Ninety-second technique. The door of the senses. Indriyadrārakam sarvam — everything has the senses as its door. Every pleasure, every pain, every experience arrives through a sensory door. Without senses, there is no objective experience.

Sukhaduḥkhādisaṃgamam — the encounter with pleasure, pain, and everything else. It is not that pleasure and pain are bad. They are neutral. They are information arriving through the senses. What makes them enslaving is identification — believing that pleasure is mine and pain threatens me.

Indriyāṇi saṃtyajya svasthaḥ svātmani vartate — abandoning the senses, one remains established in the Self. Saṃtyajya does not mean destroying the senses. It means releasing identification with them. Eyes see, ears hear, but I am not the eyes nor the ears. Svasthaḥ — established in oneself. That is supreme health. The Sanskrit word for health is literally “being in oneself.”
