FAQs
It warns that spiritual downfall often begins by returning to attachment and then normalizing it through company; association (saṅga) transmits moral and karmic influence, so guarding one’s company is essential for mokṣa-oriented life.
Bhakti thrives in satsanga and weakens in duḥsaṅga; the verse implies that even a renunciate can lose devotional steadiness by re-entering attachment-based circles, so devotion requires disciplined association that supports remembrance of Bhagavān.
No specific Vedāṅga (like Vyākaraṇa or Jyotiṣa) is taught here; the practical takeaway is dhārmic discipline—saṅga-niyama (regulating association)—as an applied ethic supporting sādhana and purification.
