Caitanya-caritāmṛta 15.17
eka aśva eka-kṣaṇe, pāṅca pāṅca dike ṭāne, eka mana kon dike yāya? eka-kāle sabe ṭāne, gela ghoḍāra parāṇe, ei duḥkha sahana nā yāya
[eka ashva eka-kshane, paancha paancha dike taane, eka mana kon dike yaaya? eka-kaale sabe taane, gela ghodaara paraane, ei duhkha sahana naa yaaya]

“My mind is just like a single horse being ridden by the five senses of perception, headed by sight. Each of My senses wants to ride that horse, and thus they pull My mind in five directions simultaneously. In what direction will it go? If they all pull at one time, certainly the horse will lose its life. How can I tolerate this atrocity?
