এইদৰে নানা প্ৰকাৰে স্বামীক প্ৰেৰিত কৰি তাই নিত্যই তাৰ জীৱশক্তি নষ্ট কৰে। তাইৰ সঙ্গৰ ফলত জীৱস্বৰূপ সেই স্বামী তোক সম্যকভাৱে দেখা নাপায়—ইহলোকে আৰু পৰলোকে দুয়োতে।

FAQs
This verse warns that harmful attachment and influence can ruin a person’s vitality and spiritual discernment, obstructing right understanding of the Divine in both worlds.
It implies that delusion created by attachment carries over beyond death: the jīva’s clarity and ‘right vision’ is impaired here and in the hereafter, shaping post-death experience and destiny.
Choose uplifting company and counsel; avoid relationships that push one toward unethical acts or constant agitation, because such saṅga erodes inner strength and spiritual focus.
