Katha Upanishad 6.6
intermediate
इन्द्रियाणां पृथग्भावमुदयास्तमयौ च यत्। पृथगुत्पद्यमानानां मत्वा धीरो न शोचति॥
indriyāṇāṃ pṛthagbhāvamudayāstamayau ca yat | pṛthagutpadyamānānāṃ matvā dhīro na śocati ||
""Understanding the separate nature of the senses, their rising and setting, and that they arise separately, the wise person grieves not.""
What This Means:
Knowing that senses arise and disappear, each functioning separately, the wise person doesn't grieve. Senses come and go; the Self remains.
Going Deeper:
Detachment from senses comes from understanding their transient, mechanical nature. They're not the Self.
How To Apply This:
Watch your senses arise and fade. You remain. Don't identify with what comes and goes.
