Yoga Sutra 1.4

वृत्ति सारूप्यमितरत्र ॥४॥

vṛtti sārūpyam-itaratra ॥4॥

  1. vṛtti: modification, pattern
  2. sārūpyam: identification
  3. itaratra: in other state


Or there is identification with the modifications of chitta.

What happens otherwise to purusha?: When the chitta vrittis are not in the state of nirodha, then the modifications of chitta are superimposed on purusha. Here purusha means the gross body, the self.
