Haṭha Yoga Pradīpikā / 4.88 Leave the thick, or leave the fine
4.88
Haṭha (हठ) Yoga Pradīpikā (प्रदीपिका)
घनमुत्सृज्य वा सूक्ष्मे सूक्ष्ममुत्सृज्य वा घने ।
रममाणमपि क्षिप्तं मनो नान्यत्र चालयेत् ghanam utsṛjya vā sūkṣme sūkṣmam utsṛjya vā ghane |
ramamāṇam api kṣiptaṃ mano nānyatra cālayet
The line
Leaving the thick, or leaving the fine for the thick, he should not move the mind elsewhere, even when it is delighted and thrown.
नेपालीमा
मोटो छोडेर, वा मसिनोलाई मोटोका लागि छोडेर, मन रमाएको र फालिएको भए पनि उसले मनलाई अर्कोतिर सार्नु हुँदैन।
Where it sits
The na anyatra (न अन्यत्र) is the verse's own. Whether he is with the thick sound or the fine, the mind stays on the sound.
Split: ghanam (घनम्) utsṛjya (उत्सृज्य) vā (वा) sūkṣme (सूक्ष्मे) sūkṣmam (सूक्ष्मम्) utsṛjya (उत्सृज्य) vā (वा) ghane (घने) / ramamāṇam (रममाणम्) api (अपि) kṣiptaṃ (क्षिप्तं) mano (मनो) nānyatra (नान्यत्र) cālayet (चालयेत्)
