.
However, they were considered “truth” and “accepted” so that the author
Hindu / Brahman had no other choice but to incorporate them into their
theistic philosophy, reminding us Western Christians today that due to
the common acceptance of the idea karma / kamma, sometimes find ways to
incorporate this idea in their religious views.

Let’s start seeing the following list of impurities that Yoga Sutra tells us must be overcome:
“Avidya
(ignorance), Asmita (egoism), raga-Dvesha (desires and aversions),
Abhinivesha (clinging to mundane life) are the five klesha or distress.
Destroy these afflictions [e] You will realize Samadhi. “

Abhinivesha (clinging to mundane life) are the five klesha or distress.
Destroy these afflictions [e] You will realize Samadhi. “
[Free translation of the original quote from Wikipedia]
What
impresses the reader as Buddhist before this paragraph is the simple
fact that all these impurities listed are those that no longer are you
supposed to Arahant one, or Awakened (!!!). That is, according to the
text of Patanjali, the “Samadhi of Conduct” would be conceptually the
same as the Buddhist Liberation.

Consider the terms used:
Avijja,
ignorance or mental turvidão is even mentioned in the first place,
while clearly a Buddhist point of view is considered the root of all
problems.

Then
“asmita”, which is superficially translated as “selfishness” by
understanding that had developed in shallow Sanskrit tradition that was
ignorant of the deeper meaning of that term as used in the suttas of the
Pali Canon (or tried to distort to suit your context religious).

This
term Buddhist in particular, pointing to the deeply embedded “notion
that it is” (ASMI-tā) has a clear explanation in the suttas, but here in
this passage and elsewhere, is reduced to a mere “selfishness” as a
moral impurity devoid of its original psychological application. In the
suttas “ASMI-Mana” is a deeply rooted psychological tendency that only a
Arahant (Iluminsfo) won [see post “The scent of am” blog Theravadin].

And
there is also “abhinivesa”, a term the Buddha uses to explain how our
mind comes in and assumes the five groups of attachment. The term
“Nives” denotes a dwelling, a house - a simile brought by the Buddha to
show how our consciousness moves “inside” of the contact experience of
the senses and settles as if living in a house (see Sutta Nipata,
Atthakavagga , and Haliddakani Magandiya Sutta Sutta). This usage is
decreased very particular psychological context in Hindu / Brahmin to
denote only an “attachment to worldly life.”But here is worth
questioning whether this was also shared by superficial understanding or
just by Patanjali Yoga Sutra later commentators, who have lost sight of
these implications for not having knowledge of or access to the
preceding context of Buddhism in the Yoga Sutra was written?

And
sometimes something awakening about the “sati” Buddhist can also be
found. We have another pearl of a Buddhist point of view, which can be
considered truly revealing: the use of the word “Dharana” in the text of
Patanjali.

This
is one area in which our contemporary knowledge of Buddhism can benefit
from insights. The term “Dharana”, which literally means short and “I
can hold, carry, keep (in mind)” is a good description of the task faced
in Buddhist contemplative practice, regardless of what tradition /
schoolconsidered.

In
meditation we also need to maintain our meditation object firmly in
focus in mind, without losing it. This central feature of the task
undertaken when trying to cultivate meditative concentration, relates as
an equivalent to the literal meaning of the Buddhist term “sati” (which
means reminder / recall) and what is general and now translated simply
as “mindfulness” - a translation that often aboard with questions.

And
the reason is as follows, in summary: To maintain the object of
meditation in mind you need to remember it. Remember here that means you
have to hold, keep in mind, your object of concentration. This is
exactly what makes the faculty of memory, usually being pushed away by
the impressions with new information by the six senses, which, if
penetrated, would result in more or less a wild spin.

If
you are able to sustain their concentration on one point however - or
even as much as you can keep it, one of the laws of functioning of the
mind that the Buddha rediscovered and explained in detail that this
rebate is “artificial” senses the support and focus on a particular
mental object equivalent to a minor sensory stimulus.

As
a result of mental calmness and happiness (piti) and happiness index
(sukha) will arise and show signs of the primeirs a stronger
concentration - these being two of the five factors of meditative
absorption (jhana), along with (i) directed thought (vitakka) (ii)
sustained (Vicara) and (iii) equanimity (Upekkha).

This
is also the reason why is quite logical that samma sati, mindfulness,
has to come before samma samadhi, full concentration in the Noble
Eightfold Path of Buddhism - or, as shown in this case in the Yoga
Sutta, “Dharana” would be the stage immediately prior to “Delivering the
Samadhi.”

In this case
the Yoga Sutra throws much light on the original meaning as understood
in the early centuries of Buddhist practice and can help us reach a more
precise understanding of what “samma sati, right mindfulness,
originally meant or pointed. (In Theravadin blog post is a rather plain
and that shows how sati yoniso manasikara are coming in practical terms,
check this link ).

