म्हणौनि तोचि स्थिरप्रज्ञु । जो इंद्रियांसीं अतिनिग्रहु । करूनि असे जयाचा पांगु । फिटला असे ॥ १९४ ॥

💡 Meaning

The term 'Pangu' is used metaphorically to describe the 'crippled' or 'dependent' state of a mind that is enslaved by sensory desires. When this dependency is severed through disciplined restraint, the seeker's consciousness becomes firmly established in the divine self.
