उत्पत्तिमायतिं स्थानं विभुत्वं चैव पञ्चधा। अध्यात्मं चैव प्राणस्य विज्ञायामृतमश्नुते विज्ञायामृतमश्नुत इति॥
utpattimāyatiṃ sthānaṃ vibhutvaṃ caiva pañcadhā | adhyātmaṃ caiva prāṇasya vijñāyāmṛtamaśnute vijñāyāmṛtamaśnuta iti ||
""Knowing the origin, arrival, abode, fivefold distribution, and the inner nature of Prana - one attains immortality, one attains immortality.""
What This Means:
Complete knowledge of Prana includes: where it comes from, how it arrives in the body, where it dwells, its five forms, and its spiritual nature. This knowledge grants immortality.
Going Deeper:
The repetition emphasizes: comprehensive knowledge of Prana equals liberation. The whole Prashna has been building to this.
How To Apply This:
Study Prana thoroughly - its origin, forms, and spiritual significance. This complete knowledge liberates.
