“When one clings neither to sense objects nor to actions, having renounced all self-serving plans — then he is said to have risen to yoga.”

— Original plain-language translation

Non-clinging is the summit-mark of 6.2 carried into daily contact. Both objects and deeds lose their grip. Renunciation of sankalpa completes the ascent.
