# means of wordly enjoyments and the yogis surely take it to be the means of absolute knowledge. When on the realisation of truth, worldly enjoyments come to be looked upon as poisonous, why care about nourishing this body?
Notes:- This verse differentiates the standpoints with which the body is viewed by an ascetic and ly a worldly man. The worldly mang infected by the poison of worldly affairs and incapable of judging for himself, derives bappiness from sensual enjoyments which turn out pernicious in the end, while an ascetic turns to advantage the employment of mind and senses for the achievment of final bliss.
There is no necessity of uselessly nourishing this body when one is fully convinced, by spiritual knowledge, of the foulness of worldly oljects.
