Haṭha (हठ) Yoga Pradīpikā (प्रदीपिका)
स बिन्दुस् तद् रजश् चैव एकीभूय स्वदेहगौ ।
वज्रोल्यभ्यासयोगेन सर्वसिद्धिं प्रयच्छतः sa bindus tad rajaś caiva ekībhūya svadehagau |
vajrolyabhyāsayogena sarvasiddhiṃ prayacchataḥ
The line
That drop and that rajas, become one, gone in their own bodies, give every success by the yoga of the vajrolī (वज्रोली) practice.
नेपालीमा
त्यो बिन्दु र त्यो रज एक भएर आफ्नै शरीरमा गएका वज्रोली अभ्यासको योगले हरेक सिद्धि दिन्छन्।
Where it sits
The oneness is the verse's claim.
