191 See S.P. Gupta (1977): 77–81 and 449–452 (references to Śā.1 and 5). Jyotir Mitra (1982): 349–359 discusses the connections between the Carakasamhitā and Yoga in some detail. He points to Ca.Śā.1.98–102 as indicating acquaintance with a concept related to the cittavṛttinirodha of the Yogasūtras; Śā.1.138–139, where vaśitva and yoga are described; Śā.1.140–141, where siddhis are mentioned; Śā.1.150–151, where mokṣa is referred to; Sū.8.29 and 9.26, where maitrī, kāruṇya, harṣa and upekṣā are mentioned (cf. Yogasūtra 1.33); Ci.1.430, which refers to ahiṃsā (cf. Yogasūtra 2.35). Cakra's commentary on the Carakasamhitā introduces concepts derived from Yoga (for example, ad Ca.Śā.3.20cd–22ab).
