SYNONYMS

śrotrādīni: hearing and other | indriyāṇi: senses | anye: others | saṃyamāgniṣu: in the fires of restraint | juhvati: offer as oblations | śabdādīn: sound and the rest | viṣayān: objects of the senses | anye 1: some others | indriyāgniṣu: into the fires of their senses | juhvati 1: offer as oblations |

TRANSLATION

Others offer as oblations hearing and other senses in the fires of restraint. Some others offer as oblations the objects of the senses, such as sound and the rest, into the fires of their senses.

PURPORT

Others endeavour towards the restraint of the senses like ear and the rest, i.e., keep themselves away from the objects pleasing to the senses. Other Yogins endeavour to prevent the attachment of the senses to sound and other objects of the senses, i.e., they abstain from the sense objects even when they are allowed to be near, by the discriminative process of belittling their value and enjoyable nature.
