Verse 6.69.41

तालवृन्तस्य संस्पन्दे शान्ते शान्तो यथानिलः ।
प्राणानिलपरिस्पन्दे शान्ते शान्तं तथा मनः ॥ ४१ ॥

tālavṛntasya saṃspande śānte śānto yathānilaḥ |
prāṇānilaparispande śānte śāntaṃ tathā manaḥ || 41 ||

As the waving of the palm leaved fan being stopped, there is a stop of the ventilation of air in the room; so the respiration of the vital breath being put to a stop, there ensues a total stoppage of the succession of our thoughts.
