The verse repeats what the third said, but adds a condition absent there: yogam uttamam āsthitaḥ — “established in the highest yoga”.
Repetition with a proviso is a cautious device, and here a needed one. The book says things easily abused: take off the cord, shave the tuft, the rite is dispensable.
And each time it adds who may do so: the wise, the knower of yoga, the seer of truth, the established.
Note also the last word: cetanaḥ — “conscious, sentient”.
It is set against the unconscious, and therein lies the whole barb. He who wears the cord of cloth does what everyone does; he who wears the inner one is conscious — he knows what he does and why.
The next verse will speak of an unexpected fruit of such wearing.
