यद्वै तन्न जिघ्रति जिघ्रन्वै तन्न जिघ्रति न हि घ्रातुर्घ्रातेर्विपरिलोपो विद्यतेऽविनाशित्वान् न तु तद्द्वितीयमस्ति ततोऽन्यद्विभक्तं यज्जिघ्रेत्
yadvai tanna jighrati jighranvai tanna jighrati na hi ghrāturghrāterviparilopo vidyate'vināśitvān na tu taddvitīyamasti tato'nyadvibhaktaṃ yajjighret
अर्थMeaning
'And when (it is said that) there (in the Sushupti) he does not smell, yet he is smelling, though he does not smell. For smelling is inseparable from the smeller, because it cannot perish. But there is then no second, nothing else different from him that he could smell.

व्याख्याVyakhya
'वहाँ जो वह नहीं सूँघता, सो सूँघता हुआ ही नहीं सूँघता; क्योंकि घ्राता की घ्राण-शक्ति का कभी लोप नहीं होता, वह अविनाशी है। पर वहाँ उससे भिन्न, अलग कोई दूसरा है ही नहीं जिसे वह सूँघे।'
