But upon failing to do so, they reentered the body of the virāṭ-puruṣa one after another in order to wake Him.** ## Purport In order to wake the sleeping Deity-controller within, one has to rechannel the sense activities from concentration on the outside to concentration inside. In the following verses, the sense activities which are required to wake the *virāṭ-puruṣa* will be explained very nicely.
