28. Constantly engaging himself thus, the yogi freed from taint attains with case to the infinite bliss of contact with Brahman.

Constantly engaging himself thus, ALWAYS ENGAGING THE MIND IN THE MANNER AFORESAID, AND QUITTED OF ALL OBSTACLES TO Yoga, the yogi freed from taint, EVIL, attains with ease, WITHOUT DIFFICULTY to the infinite bliss, THE BLISS THAT IS BEYOND LIMIT, SUPERLATIVE, UN­ EXCELLED, OF contact with Brahman[1], THE SUPREME.
