2.27 Wisdom in the final stage is sevenfold

Grace

तस्य सप्तधा प्रान्तभूमिः प्रज्ञा

tasya saptadha pranta bhumih prajna

Wisdom in the final stage is sevenfold.
Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, 2.27

tasya = it has
saptadha = sevenfold
pranta = final
bhumih = stage
prajna = wisdom

The flowers have seven colours to represent the seven stages, connecting with themes like the seven chakras and rainbows! 🌈

This sutra also reminded me of the seven mansions of the soul, as described by Teresa of Avila in her book, The Interior Castle. So that’s why I drew a castle first (can see it in the video below). 🏰 💖
