Prayatnad yatamanas tu yogi samshuddha-kilbishah, aneka-janma-samsiddhas tato yati param gatim

The yogi who strives with great effort, purified of all impurities, perfected through many lifetimes — then attains the supreme goal. The supreme goal is reached not in a moment but through sustained effort across many lives, with each life building on the purification of the last.

  • Sustained effort over many lifetimes leads to the supreme goal
  • Purification of impurities is the cumulative work of a multi-life journey
  • Patient, persistent practice is always moving toward the highest attainment
