Note
In this passage, Rong zom pa provides a lengthy hermeneutical elaboration on the meaning of "yoga" in the context of discussing sgom pa. He begins by defining "yoga" as the "authentic selfhood of non-dual union". He then distinguishes between non-thematic and thematic yogas. The former comprises both a holistic type, a "yoga which takes up the whole" of one's psycho physical being with a view directed to non-individuality of oneself and the world at large, followed by a dissolving type which recognizes that all phenomena are mind influenced and that neither phenomena nor mind can be established as anything essential. The thematic yogas correspond more or less to the positions of the different philosophical systems. Rong zom then offers a lengthy hermeneutical analysis of the term yoga.
