Yoga Sutras 2.21 meaning

tadartha eva drishyasy-atma
तदर्थ एव दृश्यस्यात्मा॥

The very purpose of the seen world is to serve the seer.

What it means
Everything you go through, good and bad, is there for your growth and understanding. Seen this way, even difficulties become teachers rather than punishments. Ask what each one is teaching you.

हिंदी में अर्थ

दिखने वाले जगत का अस्तित्व केवल देखने वाले के लिए ही है।

आप जो कुछ भी अनुभव करते हैं, अच्छा या बुरा, आपकी समझ और विकास के लिए है। ऐसे देखें तो कठिनाइयाँ भी सज़ा नहीं, शिक्षक बन जाती हैं।

Spoken by Patanjali.
