baleṣu hasti-balaādīni
[Through Saṁyama on] on the qualities beginning with the strengths of an elephant makes strength manifest
Here, systematic enquiry (saṁyama) is focused on the characteristics of certain creatures in order to gain a better understanding of their qualities, like strength. Through deep understanding, you can acquire such qualities for yourself.
