Educational Q&A
The line begins a characterization of an extreme state of non-engagement: a being who neither relies on ordinary sensory perception (“does not see with the eyes”) nor participates in worldly activity (“does not move at all”). In ethical context, it points toward restraint and the limits of external action as measures of inner realization.
Jambuka is speaking and introduces (or continues) a description of a person/being defined by unusual detachment—marked by absence of ordinary seeing and any movement—setting up a reflection on ascetic qualities and the meaning of renunciation.
