Sutra 2.10 : Involution

When still subtle, afflictions can be removed by involution

YOGASUTRAS | SADHNAPADA | SUTRA 2.10

ते प्रतिप्रसवहेयाः सूक्ष्माः ॥१०॥

te prati-prasava-heyāḥ sūkṣmāḥ ||10||

“Those kleshas are reducible by involution when they are subtle.”

The purpose of this sutra is to explain how afflictions can be removed by the involutionary process, like cutting a tree from the top down, or down up.
