Translation
When through the practice of Yoga the restrained mind attains calm, and when the aspirant sees the Self by the Self and is satisfied within the Self; when he experiences that supreme bliss which is transcendent, beyond the senses, and grasped by the intellect—the practitioner of meditation, established in that bliss, is never swayed from the truth; when having attained that gain, no other gain seems greater to him, and when established in it he is not shaken even by the heaviest sorrow—disunion from union with sorrow is what should be known as Yoga. The practice of this meditation Yoga should be performed with resolve and with an unwavering mind.
