श्रुत्वा स्पृष्ट्वा च दृष्ट्वा च भुक्त्वा घ्रात्वा विमृश्य च ।
इन्द्रमानन्दयत्येषा तेनेन्द्रियमिति स्मृतम् ॥ २७ ॥

śrutvā spṛṣṭvā ca dṛṣṭvā ca bhuktvā ghrātvā vimṛśya ca |
indramānandayatyeṣā tenendriyamiti smṛtam || 27 ||

The mind is called sensation, because all its actions of hearing and feeling, of seeing and smelling, thinking and enjoying, serve to delight the senses, which convey the impressions back to the mind.
