Desire that is so Known (26/40)

In the state of deep sleep (sushupti)
That taketh place in the region of heart
Are tattvas three - prana, citta and purusa.
Turiya state occureth in navel
Where prana standeth with purusa.
In the muladhara in turiya tita state
There purusa stands alone.
Jnana ripens then.
The matured in yogic practices experience this.
Thus do the tattvas in the five avastas (states) stand.
