एक उत्पद्यते जन्तु-रेक एव विपद्यते । कर्माण्यनुभवत्येकः प्रचितानि भवान्तरे ॥६॥ अन्यस्तेनाजितं वित्तं भूयः सम्भूय भुज्यते । स त्वेको नरककोडे क्लिश्यते निजकर्मभिः ।।६।।
Meaning : Every jiva passes through the various states of life alone. He also wanders alone through the cycles of birth and death.
Although he incurs the influx of karmas for the utility of others, when the time arrives to suffer the frutition of these karmas he is alone.
यत्रान्यत्वं शरीरस्य वैसदृश्याच्छरीरिणः । धनबन्धुसहायानां तत्रान्यत्वं न दुर्वचम् ॥७०॥ यो देहधनबन्धुभ्यो भिन्नमात्मानमीक्षते । क्व शोकशंकुना तस्य हन्तातङ्कः प्रतन्यते ॥७१।।
Meaning : The distinction between the soul and the body is evident from the fact that the soul is formless but endowed with eternal life while the body has form but is temporary. When these, which look like one are really separate then, is it not true to say that the so called companions like relatives and friends are other than soul ?
One who understands this distinction will never regret the separation from wealth, relatives, and body.
