Excerpt from Journal Of The American Oriental Society, 1915, Vol. 34 The Toga-sutras of Patanjali as illustrated by the Comment entitled The Jewel's Lustre or Maniprabha. - Translated by James Haughton Woods, Professor of Philosophy in Harvard University, Cambridge, Mass. Book First: Concentration. I praise Him unalloyed by hindrance or any such thing, Hari, the Primal Man, - the Enjoyer of the primary-substance, Sita, - Him who is the Lord of Yoga and the Giver of Yoga. Bowing down devoutly to Patanjali the Author of the Sutras, and to the Silent Sage Vyasa, the Author of the Comment, I shall set forth an Exposition upon the Yoga called the Jewel's Lustre and, so far as my mind permits, worthy to be esteemed. In this [sutra], as every one knows, the Exalted Patanjali, to assist the activity of the learned, tells what is to be taught by the book.