On
the opposite side, or better, understanding it as a byproduct of the
practice of sati is no other term that would best be described as
“mindfulness.” The Pali term is sampajaññā - which literally means
“next-consideration”, eg, be well aware of when performing an action,
then a “clear understanding” of what it does - but this activity is a
result of sati, as having the mind fixed on an object leads to a refined
consciousness that arises when during the next and keep the mind of an
object, creating a clear understanding of the few sensory impressions
that may enter. According to this concept, mindfulness would be a result
of sati and not the practice of sati in itself!

But
again, both activities are happening almost simultaneously, even if not
in the same order and then the current use of the term translated can
be done - at the same time a fine distinction, however, has its
benefits. You can not keep an object from the standpoint of mind without
which would create or develop mindfulness in mind - but
(unfortunately!) you may be aware of all your actions that you work
without the right concentration - as when eat an ice cream, in seeking
the sensual pleasure, an example of improper care. This being the fact
that unfortunately idealize the interpretations of some Westerners who
want to say “Buddhist”.

There
is a difference between deliberately let himself be led by sense
impressions by focusing on their physical pleasures and enhancing /
supporting raga (desire) and nandi (joy) - and, from the perspective of
Gotama Buddha, put his feet on the ground using the mindful memory and
thus experiencing a more refined awareness of trying to get it off the
shaft so that it results in a greater mindfulness, in the culmination of
his experience flows into total equanimity in the face of both
pleasurable and painful sensations.

Thus,
then, we must understand as vipassanā is no way a synonym for
mindfulness (sati) but something that springs from the combination of
all these factors especially the last two, samma sati (mindfulness) and
samma samadhi (right concentration) applied to the relentless
observation of what appears to be in front of (yathabhuta).

You
could say, vipassanā is a name for the Buddhist practice of sati
associated samadhi directed to the view anicca / anatta / dukkha (ie,
generating the wisdom of the vision of these three features) in the
processes of the six senses, including any mental activity. Thus, one
will find the term vipassanā but the idea of sati in the Yoga Sutra,
Buddhist texts mention as the first term clearly having samādhi as just
the beginning of the journey to insight and access - for example
aniccanupassana .

Finish
here the parenthesis. Suffice to say that any particular reference to
the Buddhist philosophy citing anicca antta or point to the goal of
Nibbana, a philosophical proposition to which the system of Yoga
certainly does not refer.

In
essence the school of Yoga can be placed below the postures
eternalists. So, while it definitely does need to produce sati-samadhi,
definitely does not need to understand is samadhi anicca, dukkha and
anatta - that does not sound very compatible with the worldview of a
eternalistic. Before this, all spiritual approach arise due to the
attempt to interpret Samadhi Yoga Sutra as marriage or at least as close
as you can get from a “God”, a “Lord.” Something that sounds quite
natural in the end to a theist - such as an Evangelical Christian would
never interpret the reduction of its focus on mental object unique
sensual ecstasy and consequently a mere effect of a psychological
technique, but he would label it “the divine sign of God touching him.

It is for this reason that, according to the Buddha Dhamma, in fact in
most situations we are inclined to be led by the plots of our senses,
including the mental impressions / thoughts / feelings / perceptions -
and therefore tend to limit ourselves to go beyond such experiences also
distorted the merger would allow access to insight and liberation.

Returning
to the context of comparison with the Christian interpretation of this
ecstasy, in short what Patanjali is facing such a theistic
interpretation sounds like someone moving a large portion of vocabulary
and terminology for the New Testament, which gives this ring a Buddhist.

The
funny thing is that this is exactly how many of the contemporary New
Age books are written - an amalgam of the terms of Western Spirituality /
Christian trying to express a view east. So one can imagine that the
situation in India was similar to that when the Yoga Sutta was written
addressing the Buddhist philosophy of that era.

addressing the Buddhist philosophy of that era.
The
remaining Buddhist philosophy with his particular terminology
established by the Buddha himself would have become so pervasive in
religious thought, so to make seemingly trusted what was written on
meditation was a need to borrow or rely on several of these Buddhist
concepts predominant. This had largely been done or even conscious, as
most New Age authors present not even reflect the content of their texts
but about the message you want to spend.

Thus,
below is done in a way a translation - or rather a translation of a
transliteration given the proximity between languages - as was done with
the text of the Yoga Sutra in Sanskrit brought back to Pāli. Similar to
what has been done this Sutra ( Theravadin available on the blog, in
English on this link ), the exercise helps us see how the same text
would sound the Pāli language, opening then find parallels in ancient
Buddhist texts, the suttas.

