व्यवहारी यदा कायो मनसा कर्मणा गिरा ।
भवेत्तदा मरुन्नुन्नो जीवधातुः प्रसर्पति ॥ १६ ॥

vyavahārī yadā kāyo manasā karmaṇā girā |
bhavettadā marunnunno jīvadhātuḥ prasarpati || 16 ||

When the body has its activity with the powers of the mind, speech and the other members of action, it is to be understood, that its vital element is put to motion by the vital breath which it breathes.
