...en parlant, en lâchant, en saisissant, en ouvrant et en fermant les yeux, se souvenant que les sens agissent sur leurs objets.
-5.9 Remaining absorbed in the Self, the knower of Reality should think, 'I certainly do not do anything', even while seeing, hearing, touching, smelling, eating, moving, sleeping, breathing, speaking, releasing, holding, opening and closing the eyes-remembering that the organs function in relation to the objects of the organs.
Le sage libéré, ou jñāni, demeure toujours un témoin des activités des sens, car il s'identifie à l'Âtman ou au Brahman. Il pense et dit : 'Je ne vois pas, les yeux perçoivent. Je n'entends pas, les oreilles entendent. Je ne sens pas, le nez sent', etc. Il perçoit l'inaction dans l'action, ayant brûlé ses actions dans le feu de la sagesse. (Cf. XIV.19-23)
The liberated sage or a Jnani always remains as a witness of the activities of the senses as he identifies himself with the Self or Brahman. He thinks and says? I do not see the eyes perceive. I do not hear the ears hear. I do not smell? the nose smells? etc. He beholds,inaction in action as he has burnt his actions in the fire of wisdom. (Cf.XIV.1923)
