All the doors of the senses

produce pain

and pleasure

(by association

with the objects

of the senses).

Cease

attending to

senses

and their objects.

You

are contented

in your own being.

Note:

Whereas Lakshmanjoo and Hughes as well as Lakshmanjoo and Muju correlate the 110th and antepenultimate dhāraṇā with verse 136 of the scripture, Singh correlates it with verse 135.  

Rather than "cease to attend to," in The Manual for Self Realization, Swamiji prefers "leave aside."

In The Yoga of Delight, Wonder, and Astonishment, Jaideva Singh, chooses "should detach oneself from."

Lakshmanjoo and Muju's original reads as follows:

All the doors of senses produce pain and pleasure (by association with the objects of senses). Cease to attend to senses and their objects. You are contended in your own being.
