तत्प्रकाशमयं ज्ञानं चिन्तितं सत्प्रयच्छति ।
येन योजनलक्षस्थं वस्तु नित्यं हि दृश्यते ॥ ७३ ॥

tatprakāśamayaṃ jñānaṃ cintitaṃ satprayacchati |
yena yojanalakṣasthaṃ vastu nityaṃ hi dṛśyate || 73 ||

Reflections of these lights are attended with the full blaze of intellectual light, whereby the meditative yogi sees in his heart objects, which are situated at the distance of millions of miles from him.
