Full explanation of Yoga Sutra 2.21 at link in bio (https://fearless.yoga).
"The World exists for you to find your Purpose. "Tadartha Eva Drśyātmā Atma, Yoga Sutra 2.21
Tadarthah: for the purpose Eva: alone Drsyasya: of the seen, nature – Prakrti Atma: spirit, seer, Self
Translated literally, this sutra says, "The Knowable Material World Is Only For the Experience Of the Self." However, the surrounding context of the Sutras invites us to go beyond our singular experience to discover the underlying "WHY" -- our purpose for being.
Students in the @larkinyogatv #uplifted program (and many other Yoga Teacher Training programs) discussed this sutra as part of the study of the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali. This article is a short review of the different interpretations.
“They say that the knowable material world is only for the experience of the spirit. The point is that this whole world is for experience. So go through the world, understand what it is, face it. What I feel is that in our daily practical life, if we want suffering, we suffer, if we want wisdom from the world, do that. It is our choice. The world is there in front of you. The plate is put, now what do you want to do of it is up to you. So this thinking should continuously be there in our mind.”-- Smt. Hansaji J. Yogendra
