Lecture by Swami Tattwamayananda. Self-study, Svadhyaya, can be interpreted as mantra repetition, Japa. The four stages of mantra experience from the gross verbal level to the highest experience are explained. Perfect surrender to God yields the highest perfection in Samadhi, concentration. At this stage of studying the sutras, we start to gain a deeper understanding of the previous sutras. Asana, posture, becomes steady and effortless when the mind concentrates steadily on a transcendental idea through Yamas and Niyamas. Pranayama, breath control, is briefly explained. All practices must come as part of a natural progression. Verses: II.44, II.45, II.46, II.47, II.48, II.49, II.50
