नात्मज्ञस्यैष विषय आत्मज्ञो ह्यात्मवान्स्वयम् ।
आत्मनात्मनि संतृप्तो नाविद्यामनुधावति ॥ १३ ॥

nātmajñasyaiṣa viṣaya ātmajño hyātmavānsvayam |
ātmanātmani saṃtṛpto nāvidyāmanudhāvati || 13 ||

Volitation or flying is no business of the spiritualist, who is concerned with his knowledge of the soul only; he is content with his spiritual knowledge and union with the Supreme soul, and does not meddle with the practices of the ignorant practitioners of false yoga.
