Translation

This sheath called prāṇa, consisting of the five organs of action constitutes the vital sheath, permeated by which this food sheath gets connected to Atman and moves about in all activities.

Annotation

The five organs of action originate from the rajas component of the five elements. This sheath gives rise to notions such as – ‘I am hungry, I am thirsty, I am tired etc.,’. It is through this that the food sheath becomes meaningful and gets connected to Atman (Jagadguru). This sheath too is not Atman
