परमाणु परममहत्त्वान्तोऽस्य वशीकारः॥४०॥
para-maannu param-amahatt-vaanto-asya vashi-kaaraha ॥40॥

In the translation of Ravi Ravindra, “For one whose mind is clear, mastery extends from the most minute particle to the largest expanse.” No longer are we talking of how to clear the mind in order to meditate, nor the importance of meditation, but how to practice, and what to expect beyond the process. True meditation is defined by Patanjali as 'pure awareness', beyond the ego personality with thoughts, mind and feelings. Just absorbed into pure consciousness, an Awareness that one is. And everything and everyone in the Universe is. Beyond time and space, beyond past, present and future, ALL IS!
