瑜伽論記 1.45

1.45

Regarding the word "and so forth" stated earlier at the initial heading, the Commentary further says: 'Such sacred teachings are also named yoga, because they match correct principle, accord with correct practice, and lead to the correct fruition.' This text is easily understood; since principle is included within the object, it is not mentioned again. Another view holds: Directly taking the meditative practices of the three vehicles is what is termed yoga. Because by repeatedly cultivating and advancing, conforming to principle and according with practice, one obtains superior fruition, therefore the objects, fruitions, and sacred teachings—being the objects of yoga, the fruitions of yoga, and the expounders of yoga—are also named yoga.
