अन्य योगीलोग सम्पूर्ण इन्द्रियोंकी क्रियाओंको और प्राणोंकी क्रियाओंको ज्ञानसे प्रकाशित आत्मसंयमयोगरूप अग्निमें हवन किया करते हैं।Commentary
Just as a lamp is kindled by oil, so also the fire of the Yoga of selfcontrol is kindled by knowledge. When the Yogi concentrates or fixes his mind on Brahman or the Self, the senses and the breath cease to function. The senses and the breath are absorbed into their cause.
