पुष्पस्यान्तरिवामोदः प्राणस्यान्तरवस्थितम् ।
न स प्राणं न वाऽपानं चिदात्मानमुपास्महे ॥ ६१ ॥

puṣpasyāntarivāmodaḥ prāṇasyāntaravasthitam |
na sa prāṇaṃ na vā'pānaṃ cidātmānamupāsmahe || 61 ||

Like fragrance in the flower, there is an essence indwelling within the vital breath also, and this is neither the prana nor apana, but the intellectual soul which I adore.
