Paliwanag

Krishna describes the yogic practice at death in detail. All the gates of the body, the senses through which the mind goes out, are closed. The mind is confined within the heart. The vital breath is drawn up and placed in the head, and the yogi remains firm in yogic concentration, dhāraṇā. These instructions reflect an ancient discipline of drawing life inward and upward. The sentence continues into the next verse, which names the sacred sound that accompanies this final act.
