Yoga Definition and Sāṃkhya Enumeration
प्रत्यतिष्ठं श्ष॒ तेष्वेव तान्येव स्थापयन्त्यपि । भजन्ते तानि चाद्यापि ये बालिशतरा नरा:
pratyatiṣṭhaṃs teṣv eva tāny eva sthāpayanty api | bhajante tāni cādyāpi ye bāliśatarā narāḥ ||
波罗舍罗说道：极其愚昧之人，至今仍固守于那些阿修罗般的心性；他们甚至重新树立并助长它们，而直到今日仍以种种方式执著并滋养这些倾向。
पराशर उवाच
Educational Q&A
Extreme folly is not passive: it keeps a person rooted in harmful, asuric patterns and even leads them to reinforce and spread those patterns. Ethical progress requires recognizing and abandoning such dispositions rather than revalidating them.
Parāśara is instructing his listener within the Śānti Parva’s didactic setting, describing how certain people—due to deep ignorance—continue to uphold and practice the same destructive attitudes, instead of turning toward dharma and discernment.
