Where it sits
Parallel to 3.39, a different wind, a different fruit. 3.41 leaves the winds and returns to saṃyama (संयम), on ear and space.
Split: samāna (समान) + jayāt (जयात्) + jvalanam (ज्वलनम्)
Sanskrit, in depth
The words
| Word | Grammar | Sense |
|---|---|---|
| samāna (समान) | stem | samāna (समान). The middle breath, left as a name. |
| jayāt (जयात्) | ablative singular | from mastery. |
| jvalanam (ज्वलनम्) | nominative singular, neuter | a blazing, a burning radiance. |
The phrases
From mastery of samāna (समान), a blazing. jayāt jvalana (जयात् ज्वलन) is again jayāj (जयाज्), t (त्) before j (ज्). The fruit is a single neuter nominative. The line does not say the body catches fire. jvalana (ज्वलन) is the radiance this mastery shows.
Sanskrit in this line
Same sandhi as 3.39. Once jayāj (जयाज्) is in the ear, this line is the pattern with a new name.
Say it back
Pair it with 3.39. Two winds, two fruits.
Next
3.41. From saṃyama on the relation of ear and space, divine hearing.
