Saptamopadeśaḥ (Samādhi) · Verse 23
षट्कर्मयोगमासनं मुद्रा प्राणायमस्तथा | ध्यानं समाधिरित्येतद्धठयोगपदं भवेत् ||
ṣaṭkarmayogam āsanaṃ mudrā prāṇāyamas tathā | dhyānaṃ samādhir ity etad haṭhayogapadaṃ bhavet ||
Final synthesis of the complete system. The six components of haṭha yoga according to Gheraṇḍa:
- Ṣaṭkarma — purification
- Āsana — postures
- Mudrā — seals
- Prāṇāyāma — breath control
- Dhyāna — meditation
- Samādhi — absorption
These are the “steps” (padāni) of the path. Each prepares the next, and together they constitute complete haṭha yoga.
