Yoga (school of philosophy)

: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason Birch

³Û´Ç²µÄ«²Ô»å°ù²¹ (योगीनà¥à¤¦à¥à¤�) refers to the “master of Yogaâ€�, according to the DattÄtreyayogaÅ›Ästra verse 101.4 and Yogatattvopaniá¹£at 1.76-78.—Accordingly, while discussing the concerns about the use of Siddhis: “These [Siddhis] are obstacles to the great Siddhi (i.e., liberation). The wise [Yogin] does not delight in them. He should never reveal his own power to anyone, except sometimes he may do so to a devotee out of kindness. The Yogin should behave among people as though dumb, simple or deaf, in order to keep his powers hidden. If not, then there will surely be many students [who will] undoubtedly ask the master of Yoga (²â´Ç²µÄ«²Ô»å°ù²¹) [to intervene] in their own affairs. [Because of this,] he will become preoccupied with carrying out their actions and forgetful of his own [Yoga] practiceâ€�.
