अधिगतकमलासनक्रमास्ते परिगलितेतरतुच्छवृत्तिजालाः ।
सततमतितरां कुशासनस्थाश्चिरमिति पङ्कजकल्पने विरेजुः ॥ ५१ ॥

adhigatakamalāsanakramāste parigalitetaratucchavṛttijālāḥ |
satatamatitarāṃ kuśāsanasthāściramiti paṅkajakalpane virejuḥ || 51 ||

In this manner these Brahmans continued for a long period in their devotion, being fully acquainted with the nature of Brahma, and possest of the spirit of that deity in themselves. They sat in their posture of the padmasana on seats of kusa grass, being freed from the snare of the fickle and frivolous desires of this false and frail world. It is evident from this instance of the Brahmans' devotion, that it consisted of the contemplation of every thing in the world in the mind of man; like that of the whole universe in the mind of God. It is the subjective view of the objective that forms what is truely meant by yoga meditation and nothing beside.
