The phrases
As the mind rests, so in the body, the senses, and the outer. The thing that is so is the breathing-into of 3.38. That noun is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति). The line does not repeat it.
Sanskrit in this line
vat (वत्) before ś (श्) becomes vac (वच्), and ś (श्) becomes ch (छ्). The recited join is cittasthitivac charīra (चित्तस्थितिवच् छरीर). Final t (त्) plus ś (श्) is cch (च्छ्).
Say it back
Say which noun is still in force, and name the three places in the locative.
