Arthantaranyāsaḥ : Corroboration
tṛṣṇā na jirṇā vayameva jirnāḥ
kālo na yāto vayameva yātāḥ.
भोगा न भुक्ता वयमेव भुक्तास् / तपो न तप्तं वयमेव तप्ताः ।
तृष्णा न जीर्णा वयमेव जीणी: / कालो न यातो वयमेव याताः ॥
Enjoyments are not really enjoyed,
It's we who are thereby decayed,
Penance is not truly made,
It's we who are but tormented,
Thirst is never cooled, only we wear away
Time does not pass, only we pass away.
In this verse, very common ideas or popular conceptions have
been given in negative order and along with their falsity their con-
tradictory nature has been asserted.
