27

Verse 27

The Yoga of Renunciation

Shutting out all external sense objects, keeping the eyes and vision concentrated between the two eyebrows, suspending the inward and outward breaths within the nostrils, and thus controlling the mind, senses and intelligence, the transcendentalist aiming at liberation becomes free from desire, fear and anger.

Context & Meaning

Verse 27 and 28 together describe the meditator's technique: external sense-objects excluded, gaze centered between the eyebrows, breath balanced — mind, senses, and intellect stilled. This is the doorway to moksha.
