Meaning
Niyataharah means persons of regulated or limited food. They take moderate food. By rigid dieting they control the passions and appetites by weakening the functions of the organs of action. Yogis pour the lifreaths as sacrifice in the controlled lifreath. The former becomes merged in the latter. Performance of the above sacrifice leads to the purification of the mind and destruction of sins.
