Nāṭyaśāstra (नाट्यशास्त्र), rasa
बाष्पपरिप्लुतनयनः पुनश्च निःश्वासनदीनमुखनेत्रः ।
योगीव ध्यानपरो भवति हि निर्वेदवान्पुरुषः bāṣpapariplutanayanaḥ punaśca niḥśvāsanadīnamukhanetraḥ |
yogīva dhyānaparo bhavati hi nirvedavānpuruṣaḥ
The line
The eyes filled with tears, and again the face and the eyes pitiable with sighing: a man who has world-weariness becomes like a yogin absorbed in meditation.
नेपालीमा
आँखा आँसुले भरिएका र सुस्केरासँग अनुहार तथा आँखा दयनीय भएका निर्वेद भएको मानिस ध्यानमा लीन योगीजस्तै हुन्छ।
Where it sits
The verse's own comparison is the yogin in dhyāna (ध्यान). It is a likeness for the face of nirveda (निर्वेद), not a definition of yoga.
Split: bāṣpapariplutanayanaḥ (बाष्पपरिप्लुतनयनः) punaśca (पुनश्च) niḥśvāsanadīnamukhanetraḥ (निःश्वासनदीनमुखनेत्रः) / yogīva (योगीव) dhyānaparo (ध्यानपरो) bhavati (भवति) hi (हि) nirvedavānpuruṣaḥ (निर्वेदवान्पुरुषः)
