14.11 sarva-dvāreṣu dehe ’smin (Original)

SrI: SrImathE SatakOpAya nama: SrImathE rAmAnujAya nama: SrImath varavaramunayE nama:

sarva-dvāreṣu dehe ’smin
prakāśa upajāyate
jñānaṁ yadā tadā vidyād
vivṛddhaṁ sattvam ity uta

‘When intelligence is seen to shine through all the avenues of this body, then it is to be known that Satvam is regnant.’

When jñāna (understanding) or intelligence is seen to shine through all the channels of knowledge, the eye and the rest, producing a right conception of things, then it is to be inferred from this that Satvam is in the ascendant.
