अर्थMeaning
The mind departed, and having been absent for a year, it came back and said: 'How have you been able to live without me?' They replied: 'Like fools, not knowing with their mind, but breathing with the breath, seeing with the eye, hearing with the ear, generating with seed. Thus we have lived.' Then the mind entered in.

व्याख्याVyakhya
मन निकल गया। एक वर्ष बाहर रहकर लौटा और बोला, 'मेरे बिना तुम कैसे जी सके?' उन्होंने कहा, 'जैसे मूढ़, मन से न जानते हुए, प्राण से साँस लेते हुए, वाणी से बोलते हुए, चक्षु से देखते हुए, श्रोत्र से सुनते हुए, रेतस् से प्रजा उत्पन्न करते हुए — ऐसे हम जिए।' तब मन भीतर प्रविष्ट हुआ।
