Dehānta (Cyavana) and Upapatti: Kāśyapa’s Questions and the Siddha’s Account of Death, Pain, and Karmic Re-embodiment
दुष्टान्नामिषपानं च यदन्योन्यविरोधि च । गुरु चाप्यमितं भुद्धक्ते नातिजीर्णेडपि वा पुन:
duṣṭān nāmiṣapānaṃ ca yad anyonyavirodhi ca | guru cāpy amitaṃ bhunkte nātijīrṇe ’pi vā punaḥ ||
成就者说道:他吞食不净之食与饮,乃至肉食与醉人之物;又将性质相互抵牾之物同食。时而取厚重之食,且量亦过度;有时前食未消,便又再食。
सिद्ध उवाच
The verse criticizes lack of restraint and discernment in consumption—taking impure items, mixing incompatible foods, overeating heavy meals, and eating again before digestion. Ethically, it points to self-control (dama) and mindful conduct (ācāra) as supports of dharma.
A Siddha is describing a person’s undisciplined habits, especially regarding food and drink, as part of a broader moral evaluation. The focus is on observable conduct that reveals inner disorder and ethical negligence.
