क्षुदादिदुःखप्रतिकारतः स्थितिर्न चेन्द्रियार्थप्रभवाल्पसौख्यतः । ततो गुणो नास्ति च देहदेहिनोरितीदमित्थं भगवान् व्यजिज्ञपत् ॥
(४-३-१८)
By constantly feeding the body to subdue inflictions like hunger, and by indulging in transient pleasures of the senses, neither the body nor the soul remains unscathed. Such deeds thus benefit neither the body nor the soul; O Lord Abhinandananātha, you had thus expounded the true nature of reality.
