The second part explains what that Heart looks like. We are familiar with the assertion that Puruб№Јa is in the Heart and that he is incorporeal, immortal and effulgent. That which resembles вЂpalate with Uvula hanging down in the middleвЂ™ is the seat of the Supreme Being from this seat a tuft of hairs comes forth and extends to the skull (without crossing it). Verse meaning: That Puruб№Јa is in the ДЂkДЃЕ›aбёҐ within the Heart he is incorporeal, immortal and effulgent. Word meaning: sa ya eб№Јa ДЃkДЃЕ›aбёҐ вЂ“ that which is the ДЂkДЃЕ›aбёҐ (one of the five fundamental elements) antarhб№›daya- antarhб№›daye вЂ“ within the Heart tasmin- in it ayaб№ѓ- that puruб№ЈaбёҐ- Puruб№Јa manomayaбёҐ- consisting of mind (not material), incorporeal amб№›taбёҐ- immortal hiraб№‡mayaбёҐ- of golden effulgence antareб№‡a- within, amidst, in the middle of tДЃlukeвЂ“ palate ya eб№Јa stana avalaб№ѓbate вЂ“ that which hangs down as a nipple (Uvula) iva- like, resembling sa- it indrayoniбёҐ- seat of Indra or seat of the Supreme Being yatra- where asau- that keЕ›ДЃnto- tuft of hair vivartate- expand, come forth from vyapohya- keeping off, not crossing Е›Д«rб№ЈakapДЃle- in the skull.

This takes us directly to verse 1.6.1 which contains a very decisive exposition of the seating of the Puruб№Јa in the inner Heart. For example, third verse of second passage in the first chapter is written as 1.2.3.ДЄs you know, we are concerned with only the rational thoughts which bear consistency with the spiritual philosophy universally propounded in the Upaniб№Јads. A verse is identified by the chapter number, passage, number and verse number. The text of this Upaniб№Јad is divided into three chapters (Valli) which are again divided into passages (AnuvДЃka) and verses.
