न जाग्रति न च स्वप्ने न सुषुप्ते न निर्मले ।
नासिते न च वा पीतरक्तादौ शबले न च ॥ ५ ॥

na jāgrati na ca svapne na suṣupte na nirmale |
nāsite na ca vā pītaraktādau śabale na ca || 5 ||

It must not think of its waking or dreaming states, nor those of its sound sleep or internal clearness of sight;nor should it take any colour as white, red, black or yellow for the object of its thought or sight.
