    Commentaries around

    “In the Yogavallī, T Krishnamacharya’s commentary on the Yoga Sūtra,
    Śraddhā has been seen in a different, very interesting way.
    In it, he has said that Śraddhā is a symbol for a special meditation
    and he calls this meditation, Ahaṃ Graha Upāsana.
    Aham is the I, Graha is to grasp and Upāsana is to stay near.
    Where a person wants to grasp the true nature of the I,
    it is called Ahaṃ Graha Upāsana.”
    – TKV Desikachar on Śraddhā in the Yoga Sūtra
