Lecture by Swami Tattwamayananda. If we get tempted after reaching a high level of Samyama, we will have to take many more births to get back on the real track. A great king renounced his kingdom but got attached to a baby deer. He had to be reborn as a deer, then as a human being and finally reached liberation. We should always be aware of the dangers. The goal of yoga is not to run away from danger but to run toward something higher: our spiritual ideal. Samyama on individual particles of time leads to an awareness of impermanence. This understanding yields discerning wisdom, Viveka. Verses: III.50, III.51, III.52
