Suffering, despair, trembling of the body (anxiety, nervousness), and irregular breathing follow the previously mentioned obstacles.

These are the “canaries in the coal mine,” the signals that alert us to the fact that we’re facing an obstacle to freedom and to realization of the Self. They are the side effects that accompany the obstacles to liberation mentioned in the previous sūtra, 1.30. They alert us to the fact that it’s time to pay attention, discover the obstacle, and work with it.
