1 Condemnation of Desire
To Him who appears radiant in the shimmering rays, like half-bloomed buds,
of the crescent moon which ornaments His head; who sportively burned Cupid
like a moth; whose presence augurs supreme well-being; who, like the sun,
inwardly dispels the dense darkness of ignorance engulfing the mind; who is
like a lamp of knowledge shining in the hearts of yogis; Victory to Shiva!

Sensual pleasures will surely leave us sometime, even if they stay with us

4 Description of the transiency of Enjoyments:
There is fear of disease in the enjoyment of sensual pleasures; in
lineage, fear of decline; in riches, fear of kings; fear of humiliation
in honor; fear of enemies when in power; fear of old age in beauty; in
learning, fear of disputants; in virtue, fear of the wicked; in body,
fear of death. All facets of man’s life on
earth engender fear; renunciation alone is fearless.

Birth is attacked by death, and bright youth by old age; contentment
by greed for wealth; peace of mind by seductive women; virtues by the
envy of others; forests by beasts of prey; kings by the unscrupulous;
and even fame by transitoriness. Is there anything on earth that is

Death is sure to make it powerless and aborb it into itself, again and again.

Sensual pleasures are transient like the breaking of high waves. Life can end

Life undulates like a wave. Youthful beauty lasts a few days. Riches are

crossing the ocean of cycles of births and deaths.

Life in the womb involves lying in discomfort amidst unclean surroundings,

The Way of Life of a Self-Realised Ascetic: Wearing a loin-cloth worn-out
and tattered into a hundred rags, with a wrap-around in similar condition,
free from anxiety, eating food from alms begged without any expectations,
sleeping in a forest or a cremation-ground, roaming freely without
hindrance, ever indrawn and calm, and also established in the great joy
of Divine union, ——-for such a one even sovereignty of the three
worlds is beneath comparison.
