Yoga Sutras 1.5
Patanjali, explained by Swami Vivekananda
वृत्तयः पंचतय्यः क्लिष्टा अक्लिष्टाः ॥
vṛttayaḥ paṃcatayyaḥ kliṣṭā akliṣṭāḥ
There are five classes of modifications, (some) painful and (others) not painful.
In plain words: There are five kinds of thought-waves in the mind. Some cause pain and some do not.
