Whatever body He attains to and also from whatever He goes up, the Lord proceeds taking them with Him just as the wind takes odours from their receptacle.
When the Supreme Lord enters a body or leaves it, He gathers these senses together and travels on with them, as the wind gathers perfume while passing through the flowers.
Whatever body Its lord acquires and from whatever body It departs, It goes on Its way, taking these senses as the wind carrying scents from their places.
When the master leaves it and even when he assumes a body, he departs taking these, as wind (carries away) odours from their receptacles.
When the Lord obtains a body and when He leaves it, He takes these and goes (with them) as the wind takes the scents from their seats (flowers, etc.).
