Yoga Sūtras · योगसूत्र

One hundred and ninety-six aphorisms, compressed to the edge of unreadability without a commentary — which is itself the point, since they were built to be unpacked by a teacher rather than read alone. The eight limbs run from restraint and observance through posture, breath and withdrawal to concentration, meditation and samādhi. The structural rhyme is with the graded ascent literature the app already carries: seven palaces, each with its own discipline and its own way of failing. Both traditions insist the sequence is not decorative — you cannot start at the top, and the ones who try are the cautionary tales each tradition keeps.
