Five signs of the obstacles in Yoga

Chapter 4 - Who Is God 

Day 31

These obstructions and obstacles cause dukha, sorrow. Dourmanasya means bitterness in the mind. Dukha or sadness gives way to bitterness, dourmanasya. You do not feel good with anybody. There is bitterness with others and there is bitterness with oneself.

Angamejayatva comes next. It means that your body is not obeying you, just like a drunkard. A drunkard wants to go to the left but his body takes him to the right. He wants to walk straight, but his body goes haywire. He tries to hold his glass but goes on putting his hand on the table away from the glass. 

This lack of coordination between the body and the mind is Angamejayatva. The body does not listen to you. You want to walk but the body does not move. These are the five signs of the obstacles overtaking you - Dukha - sadness, dourmanasya - bitterness, bhrantidarshana - hallucination, angamejayatva - lack of co-ordination of the body, it is not listening to you, shwaasa prashwaasa - irregular, shaky and uncomfortable breathing.
