Sansara - Bhāvana:- The ocean of worldly existence is full of the waters in the form of birth, old age and deaih, and has the submarine fire in the form of cupid, whirlpool in the form of ignorance, and fishes, alligators, etc. in the form of calamities. In such a world [Sansāra ) how can we look for happiness ?
26 Ekatva-Bhavana:--The embodied souls come and go alone in this terrible forest of the phenomenal world. In this revolutionary world the embodied beings, having committed sins for themselves and others, go alone to the other world and alone experience distress [as the fruit of their evil actions), being without any shelter.
27 Anyatva Dhāvanā:.- The soul endowed with intelligence and eternal bliss is quite separate from all, outward phenomenon. When this body is evidently separate from the soul, what other thing is to be identified with this soul? . . . .
28 . . Ashuchi Bhavana:--This body, from which continually flows impurity through nine openings, is an abode of dirt. Who may be indifferent to one's spiritual good by being attached to the body which is ephemeral and an abode of diseasas?
