Controlling His Five Senses
If a man is capable of controlling his five senses,
(by not doing any harm to anybody)
- his physical body, mouth, eyes, ears and nose
while facing the situation to do something harmful
demanding his virtue and character -
like the tortoise which withdraws into its shell
all the five parts of its body like four legs and head
while in danger;
It safeguards him, like a fort, in his future seven births.
