v7.c94.127

Pānini provides for the formation of the words *yama* and *niyama* (two *angas*) of Yoga and the word 'Yogin' appears to have been derived by him from the root '*yuj*' with the affix '*ghinun*' (i. e. *in*) in the sense of *tācchīlya* (being habituated to) according to Pān. III. 2. 142 (which is a very long sūtra).²²⁷⁹
