वेदनावेदनाकारा स्पन्दास्पन्दात्म वै पुनः ।
चिन्मात्रस्यास्य तद्भ्रान्तिशान्तौ शान्तात्म निर्मलम् ॥ १४ ॥

vedanāvedanākārā spandāspandātma vai punaḥ |
cinmātrasyāsya tadbhrāntiśāntau śāntātma nirmalam || 14 ||

The carnal mind distrusting the reality of these impressions of consciousness, and disregarding the internal operation of the inward intellect; becomes restless for its sensuous enjoyment and exercise of the outward organs of action, until by abatement of this fervour, it is restored to its inward peace and tranquillity.
