    तानि सर्वाणि संयम्य युक्त आसीत मत्परः । वशे हि यस्येन्द्रियाणि तस्य प्रज्ञा प्रतिष्ठिता ॥

    tāni sarvāṇi saṁyamya yukta āsīta matparaḥ, vaśe hi yasyendriyāṇi tasya prajñā pratiṣṭhitā

    Holding all the senses in check, one should sit firm, devoted to Me. For one whose senses are mastered, the mind stands steady.
