Translation: (Ch) and just as (koormH) a tortoise (sarvashH) from all sides (angaani) limbs (iv) like withdraws; likewise (yadaa) when (ayam’) this person (indriyarthebhyaH) from sense objects (indriyaani) senses (sanharte) withdraws in all respects; then (tasya) his (pragya) mind (pratishthita) is steadfast. One should think this. (58)
Translation: And just as a tortoise withdraws its limbs from all sides; likewise, when this person withdraws the senses from the sense objects in all respects, then one should consider that his mind is steadfast.
