Educational Q&A

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.
