Yoga Sutra 4.26 the mind is inclined to discrimination

Sūtra IV.26

Then the mind is inclined to discrimination, and is borne on towards Aloneness

His mind, that was inclined to objects, borne on to Ignorance, now in his case has changed, and is borne on to Aloneness.

And when the vision of the One apart has arisen, Then the mind is inclined to discrimination (viveka) and is borne on towards Aloneness (kaivalya). His mind that was inclined to objects, on the slope towards objects borne on to Ignorance, taking its stand on Ignorance and turned to saṃsāra, now in his case, namely when there is vision of the One apart, has changed and is borne on to Aloneness, and is inclined to discrimination. So it is clear that a counter-current to the former stream is now flowing.
