Anvaya

अयं तुayaṃ tu
But this realised person
मुक्त–देहःmukta–dehaḥ
devoid of identification with the body
तिष्ठतिtiṣṭhati
stays
अहि–निर्ल्वयनी इवahi–nirlvayanī iva
like the slough which has been cast off by the snake
चाल्यमानःcālyamānaḥ
being moved
इतः ततःitaḥ tataḥ
in different directions
यत्–किञ्चित्yat–kiñcit
a little bit
प्राण-वायुनाprāṇa-vāyunā
by the vital air

Translation

Just as a log gets drifted by the river in all uneven places, similarly the body of the realised person is conducted by the prārabdha–karma in its several bodily needs.

Annotation

The realised person stays merely as an observer.
