Patanjali's Yoga Sutras - What is Yoga ?

atha yogā 'nuśāsanaṃ
yogaś citta vṛtti nirodhah
tadā draṣṭuḥ svarūpe 'vasthānaṃ
vṛtti sārūpyam itaratra


Now, the discipline of Yoga.
Yoga is cessation of the mind.
Then the witness is established in itself.
In other states, there is identification with the modifications of the mind.
