Lecture by Swami Tattwamayananda. Swami describes once again the lake of accumulated samskaras, impressions, and memories, which constitute our character. The practice of Yamas and Niyamas can take us out of the trap of these accumulated tendencies. Even if we cannot, we can surrender ourselves to God. Then we can move towards the positive, naturally, the negative go away. If you are a Buddhist, you don’t need to be concerned about this option that Patanjali points out. Their goal of Nirvana is very much related to the Nirodha state. It is not a state of repression but a state of transcendence. The tenth sutra says one then is able to permanently dwell in a state beyond the influence of Samskaras. Verse: III.10
