jyotiṣaś ca guṇo rūpaṃ cakṣuṣā tac ca gṛhyate | cakṣuḥ-sthaś ca sadādityo rūpa-jñāne vidhīyate ||
وایو نے کہا—نور (تیج) کی صفت ‘صورت’ ہے، اور اسے آنکھ کے ذریعے گِرہن کیا جاتا ہے۔ آنکھ میں ہمیشہ مقیم آدتیہ (سورج) صورت کے حقیقی ادراک کے لیے الٰہی مددگار مقرر ہے۔

Educational Q&A
Perception is not merely mechanical: form is known through the eye, yet the capacity to know form depends on light and on a divine ordering—symbolized by Āditya abiding in the eye—so cognition arises from the coordination of organ, quality (light), and presiding deity.
Vāyudeva explains the inner governance of the senses: he describes how sight functions, stating that visible form is apprehended through the eye and that the Sun-deity, present within the eye, is the appointed power enabling recognition of form.
