The minutest sin does not arise in him from the food he takes. Whatever is thought of by the mind, whatever is uttered by words, whatever is heard by the ear, whatever is seen by the eye, whatever is touched by touch, whatever is smelt by the nosc, form oblations of clarified butter which should all, after controlling the senses with the mind numbering the sixth, be poured into that fire of high merits which burns within the body viz., the Soul.
न चान्नाज्जायते तस्मिन् सूक्ष्मो नाम व्यतिक्रमः॥ मनसा गम्यते यच्च यच्च वाचा निगद्यते। श्रोत्रेण श्रूयते यच्च चक्षुषा यच्च दृश्यते॥ स्पर्शेन स्पृश्यते यच्च घ्राणेन घ्रायते च यत्। मनःषष्ठानि संयम्य हवींष्येतानि सर्वशः॥ गुणवत्पावको मह्यं दीव्यतेऽत:शरीरगः।
