I don't know because aside from what I read I have no first-hand experience with the Yoga Sutras.

To be honest I don't even pay much mind to seeing things just as they are. I just practice technique as best as I can and sometimes find myself in that place where everything seems to drop out. It's an odd place where time, space and mind don't seem to exist in the way we normally experience them and I'm always surprised when the timer goes off because it seems like I just started though I "know" I was sitting in that space for some time.
