Key Takeaways:

Other obstructions accompany the distractions detailed in previous sutra: pain, grief, inability to sit still and non-cessation of breath.

Dukh - Because the mind is distracted, it attaches itself to the unreal, and experiences pain and pleasure, which further derail the sadhak.

Daurmanasya - The grief and depression which engulf a being owing to non-fulfillment of desires.

Angamevjayatva - Stilling of bodily movements (including movement of eyeballs) is the first step, when the mind is distracted this is not achievable.

Shvasaprashvasa - Our breath too is a distraction, which brings our awareness back to the body and surroundings. In states of dhyan, there is natural cessation of breath as the being draws prana from subtler sources.
