Yogasutra Kaivalyapada sutra 4-6

Yogasutra Kaivalyapada sutra 4-6
Sri Sadgurbhyoh Namah
4. Nirmana chittani asmita matrat
Chitta (mind) springs from the sense of I (asmita).
5. Pravritti bhede prayojakam chittam ekam anekesam
Depending on activity, mental identities are formed. For eg: "I am a doctor" is professional identity. "I am an indian" is regional identity etc.
If one asks oneself, who am I ? any answer that comes to mind is a mental identity.
6. Tatra dhyanajam anasayam
Of all the identities the one identity that emerges out of meditation is the one that cause no-bondage and does not accumulate karma.