However,
having said all that, pragmatism invoked by the text (which is what
makes it so valuable) also indicates much more than a simple textual
exploration. As you read this you can not discern the notion, especially
since the position of a meditator concentration of whoever has written
or inspired by this text, at some point personally experienced jhana and
samadhi and wanted to convey his experience making use a rich language
Buddhist meditation on the same interpretation being directed to an
audience Brahman / proto-Hindu India 200 BC.

Patañjalino yogasuttaṃ (Part I of IV)
Introduction
atha yogānusāsanaṃ | | 1 | |
And now a statement about the European Union (Yoga)
[1] Read yourself to be the object of meditation, or an instruction (anusāsana) on the meditative practice (yoga).
yogo-citta-vatta nirodho | | 2 | |
The Union (Yogo) is the extinction of the movement of the mind
[2]
in this passage denotes vatta turbulence, swirl, activity - literally
wandering, circling, confused. In this context broadly means “meditation
is (…) a stop to the busy mind,” which is very active and its activity
suggests a walk in circles. Probably the most direct (and correct)
translation.

Tada ditthi (muni) svarūpe’avaṭṭhānaṃ | | 3 | |
(Only) then he who sees is allowed (to be) in (his) true nature.
[3]
In the Pāli language Drist the word does not exist, and it would be
something like subsitituída by Muni, which has the same meaning -
,except, of course, the fact that “he who sees” further points in
this,case the seeing process. Here was however used the term Pāli ditthi
so as to maintain the link with the term semantic ditthi. The alternate
translation is then: “So lets see who (or have the opportunity -
avaṭṭhāna) of being in their true and natural.”

i) pamanes, experience or clear-measurement
Paccakkh’ānumān’āgamā honte pamāṇāni | | 7 | |
What one sees and looks directly (paccakha), taking as a reference - it’s called experience.
[7] Literally: “What comes through direct visualization and measurement is called the experience”
ii) Vipariyesa, misperception or illusion
Micca vipariyeso-Nanam atad-rūpa-patiṭṭhitaṃ | | 8 | |
Illusion is the wrong understanding, based on something (lit. “one way”) that is not really.
iii) Vikappa, Thought Intentional / Keen
Saddam-ñāṇānupattī vatthu-Sunna vikappo | | 9 | |
Intentional
Thinking / Willing is any way of understanding and unfounded assertion
(ie the internal speech, voltiva, partial and willful, based on mental
speculation).

silent babble that passes through our being.

iv) Nidda, Sleep / Numbness
abhava-paccay’-ārammaṇā vatta Nidda | | 10 |
Mental activity in the absence of mental objects is called Sleep / Torpor.
v) Sati, the Memory / Mindfulness
Anubhuti-visayāsammosā sati | | 11 | |
Not to be confused (or not lose) the object (sensory) previously experienced is called Memory / Mindfulness.
Abhyasa-virāgehi Tesam nirodho | | 12 | |
The extinction of these [activities] comes from the practice of detachment / cessation of passions (turning)
[12]
We have here the words turn and nirodha in the same sentence! It can
not be more Buddhist canon than this! Interestingly, however, is the
current use and non-metaphysical terms of this stretch. They are applied
in a simple process of meditation, in particular the process of
concentration meditation. This can not go unnoticed and goes directly in
line with readings jhanic cultivation practices in Buddhism.

This is the climax: the abandonment of the current headquarters of the senses, based on personal revelation / knowledge of self.
[16]
Here we turned a Brahman, is this approach that allows the soul to win
the seat / attachment, Tanh. And this short sentence has much to offer!
At that moment in history, Patanjali was so convinced of the Buddhist
goal of “opening up the attachment, the seat stop,” which boils down to
vitaṇhā term he uses. However, it does not give up without a soul which
its theistic philosophy simply collapses and nothing in the text would
make it distinguishable from a treatise on the Buddha Dhamma. Thus,
mounted on a meditative Buddhist terminology and guidelines in the
conversation he introduces the term “Puris, which can be read as” soul,
“saying that the more you get closer to its” intrinsic nature “(svarūpa)
and inner body “Puri, or soul, you become able to stop itself this
seat/ attachment. Interesting.

[17]
Here we describe an almost identical description of the first jhana
used time and again by the Buddha in Pali texts ( see this example ).
Indeed, we have a very beautiful description of the first jhana as a
form of sampajaññatā (fully aware of what is happening), after the plan
of the form (the theme of our meditation is a mental form) and a
combined happiness at the thought we are trying to grasp what itself
could be described as the pure experience of “I am” (Asmita - the term
is being used more loosely in place as would suttas).

