Why: when the disciplined mind rests only in the Self, free from longing for all desires, one is then said to be established in yoga, naming an internal quieting of restless wanting as the actual marker of arrival, not any external achievement.
In life: chasing the next external goal indefinitely, without ever pausing at genuine satisfaction, is its own kind of restlessness that never actually settles.
Teaching: notice whether you ever let yourself simply rest in a genuine sense of enough, or whether you immediately reach for the next craving the moment one is satisfied.
