रक्तमांसमयो देहो मनो नष्टं विचारणात् ।
जडाश्चित्तादयः सर्वे कुतोऽहंभावभावना ॥ १० ॥

raktamāṃsamayo deho mano naṣṭaṃ vicāraṇāt |
jaḍāścittādayaḥ sarve kuto'haṃbhāvabhāvanā || 10 ||

The body is composed of flesh and blood, and the mind is considered as a nullity of itself; the heart and the members are all dull objects, what then is it that contains the ego?
