________________ पाषाणेषु यथा हेम दुधमध्ये यथा घृतम् । विलमध्ये यथा तैसम देहमध्ये तपा शिवः ॥ २३ ॥ . काष्ठमध्ये यथा वह्निः शक्तिरुपेण तिष्ठति। " - अयमात्मा शरीरेषु यो जानाति स पंडितः । ॥ २४ ॥... The existence of soul in the body is similar to the existenee of gold in gold-ore clarified butter ( ghee ) in milk and oil in sesamum. As fire exists in wood in the latent form, in the like manner Divinity resides in the body. One who knows this fact is a wise person.
