चक्षुः श्रोत्रे नासिका त्वक्च जिह्वा ज्ञानस्यैतान्यायतनानि जन्तोः । तानि प्रीतान्येव तृष्णाक्षयान्ते तान्यव्यथो दुःखहीनः प्रणुद्यात्॥५-३२-२४॥

The eye, the ears, the nose, the skin, and the tongue—these are the bases of cognition for a living being. When craving comes to exhaustion, these very faculties become tranquil; then, free from distress and suffering, one should restrain and withdraw them.
