कोई इस शरीरीको आश्चर्यकी तरह देखता है और वैसे ही अन्य कोई इसका आश्चर्यकी तरह वर्णन करता है तथा अन्य कोई इसको आश्चर्यकी तरह सुनता है; और इसको सुनकर भी कोई नहीं जानता। अर्थात यह शरीरी दुर्विज्ञेय है।

कोई इस शरीरीको आश्चर्यकी तरह देखता है और वैसे ही अन्य कोई इसका आश्चर्यकी तरह वर्णन करता है तथा अन्य कोई इसको आश्चर्यकी तरह सुनता है; और इसको सुनकर भी कोई नहीं जानता। आहार, निद्रा और इंद्रिय-भार शरीर की स्थिति को सीधे बदलते हैं। यह पंक्ति उस शारीरिक आधार को छोड़कर केवल विचार की बात नहीं करती।
