II.28 yoganganusthanat asuddhiksaye jnanadiptih avivekakhyateh
*By dedicated practice of the various aspects of yoga, impurities are destroyed: the crown of wisdom radiates glory.
**Patanjali sums up the effects of yoga in this one sutra. He says that by regular and devoted practice, the impurities of the sadhakas 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. Yoga can cure or lessen our physical, mental, moral, and spiritual sufferings. Perfection and success are certain only if one practises with love and whole-hearted dedication.
