मा शरीरयथार्थज्ञैर्मिथ्यादृष्टिहताशयैः ।
धूर्तैः संकल्पविक्रीतैर्विमूढैः समतां व्रज ॥ ५६ ॥

mā śarīrayathārthajñairmithyādṛṣṭihatāśayaiḥ |
dhūrtaiḥ saṃkalpavikrītairvimūḍhaiḥ samatāṃ vraja || 56 ||

Do not become as one of those ignorant fools, who believe their bodies as their real good; and who are infatuated by sophistry and infidelity, and deluded by impostors to the gratification of their sensual appetites.
