Purūravā’s Song of Renunciation and the Glory of Sādhu-saṅga
सङ्गं न कुर्यादसतां शिश्नोदरतृपां क्वचित् । तस्यानुगस्तमस्यन्धे पतत्यन्धानुगान्धवत् ॥ ३ ॥
saṅgaṁ na kuryād asatāṁ śiśnodara-tṛpāṁ kvacit tasyānugas tamasy andhe pataty andhānugāndha-vat
Huwag makisama kailanman sa mga materyalistang ang hangad ay pagbusugin lamang ang pagnanasa at tiyan. Ang sumunod sa kanila ay mahuhulog sa pinakamalalim na dilim, gaya ng bulag na sumusunod sa bulag.
This verse warns that one should not associate with impious people absorbed in sex and appetite, because following them leads into the blind darkness of ignorance.
Krishna was instructing Uddhava on renunciation and devotion, emphasizing that spiritual life is protected by avoiding degrading company that strengthens lust, greed, and ignorance.
Choose uplifting company and media, avoid environments that normalize indulgence and addiction, and cultivate sādhusanga, discipline, and devotional practices that purify desire.
