Commentaries around

“The next stage in meditational unity is
to refine the deliberation on a gross object.
This arises when the memory is purified, and
is as if empty of its own content, so that only
the true nature of the gross object shines forth.
This is called Nirvitarka or refined gross deliberation.”
– Paul Harvey on Yoga Sūtra Chapter One verse 43
