Mokṣa-dharma Yoga-Upadeśa: Equanimity, Sense-Restraint, and Vision of the Ātman (आत्मदर्शन-योगोपदेशः)
पुरस्याभ्यन्तरे तस्य मन: स्थाप्यं न बाह्मत:। एकान्तमें ध्यान करनेवाले पुरुषको जिस प्रकार योगकी प्राप्ति होती है
purasya abhyantare tasya manaḥ sthāpyaṃ na bāhmataḥ | ekāntam evaṃ dhyāna-karṇe vāle puruṣa-ko yathā yoga-kī prāpti hotī hai, vah suno—yo upadeśa pahale śrutim̐eṃ dekhā gayā hai, usakā cintana karke jis bhāga meṃ jīva-kā nivāsa mānā gayā hai, usī meṃ mana-ko bhī sthāpita kare | usake bāhar kadāpi na jāne de ||
バラモンは言った。「心をその内なる『都』（すなわち身体）の内に据え、外へ向けてはならぬ。独り静かに一点に凝らして禅観する者が、いかにしてヨーガを得るかを聞け。すでにシュルティ（Śruti）において知られた教えを省察し、生ける自己（アートマン）の住処と理解されるその部位に、心を正確に安置し、決してその外へさまよわせてはならぬ。」

Educational Q&A
The mind should be established inwardly—within the ‘city’ of the body—by reflecting on Śruti-based instruction and fixing attention at the recognized seat of the jīva; spiritual attainment comes from preventing outward wandering and sustaining one-pointed meditation.
A Brahmin speaker gives a yogic instruction: he explains the method by which a solitary meditator attains Yoga—through scriptural reflection and strict inward fixation of the mind, refusing external distraction.
