Shloka 12
Cāturhotra as Inner Sacrifice (Yoga-Yajña) and Nārāyaṇa Recitation
मनसा गम्यते यच्च यच्च वाचा निगद्यते | श्रोत्रेण श्रूयते यच्च चक्षुषा यच्च दृश्यते
manasā gamyate yac ca yac ca vācā nigadyate | śrotreṇa śrūyate yac ca cakṣuṣā yac ca dṛśyate
Wika ng Brahmana: Anumang naaabot ng isip, anumang naipahahayag ng pananalita, anumang naririnig ng tainga, at anumang nakikita ng mata—iyan ang mga larangang ginagalawan ng karanasan ng tao, at nagiging saligan ng paghatol at pag-uugali.
