ब्राह्मणानुयात्रा—शौनकोपदेशः
Brāhmaṇas Follow into Exile and Śaunaka’s Instruction
षडिन्द्रियाणि विषयं समागच्छन्ति वै यदा । तदा प्रादुर्भवत्येषां पूर्वसंकल्पजं मन:,जब मन और पाँचों इन्द्रियाँ अपने विषयोंमें प्रवृत्त होती हैं, उस समय प्राणियोंके पूर्वसंकल्पके अनुसार उसीकी वासनासे वासित मन विचलित हो उठता है
ṣaḍindriyāṇi viṣayaṃ samāgacchanti vai yadā | tadā prādurbhavaty eṣāṃ pūrvasaṅkalpajaṃ manaḥ ||
当六根趋向各自之境时，那由先前意向与潜藏习气所塑成的心便起而不安，动荡不定。
शौनक उवाच
Educational Q&A
Sense-contact triggers the mind’s previously formed intentions and latent desires; therefore, ethical steadiness requires guarding the senses and recognizing how past resolve and impressions reassert themselves.
Śaunaka states a general principle about inner life: when the senses turn outward to their objects, the mind—conditioned by earlier mental formations—manifests and becomes agitated, setting the stage for further discussion on restraint and conduct.
