भावार्थ:

सब इंद्रियों के द्वारों को रोककर तथा मन को हृद्देश में स्थिर करके, फिर उस जीते हुए मन द्वारा प्राण को मस्तक में स्थापित करके, परमात्म संबंधी योगधारणा में स्थित होकर जो पुरुष ‘ॐ’ इस एक अक्षर रूप ब्रह्म को उच्चारण करता हुआ

Translation

Restraining all the gates of the body and fixing the mind in the heart region, and then drawing the life-breath to the head, one should get established in steadfast yogic concentration.

English Translation Of Sri Shankaracharya’s Sanskrit Commentary By Swami Gambirananda
