इदमन्तरिदं बाह्यमिति निश्चयवांस्ततः ।
जीवो भावं यथादत्ते तत्तथा द्रढयत्यथ ॥ २२ ॥

idamantaridaṃ bāhyamiti niścayavāṃstataḥ |
jīvo bhāvaṃ yathādatte tattathā draḍhayatyatha || 22 ||

They reckon some as the internal senses, as the faculties of the mind and the feelings of the heart, and others as external, as the outward organs of action and sensation; and place their belief in whatever their souls and minds suggest to them either as false or true.
