Chapter-8 Tāraka Brahma Yogaḥ
agnir-jyotir-ahaḥ śuklaḥ ṣaṇmāsā uttarāyaṇam | CommentaryHere, the term ‘time’ is used in the sense of a path, having many presiding deities beginning with day and ending with year. Fire and light are the deities who preside over divisions of time. The meaning is — “I declare to you the path, departing by which, Yogis do not return and also the path departing by which, the doers of good actions return.” By the clause, ‘Light in the form of fire, the day, bright fortnight, six months of the northern course’ a period of a year also is denoted. |
