Verses 108, 109
अर्थ - विवेकज्ञान के द्वारा मोह के नष्ट हो जाने पर किया गया परिग्रहों का त्याग निश्चय से जीव को ज़रा और मरण से रहित इस प्रकार कर देता है जिस प्रकार 'कुटीप्रवेश क्रिया' शरीर को विशुद्ध कर देती है।
On acquisition of discriminatory-knowledge (vivekajñāna), delusion (moha) gets destroyed and, consequently, on renunciation of worldly objects, certainly, the soul is freed from the cycle of births and deaths. This is akin to the ‘kuțīpraveśa kriyā"* which cleanses the body.
अभुक्त्वापि परित्यागात् स्वोच्छिष्टं विश्वमासितम् । येन चित्रं नमस्तस्मै कौमारब्रह्मचारिणे ॥१०९॥
अर्थ - आश्चर्य है; जिसने स्वयं न भोगते हुए विश्व के भोगों का त्याग करके उन्हें अपने उच्छिष्टरूप किया है उस बालब्रह्मचारी के लिये नमस्कार हो।
It is a wonder that the young celibate throws up for the world all objects of enjoyment that were available to him, without first enjoying these himself. Our salutation to him!
* The 'kutīpraveśa kriya' is a system of cleansing the body in Ayurveda.
The 'kuti' is a specially made hut where the patient, who has withdrawn from all sinful activities, is treated for several days with specially made medicines (rasāyana). The treatment results in long-life, enhanced memory, sharp intellect, health, youthfulness, and bodily brilliance. (see Pt. Balchandra Shastri (1980), 'Introduction' (prastāvanā) to 'Atmānusāsanam', p. 93-94.
