SUTRA 2.52 is the star of todays episode and so is HANUMAN, the son of Vāyu — the God of wind. Hence he is also called Vāyuputra, Prāṇadeva. 

Tatah Kshiyate Prakasha Avaranam (sutra 2.52)
Patanjali has devoted this and the next sutra to explaining the benefits of pranayama. In sutra 2.52, he claims that through the fourth pranayama, the veil of karmasheya, which covers one’s inner light, diminishes and vanishes. 

The concept of karmasheya is introduced in previous sutras and it basically refers to a repository of latent impressions that are formed as a result of previous actions (karma). The impressions in this repository are called samskaras, and they rise, causing more karma, which in turn leads to stronger samskaras.  

According to this sutra, the repeated practice and experience of the fourth pranayama – the pure, ever-existing life force – makes the veil of karmasheya gradually disappear. That is, it helps one change the cycle of their karma, break the patterns in their actions, and let their inner light shine unhindered. Sounds promising, right? 

Prāṇāyāma helps the sādhaka to destroy the curtain that obscures the light of divine discriminative wisdom. 

You ask what a SADHAKA IS?  

A Sadhaka is A person who follows a particular sadhana, or goal-directed spiritual practice. 

And you ask  What is a sadhana practice? 

Sadhana is your daily spiritual practice. You may start by just setting aside some time each day to practice techniques and activities such as meditation, yoga, chanting, and reading sacred literature. However, if you are sincere in your spiritual journey, your whole life will eventually reflect your Sadhana.
