राजयोगपदं चापि लभते नात्र संशयः ।

अनर्गला सुषुम्णा च हठसिद्धिश् च जायते rājayogapadaṃ cāpi labhate nātra saṃśayaḥ |
kumbhakāt kuṇḍalībodhaḥ kuṇḍalībodhato bhavet |

The line
He obtains the place of rāja (राज) yoga as well. The verse says there is no doubt here. From the kumbhaka comes the waking of kuṇḍalinī (कुण्डलिनी). From the waking of kuṇḍalinī (कुण्डलिनी) the suṣumṇā (सुषुम्णा) comes to be unbolted, and the success of haṭha (हठ) is born.
नेपालीमा
ऊ राजयोगको स्थान पनि प्राप्त गर्छ, र श्लोकले यहाँ शङ्का छैन भन्छ। कुम्भकबाट कुण्डलिनीको जागरण हुन्छ, कुण्डलिनीको जागरणबाट सुषुम्णाको अर्गल खुल्छ, र हठको सिद्धि जन्मन्छ।
