भावार्थ:

और कछुवा सब ओर से अपने अंगों को जैसे समेट लेता है, वैसे ही जब यह पुरुष इन्द्रियों के विषयों से इन्द्रियों को सब प्रकार से हटा लेता है, तब उसकी बुद्धि स्थिर है (ऐसा समझना चाहिए)॥58॥

Translation

One who is able to withdraw the senses from their objects, just as a tortoise withdraws its limbs into its shell, is established in divine wisdom.
