Śaṅkarācārya's commentary

When the Yogin is satisfied with knowledge (jñāna) of things as taught in the scriptures, and with wisdom (vijñāna) — i.e., with the realisation in his own experience of the things so taught — then he is said to be a saint (yukta), he is said to have attained samādhi or steadfastness of mind.
