Pasu (animal) is so named because it looks outward (Pasyathi ithi pasuh). Looking outward is the characteristic of animals, not of people. The important organs of sense perception in the human body — the eye, the nose, the tongue, etc.— all open outward in order to contact external objects, so one has to conclude that the physical urge, the body's vision (deha-drishti), is all external. The inner world is not as easily accessible as the outer world is. Perhaps only one among many, one in a million, does contact and win this inner Atmic reality through inward vision. That person is the wise one (jnani).
