The

five elements each have a characteristic that affects and attracts one

of the five senses. The ether as sound fascinates the mind through the

ear; air as touch draws the mind to itself through the skin; fire as

form manipulates the mind in its favour through the eye; water as taste

enslaves the mind through the tongue; and earth as smell intoxicates

the mind through the nose. The senses interact with the external world

and produce experiences which yield joy or grief. Falsely identifying

himself with the senses, man suffers in the coils of attachment. He

does not realize that he is neither the body nor the senses, that he is

Brahman (Godhead) Himself.
