ANNOTATIONS 38-39. The authors of the Curni and the Vrtti (commentary) have interpreted the word sannihāna (skt. sannidhana) as karma; but it sounds rather out of context. Actually, it should be "the storing or hoarding of food articles, etc. In the fifth section (aphs. 104-111) of the Second Chapter (viz. Subjugation of Worldliness), this topic has been discussed at length. Here we find an abstract of the same.
