Withdraw the Gaze and Its Knowing

क्वचिद्वस्तुनि विन्यस्य शनैर्दृष्टिं निवर्तयेत्। तज्ज्ञानं चित्तसहितं देवि शून्यालयो भवेत्॥
kvacid vastuni vinyasya śanair dṛṣṭiṃ nivartayet | tajjñānaṃ cittasahitaṃ devi śūnyālayo bhavet
हिन्दी

किसी वस्तु पर अपनी दृष्टि को स्थापित करो। फिर धीरे-धीरे उस दृष्टि को वापस लौटाओ — और उसके साथ उस वस्तु का ज्ञान (बोध) भी समेटते जाओ। जब दृष्टि और उसका ज्ञान दोनों लौट आएँ, हे देवी, साधक शून्य का आलय (निवास) बन जाता है।

English

Rest the gaze on an object, then slowly withdraw it — together with the knowing of it; you become an abode of the void.
