42.7
tathoṅkāramayo yogī tvakṣare tvakṣaro bhavet /
prāṇo dhanuḥ śaro hyātmā brahma vedhyamanuttamam //
As the syllable Om being pronounced reaches the head, the yogi who is lost in meditation of Om should become united with Brahma, the Supreme Soul. Life is his bow, the soul is his arrow, Brahma is the target sublime. It is to be pierced by the heedful man; he should be united with Brahma, as the arrow becomes embedded in the target.
