Spiegazione
Krishna offers the image of a tortoise drawing in its limbs on every side. In the same way, the person of steady wisdom withdraws the senses fully from their objects when needed. The image suggests both protection and control. A tortoise does not destroy its limbs; it draws them in and extends them at will. So too the wise person keeps the senses intact but is not dragged by them. The ability to withdraw at will is presented as a sign of established wisdom.
