त्वचा क्षणविनाशिन्या प्राप्यमप्राप्यमप्यथ ।
चित्प्रसादोपलब्धात्मस्पर्शनं नास्म्यचेतनम् ॥ १२ ॥

tvacā kṣaṇavināśinyā prāpyamaprāpyamapyatha |
citprasādopalabdhātmasparśanaṃ nāsmyacetanam || 12 ||

I am neither the insensible organ of touch, or the momentary feeling of taction; but find myself to be an inward principle with the faculty of intellection, and the capacity of knowing the nature of the soul.
