Verse 12

⁷Know the mind for Brhadbala, the leader of both kinds of sense. The Pancalas are the five objects, and in among them lies the city with its nine openings. ⁸The two eyes, the two nostrils, the two ears, and the mouth, the organ and the anus: the gates go two by two, and by them he goes out, joined with the senses. ⁹The two eyes, the two nostrils and the mouth: these five are set facing east. The right ear is the southern gate, and the left is remembered as the northern. ¹⁰The two lower gates are called western: here they are the anus and the organ. Khadyota and Avirmukhi are the two eyes, made in one place, and by them, with sight, the lord looks at lit-up form.

¹¹The two nostrils are Nalini and Nalini; smell is called Saurabha. The nose is Avadhuta, the mouth is Mukhya, speech is Vipana, and taste is the one who knows taste. ¹²Apana here is the traffic of dealing, and Bahudana is food of many kinds. The right ear is Pitrhu, and the left is remembered as Devahu.
