Adhyaya 37 — Alarka’s Crisis and the Teaching on Non-Attachment (Madālasa’s Instruction Recalled)
नाहम् उर्वो न सलिलं न ज्योतिरनिलो न च ।
नाकाशं किन्तु शारीरं समेत्य सुखमिष्यते ॥
nāham urvo na salilaṃ na jyotir anilo na ca /
nākāśaṃ kintu śārīraṃ sametya sukham iṣyate //
“ຂ້ອຍບໍ່ແມ່ນດິນ, ບໍ່ແມ່ນນ້ຳ, ບໍ່ແມ່ນໄຟ, ບໍ່ແມ່ນລົມ, ແລະ ບໍ່ແມ່ນອາກາດ. ແທ້ຈິງແລ້ວ ສະພາບທີ່ເປັນກາຍ—ເກີດຈາກການປະຊຸມຮວມຂອງສິ່ງເຫຼົ່ານັ້ນ—ຈຶ່ງໄປສະແຫວງຫາ (ແລະ ຈິນຕະນາວ່າ) ຄວາມສຸກ.”

FAQs
Suffering is reduced by loosening body-identification. The king articulates elemental analysis: the self is not the material constituents; the body-composite is what runs after pleasure.
This is adhyātma (spiritual philosophy) within narrative instruction, not one of the five defining Purāṇic categories.
The ‘not this’ (neti-neti) style disidentification points to the witnessing consciousness beyond the five elements. ‘Śārīraṃ sametya’ subtly indicates that bondage belongs to the constructed personality/body-complex, not to the pure Self.
