4.1
parāñci khāni vyatṛṇat svayaṃbhūs tasmāt parāṅ paśyati nāntarātman /
kaścid dhīraḥ pratyag ātmānam aikṣad āvṛttacakṣur amṛtatvam icchan //
1. The Self-existent (_svayambhū_) pierced the openings [of the senses] outward;
Therefore one looks outward, not within himself (_antarātman_).
A certain wise man, while seeking immortality,
Introspectively beheld the Soul (Ātman) face to face.
