Chittas that which is attained by Samadhi is desireless.

Verse 4.6

तत्र ध्यानजभ अनाशमभ ् ॥ ६ ् ॥

tatra dhyanajam anashayam

Among the various Chittas that which is attained by Samadhi is desireless.

Having explained the creation by the single mind of multiple thoughts which disturb the poise of the original mind, Patanjali's says here that this 'sprouted' mind should be cultured, stilled and silenced through profound meditation.

This puts an end to the influence of impressions, and frees the consciousness from entanglements with objects seen, heard or known.

Meditation not only frees consciousness from past impressions but also removes the obstacles to the progressive evolution of the mind. Impressions of attachment and affliction continue to torment others.

These obstacles, lust, anger, greed, infatuation, pride and jealousy, are the spokes of the emotional wheel. Meditation helps to subdue them so that the emotional centre (the consciousness of the heart} can expand in a new dimension of spiritual growth. Then consciousness will have neither merits nor demerits, virtue nor vice, fluctuations nor afflictions.

 It becomes 'cultured' (samahita citta}, and is conducive to experiencing kaivalya.
