5.9 Speaking, letting go, seizing, opening and closing the eyes convinced that the senses move among the sense-objects.

A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami PrabhupadaEnglish

Because while speaking, evacuating, receiving, opening or closing his eyes, he always knows that only the material senses are engaged with their objects and that he is aloof from them.
