Tapaḥ
181
Meaning : The attitude of the ignorant which takes the things in its own stride is pleasure-seeking while that of the wise is itself a great penance as it confronts the things which, where and when it should. (2) [242]
Notes : The instinct to imitate (FTTTT AN EFETA ) is not desirable as it is pleasure-seeking. People are most pleasure-loving and therefore, they do not go in for penance. But that is the attitude of the ignorant. The wise will go against this popular trend and will opt for penance. (2) [242]
