In this sūtra we continue to understand the nature of Īśvara in Patañjali's yoga system.
स पूर्वेषामपि गुरुः कालेनानवच्छेदात्
सः पूर्वेषां अपि गुरुः कालेन अन्वच्छेदात्
Being unconditioned by time, he is the teacher of the ancients
सः He Īśvara; nominative, masculine, singular.
पूर्वेषां of the ancients; genitive plural.
अपि also; indeclinable
गुरुः Teacher; nominative, masculine, singular.
कालेन by time; instrumental singular.
अन्वच्छेदात् [on account of] not being limited, not being conditioned; ablative singular अनु+अ +√छिद्
