the ultimate goal अनेक जन्म सम्सिद्धः

With the greatness of yoga , the flaws of a person are cleaned by a fortunate collection of births. With this, he obtains a life where he perseveres with renewed efforts.
In this way, even though a person who is on the path to realize the Self may deviate, he will definitely reach the same ultimate goal ( Moksha ).
By virtue of being focused on the ultimate goal, a person who practices yoga is said to be better-placed than others. This is stated in the next Shloka.
