Amritnada Upanishad: Verse 8
प्राणायामैर्दहेद्दोषान्धारणाभिश्च किल्बिषम् । प्रत्याहारेण संसर्गाद्ध्यानेनानीश्वरान्गुणान् ॥८॥
प्राणायामैः । दहेत् । दोषान् । धारणाभिः । च । किल्बिषम् । प्रत्याहारेण । संसर्गात् । ध्यानेन । अनीश्वरान् । गुणान् ॥८॥
prāṇāyāmair dahed doṣān dhāraṇābhiś ca kilbiṣam | pratyāhāreṇa saṃsargād dhyānenānīśvarān guṇān ||8||
साँस रोकने से पाप जलते हैं, मन टिकाने से बुरापन खत्म होता है। इंद्रियों को अंदर करने से बुरी संगत छूट जाती है, ध्यान से मन गुणों के ऊपर आ जाता है।
By breath-restraints one should burn faults; and by concentrations, sin (kilbiṣa). By withdrawal (one is freed) from contact (saṃsarga), and by meditation (one overcomes) non-sovereign qualities (anīśvarān guṇān).
- doṣān dhāraṇābhiḥ → doṣān dhāraṇābhiḥ (anusvāra/hal-sandhi)
- saṃsargād dhyānena → saṃsargāt dhyānena
- dhyānenānīśvarān → dhyānena anīśvarān.
