तिर्यगूर्ध्वमधश्शायी रश्मयः तस्य सन्तता । सन्तापयति स्वं देहमापादतलमास्तकः । तस्य मध्ये वह्निशिखा अणीयोर्ध्वा व्यवस्थिताः ॥१०॥

sanskrit

His rays, spreading all around, side ways as well as above and below, warm up the whole body from head to foot. In the center of That (Flame) abides the Tongue of Fire as the topmost of all subtle things. (Note: Due to the attachments and entanglements of the Jiva in worldly enjoyment and suffering, the Consciousness is enshrouded in potential as well as expressed objectivity, and hence it appears like a tiny streak of flame within the dark clouds of ignorance. But when the Jiva rises above worldliness the Consciousness is realised as he Infinite.)
