The embodied beings become extremely glad when they again look at the place from which they take birth, suffering immense misery. Oh! of what kind is the play ol passion?
102 Men like moths, through blindness of infatuation, cast, themselves in the blazing flames of the fire of passions, in order to achieve happiness, but consequently they have to shed hot tears.
, 103 If you believe that passions will subside .. with the indulgence of sensual pleasures, then
this belief of yours is the result of ignorance; · because, on the contrary, the passions are
greatly excited by enjoyment as fire is more inflamed by pouring purified butter (Ghee ) in it.
104 By yielding to illusory attachment one destroys one's vitality (elixir Auid) which is the source of bodily strength and which develops intellectual powers and charming loveliness.
