mānasaḥ kila sargo'sau vītahavyasya tatra ye |
dehino bhrāntipātraṃ cettaddehākāriṇaḥ katham || 37 ||

It is thy reason that has wakened thee from thy dulness, and enlightened thy soul and mind with the light of truth; therefore should we bow down to reason above all others, as the only enlightener of our hearts and souls.
