Sanskrit

इन्द्रियाणां हि चरतां यन्मनोऽनुविधीयते।

तदस्य हरति प्रज्ञां वायुर्नावमिवाम्भसि

indriyāṇāṁ hi charatāṁ yan mano ’nuvidhīyate
tadasya harati prajñāṁ vāyur nāvam ivāmbhasi

tasmāt: therefore;

yasya: whose;

mahā: bāho — O mighty-armed one;

nigṛhītāni: so curbed down;

sarvaśaḥ: all around;

indriyāṇi: the senses;

indriya: arthebhyaḥ — from sense objects;

tasya: his;

prajñā: intelligence;

pratiṣṭhitā: fixed .;

Therefore, O mighty-armed, one whose senses are restrained from their objects is certainly of steady intelligence.
