Then the key points of sādhanā leading to enlightenment are discussed. Further it is discussed why enlightened yogis cannot communicate information that is beyond the “veil of ānanda”. The points discussed are illustrated also graphically. Key words Ātma-jñāna, yoga, Patanjali, Ramana Maharshi Gejza M. Timčák
