योगयुक्तस्य चित्तस्य शम एव निरूपितः ।
सम्यग्ज्ञानमिदानीं मे कथयानुग्रहात्प्रभो ॥ १ ॥

śrīrāma uvāca |
yogayuktasya cittasya śama eva nirūpitaḥ |
samyagjñānamidānīṃ me kathayānugrahātprabho || 1 ||

Rama said:—Sir, as you have related to me the methods of suspending the mind to a dead lock, by means of yoga practices; I hope you will kindly tell me now, the manner in which it is brought to stand still, by means of perfect knowledge.
