Chapter 4 verse 26
“Some again offer hearing and other senses as sacrifice
in the fire of restraint; others offer sound and other objects of senses as
sacrifice in the fire of the senses”
The attitude and self control levels are the drivers to
determine how much detachment is attained from the senses. In the previous
verse, Lord pointed to 2 ends of the spectrum- those who aspire to control one
or all of their senses and the other end operate with the attitude that
everything is immutable Self itself. In this verse, Lord is talking more of
sense end of the spectrum. He is referring to people who want to hear only good
things and God’s name and chant only divine’s word. This practice would lead people
to go inward into the Self and contemplate on it.
