风神伐由说道：“这便是‘十一重的投射’——由心识的分别作用而生——其上由 बुद्धि（理智）为王而主宰。此即所谓最上的十一之组。”
वायुदेव उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse frames human experience as an ‘elevenfold’ functional system: ten sense-faculties plus the mind, with buddhi (intellect) as the governing power. Ethical clarity depends on buddhi ruling the mind and senses rather than being ruled by them.
Vāyudeva continues a philosophical instruction describing how the inner faculties are structured and how they operate—presenting the mind’s role in manifesting sensory activity and the intellect’s role as the presiding authority.
