Or perhaps not.  What you're talking about is
psychology.  Nothing wrong with psychology per
se, but it's my distinct impression that isn't
what Patanjali was into.

Also, I wonder if Buddha would have agreed that
"Life is what arises from self-created mental
dramas which can be unraveled with a bit of
inquiry/analysis."  ;-)
