नैवाग्निर्दीप्यते तेषां जाठरश्च ततः परम् । आहारं वांछते नैव तन्न तेजोभिवर्धनम्
naivāgnirdīpyate teṣāṃ jāṭharaśca tataḥ param | āhāraṃ vāṃchate naiva tanna tejobhivardhanam
彼らの火は燃え立たず、ましてや消化の火もまた然り。食を欲することすらなく、ゆえに生命力と光輝は増さない。
Atithi (inferred from continuity)
Type: kshetra
Scene: A thin, anxious man sits before untouched food; the inner fire is dim, shown as a fading ember at the navel; surrounding shadows represent worry.
Mental torment from craving can sap even bodily vitality; serenity and moderation support tejas.
The verse is embedded in the Hāṭakeśvara-kṣetra-māhātmya narrative of Nāgara-khaṇḍa.
None directly; it uses the image of digestive fire to underscore the cost of agitation and attachment.
