If one departs by any other channel than the Brahma-nadi, then one attains another place rather than liberation — this is established by scriptural statements like 'if one controls all the gates and departs, by the eye he goes to the sun, by the ear to that realm,' and by the teaching in Vyasa-yoga and the doctrine of moksha. "In the heart is Narayana" — 'you are said to dwell at the heart of the world' (Padma). If the life-principle is at the crown, the mind cannot be established in the heart. "Where prana is, there the mind; where the mind is, there the jiva," says Vyasa-yoga. Being established in yoga-holding means the yoga-covered one is firmly attached — that is the intended meaning.
