Yogābhyāsarata (योगाभ्यासरत) refers to “one devoted to the practice of Yoga”, according to the Dattātreyayogaśāstra.—Passages on Vajrolī Mudrā in the early Haṭha texts are somewhat obscure. For example, the Dattātreyayogaśāstra (154-54) mentions a woman devoted to the practice of yoga (yogābhyāsarata) in its description of Vajrolī Mudrā but her role is unclear.
