तावद्रूढा सुधाकाररसा संविन्महानदी ।
न यावदात्मरूपेण निपुणैरवगाह्यते ॥ १८ ॥

tāvadrūḍhā sudhākārarasā saṃvinmahānadī |
na yāvadātmarūpeṇa nipuṇairavagāhyate || 18 ||

So long as the adepts in yoga, do not plunge themselves (lit.—their souls), in the fresh and sweet waters of the great fountain of their consciousness; they must be exposed to the boisterous waves of the dangerous ocean of this world.
