अर्थMeaning
Yâgñavalkya continued: 'Now when that Self, having sunk into weakness , sinks, as it were, into unconsciousness, then gather those senses (prânas) around him, and he, taking with him those elements of light, descends into the heart When that person in the eye turns away, then he ceases to know any forms.

व्याख्याVyakhya
'जब यह आत्मा दुर्बलता को प्राप्त होकर मानो मूर्च्छा को प्राप्त होता है, तब ये प्राण (इन्द्रियाँ) इसके चारों ओर एकत्र होते हैं। वह इन तेज की मात्राओं (इन्द्रिय-शक्तियों) को समेटता हुआ हृदय में ही उतर आता है। जब यह नेत्र में स्थित पुरुष (बाहर से) लौट जाता है, तब यह रूप को नहीं जानता।'
