Shloka 20
ये त्वन्ये तत्त्वकुशलास्तेषामेतन्निदर्शनम् । अतः पर प्रवक्ष्यामि योगानामनुदर्शनम्,दूसरे भी जो तत्त्वविचारकुशल दिद्वान् हैं, उनका भी ऐसा ही मत है। इसके बाद मैं योगियोंके शास्त्रका वर्णन करूँगा
ye tv anye tattvakuśalās teṣām etan nidarśanam | ataḥ paraṁ pravakṣyāmi yogānām anudarśanam ||
Yājñavalkya said: “Those other sages too, who are skilled in discerning the truth, hold this very view—this is its illustration. Therefore, next I shall set forth the authoritative exposition of the yogic disciplines, as they are to be understood and practiced.”

That the view just stated is not merely personal opinion: other truth-discerners (tattvakuśalāḥ) also accept it, and on that basis the speaker proceeds to a structured exposition of yoga as a disciplined path of understanding and practice.
In Śānti Parva’s didactic setting, Yājñavalkya is continuing a philosophical instruction: he cites the agreement of other wise investigators as confirmation of the point made, then announces a transition to describing the yogic system in an orderly manner.
