Haṭha (हठ) Yoga Pradīpikā (प्रदीपिका)
हठं विना राजयोगो राजयोगं विना हठः ।
न सिध्यति ततो युग्ममानिष्पत्तेः समभ्यसेत् haṭhaṃ vinā rājayogo rājayogaṃ vinā haṭhaḥ |
na sidhyati tato yugmam āniṣpatteḥ samabhyaset
The line
The verse says haṭha (हठ) without rāja (राज) yoga does not succeed, and rāja (राज) yoga without haṭha (हठ) does not succeed. Therefore he should practice the pair together up to completion.
नेपालीमा
श्लोकले राजयोग बिना हठ सिद्ध हुँदैन र हठ बिना राजयोग सिद्ध हुँदैन भन्छ। त्यसैले उसले जोडी पूरा हुञ्जेल सँगै अभ्यास गर्नुपर्छ।
Where it sits
The na sidhyati (न सिध्यति) is the verse's own, said of each one taken apart from the other. Yugma (युग्म) is the pair. Āniṣpatteḥ (आनिष्पत्तेः) is up to completion. 4.103 says every haṭha (हठ) means of laya (लय) is for the success of rāja (राज) yoga.
Split: haṭhaṃ (हठं) vinā (विना) rājayogo (राजयोगो) rāja (राज) + yogaṃ (योगं) vinā (विना) haṭhaḥ (हठः) / na (न) sidhyati (सिध्यति) tato (ततो) yugmam (युग्मम्) āniṣpatteḥ (आनिष्पत्तेः) samabhyaset (समभ्यसेत्)
