Shri Purohit Swami

इन्द्रियोंको (स्थूलशरीरसे) पर (श्रेष्ठ, सबल, प्रकाशक, व्यापक तथा सूक्ष्म) कहते हैं। इन्द्रियोंसे पर मन है, मनसे भी पर बुद्धि है औऱ जो बुद्धिसे भी पर है, वह (काम) है। इस तरह बुद्धिसे पर - (काम-) को जानकर अपने द्वारा अपने-आपको वशमें करके हे महाबाहो ! तू इस कामरूप दुर्जय शत्रुको मार डाल।

Swami Ramsukhdas

(शरीर से) परे (श्रेष्ठ) इन्द्रियाँ कही जाती हैं;  इन्द्रियों से परे मन है और मन से परे बुद्धि है, और जो बुद्धि से भी परे है, वह है आत्मा।
