Shloka 13
अग्निवंशवर्णनम् (Agni-vaṃśa-varṇana) / The Genealogy and Function of Agni
Devanagari script
यथास्वं ग्राहकाण्येषां शब्दादीनामिमानि तु । इन्द्रियाणि यदा देही धारयन्निव तप्यते,अपने-अपने विषयोंका अतिक्रमण न करके इन शब्द आदि विषयोंको ग्रहण करनेवाली इन इन्द्रियोंको जब आत्मा अपने वशमें करता है, तब मानो वह तपस्या करता है
Transliteration
yathāsvaṃ grāhakāṇy eṣāṃ śabdādīnām imāni tu | indriyāṇi yadā dehī dhārayann iva tapyate ||
Translation
Indra-indra ini masing-masing menangkap objeknya sendiri—seperti bunyi dan lainnya. Ketika sang diri yang bersemayam dalam tubuh menahan dan menguasai mereka, tidak membiarkan mereka melampaui batasnya, itu seakan-akan ia sedang menjalankan tapa.
