अस्थिपट्टतुलास्तंभस्नायुबंधेन यंत्रितम् । रक्तमांसमृदालिप्तं विण्मूत्रद्रव्यभाजनम्
asthipaṭṭatulāstaṃbhasnāyubaṃdhena yaṃtritam | raktamāṃsamṛdāliptaṃ viṇmūtradravyabhājanam
हा देह स्नायूबंधाने यंत्रित आहे; अस्थींच्या पट्ट्या व स्तंभांसारखी त्याची रचना आहे। रक्त-मांसाच्या मातीने लिप्त, तो विष्ठा-मूत्रादि द्रव्यांचा पात्र आहे॥
Sūta (Lomaharṣaṇa) to the sages (deduced from Māheśvarakhaṇḍa narrative style)
Listener: dvija (addressed)
Scene: A yogin-teacher instructs a brāhmaṇa disciple; the human body is allegorized as a crude wooden-and-bone contraption, smeared with flesh and blood, emphasizing impermanence and impurity.
Seeing the body’s constructed and impure nature supports detachment and a turn toward liberation.
No tīrtha is mentioned; the verse is a contemplative critique of bodily attachment.
None; it functions as a meditation for dispassion (vairāgya).
