| 總結: | The Pātañjalayogaśāstra is the key text of what is known as the yoga-darśana. It comprises two different textual layers: a sūtra, the Yogasūtra attributed to Patañjali, and a bhāṣya or commentary traditionally ascribed to Vyāsa. The problem regarding the authorship of the two texts has been widely discussed, and even some scholars defend the theory of a common author for both who would have lived around 400 AD. The present work is an annotated translation, accompanied by an introduction, of a significant passage of the Pātañjalayogaśāstra (II,12-18) relevant to understanding the notion of yoga contained in the treatise and, particularly, its conception of action or karman.
