The world is in the hands of the one who knows the nature of the five (senses): taste, sight, touch, sound, and smell.
சுவை, ஒளி, ஊறு, ஒசை, நாற்றம் என்ற ஐந்து புலன்களின் இயல்பை அறிந்தவன் கையில் உலகம் உள்ளது.
Understanding the five senses — their nature, their power, their deceptions — gives one mastery over the world. The five senses are named precisely: taste (tongue), sight (eyes), touch (skin), sound (ears), smell (nose). The person who truly understands how these senses work, and therefore controls them, holds the world in their hands.
