व्यवसायात्मिका बुद्धिरेकेह कुरुनन्दन | बहुशाखा ह्यनन्ताश्च बुद्धयोऽव्यवसायिनाम्

哦，俱卢（Kuru）王朝的后裔，在此（瑜伽之道）中，只有一种单一、专注的信念。而那些犹豫不决者的思想，确实枝蔓繁多，无穷无尽。
O scion of the Kuru dynasty, in this there is a single, one-pointed conviction. The thoughts of the irresolute ones have many branches indeed, and are innumerable.
在此通往至福的道路上，只有一种坚定的思想，即一心一意的决心。这种单一的思想源于正确的知识。瑜伽（Yoga）的修行者通过辨别、离欲和专注来汇集所有散乱的心念。他摆脱了心灵的动摇或犹豫。而那些沉溺于轮回（Samsara）泥沼的世俗之人，则没有一心一意的决心。他们心生无数念头，心智总是摇摆不定。如果念头止息，轮回（Samsara）也随之止息。心智产生无尽的念头，世界因此而生。念头、名相是不可分离的。如果念头得到控制，心智便得到控制，瑜伽士（Yogi）便获得解脱。
Here? in this path to Bliss there is only one thought of a resolute nature there is singleminded determination. This single thought arises from the right source of knowledge. The student of Yoga collects all the dissipated rays of the mind. He gathers all of them through discrimination? dispassion and concentration. He is free from wavering or vacillation of the mind.The worldlyminded man who is suck in the mire of Samsara has no singleminded determination. He entertains countless thoughts. His mind is always unsteady and vacillating.If thoughts cease? Samsara also ceases. Mind generates endless thoughts and this world comes into being. Thoughts? and names and forms are inseparable. If the thoughts are controlled? the mind is controlled and the Yogi is liberated.
