Source: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason BirchTroṭayitvā (त्रोटयित्वा) refers to “having torn free from” (the mind-net), according to the Amanaska Yoga treatise dealing with meditation, absorption, yogic powers and liberation.—Accordingly, as Īśvara says to Vāmadeva: “[...] When the wings, which are the in and out breaths and whose sphere of operation is all the senses, are cut off, the mind-bird being motionless [in the air], plummets. [The Yogin] becomes joyful like a fish having torn (troṭayitvā) [free from] the mind-net, whose threads are the breath and whose knots are the senses. [...]”.