However,
the announcement vitakka / vicara the first mention of meditative
absorption is a clear reference to the origin of Buddhist Yoga Sutra.
Interesting also is the connection that is being done now with
sampajaññatā: Think of everything we have said before about sati. If
sati is simply the seizure of an object (the paṭṭhāna of sati, so to
speak), so it’s interesting to see how sampajaññā this case, is
identified with the state of the first jhana. Could this mean that when
the Buddha mentions these two texts in Pali, which implicitly means
samatha-vipassana?

This
is not at all a strange idea, like many vipassana meditators, focusing
on objects will be much more subtle quickly show signs of the first
jhana. Could it be then that the term “sampajaññatā” was seen as the
first result of a concentrated mind?

In
any case, experience will teach you very quickly that when you try to
hold an object in your mind, your awareness of what happens at this time
will increase dramatically, simply due to the fact that his effort to
keep the object is under constant danger during the siege of sense.

[20] The Buddha mentions these five factors when he was training arupa jhana under his previous two teachers.
He
also mentions how crucial factors when striving for enlightenment under
the Bodhi tree. Later, during his years of teaching, he gave the name
of “powers” (bullet) and explained that, if perfected, would lead to
enlightenment.

Besides the question whether the term “Issar” found here could be read
as merely referring to a master of meditation (which fits perfectly into
the discussion until verse 27, where it starts to not fit any more) is
ikely discussion, including on-line translation of the Yoga Sutra by
Geshe Michael Roach . The principle can be interpreted so as to skeptics
recalling the first sutta MN seemed more logical to assume Issar was
first used to designate “the Lord” (ie your God).

But
with a little more research found that the term Issar Theragatha us are
used to designate the “master”. Interesting is also the word in Pali
āsayih replaced simple wish / desire - “Asa.” But “almost” sounds like
“Asava” that would fit even better in the context of kamma and vipaka
Asava.But the idea is very specific (”that which flows within you,
taking it) and may or may not be what was meant in this passage.

On the panavah term, which can be interpreted as “om” in Hindu

to mean “God” or simply refer to consider meditation master of

when the Buddha used the term was to refer to teachers (see for example
Theragatha)

Here dukkha and Domanassam mentioned. They also appear in the
definition of the Buddha’s four jhana, but in a different direction. The
problem described here meditative seems out of place and looks as if
someone had to fit these words here. Also the inhale and exhale clearly
has an important role in that they cease to exist (nirodha) so
subjective to the practitioner in the fourth jhana. It is strange that
all this is on the list, but is presented in a very different
interpretation.

[33]
And here we go. The four brahmavihara, of course, famous for the way
Buddha encouraged monks to practice them to subdue the obstacles and
enter the five jhana. It is also interesting as the Tipitaka sometimes
aligns them with the progression in four jhana (which deserves to be
studied separately).

and 35] Wow, now includes Anapanasati to the list of meditation
techniques, the most favorite topics of Buddhist meditation, in addition
to brahmavihara, which “coincidentally” was mentioned in the previous
passage. Here he almost “cites” the benefit of Anapanasati of Pali
suttas, the Buddha gave in the Anapanasatisamyutta Mahavagga, where it
is clearly said that the greatest benefit of Anapanasati is the ability
to quiet the mind. Very interesting!

This
whole concept fits nicely into a row of theistic argument, and no
attempt is being made here in the final set of samadhi, to explain it.

Did
the Buddhists speak of this matter so that among the philosophical
circles “mainstream” of the time it was automatically understood as “the
highest you can get,” and the argument was so powerful that, despite
not fit in the school already thinking of the times (an ancient
Hinduism) was considered indisputable?

Hard
to say. This argument appears in the Sutta Ratanasutta Nipata.Vemos
this final state, without seeds, as something that would target when
trying to “Sanna-vedayita-nirodha” cessation of perception and feeling, a
realization of the Buddha described as possible Arahants Anagami for
that, after entering the eighth jhana sequentially finally leave
theactivity more subtle (the sankhara) back.

Before starting the Asanas (as-anas) or the yogic postures, it is vital
that you start with the practice of Pranayama (praa-na-yaa-ma) or the
yogic breathing exercises.
And what is Yogic Breathing (Pranayama)
Pranayama
is loosely translated as prana (pra-aana) or breathe control. Breathing
affects our state of mind. It can make us excited or calm, tense or
relaxed. It can make our thinking confused or clear. In the ancient
yogic tradition, air is the primary source of life force, a
psycho-physio-spiritual force that permeates the universe. Yogic
breathing is used in yoga as a separate practice to help clear and
cleanse the body and mind. It oxygenates the lungs by getting rid of
enormous quantity of carbon dioxide and other toxic gases. It is also
used in preparation for asana, the practice of yogic postures and
meditation, to help maximize the benefits of the practice, and focus the
mind.
