प्रत्याहारं विनिर्दिष्टतस्य संयमनं हि यत् । प्रत्याहारस्त्वयं प्रोक्तो धारणालक्षणं शृणु
pratyāhāraṃ vinirdiṣṭatasya saṃyamanaṃ hi yat | pratyāhārastvayaṃ prokto dhāraṇālakṣaṇaṃ śṛṇu
ແລະການຄວບຄຸມ (ສັງຍະມະນະ) ທີ່ໄດ້ກ່າວໄວ້ນັ້ນ ແທ້ຈິງແມ່ນ ປຣະຕະຍາຫາຣ (pratyāhāra). ດັ່ງນັ້ນ ປຣະຕະຍາຫາຣ ໄດ້ຖືກສອນແລ້ວ; ບັດນີ້ຈົ່ງຟັງລັກສະນະຂອງ ທາຣະນາ (dhāraṇā) ຄືການຕັ້ງຈິດໃຫ້ໝັ້ນ.
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta) to the sages (deduced)
Scene: A schematic yet devotional scene: yogin with a subtle ‘ladder’ of limbs behind—prāṇāyāma, pratyāhāra, dhāraṇā—each as a lotus step; the mind shown settling onto a single flame.
Pratyāhāra is essentially restraint of the outward-moving faculties; from that basis one proceeds to dhāraṇā.
No holy site is mentioned in this instructional verse.
A practice-sequence is indicated: establish pratyāhāra (restraint) and then learn dhāraṇā (focused holding).
