And he
Bound, transmigrates again, so long as he does not know/51/
the lord, the agent of emanation, the binder of all creatures.
[The S膩mkhya view is incorrect] on account of the impossibility of
insensible matter being an agent, [and] on account of [their] not
admitting [instead] that [agency] for the person, [with the result

These [terrible], i.e., penances.
He says how he renounces [the body]:
from mountain, tree, water, and fire, by hurling off,
hanging, feeding [oneself]. /54/
The meaning is: having [first] resorted to a mountain, etc.; tree,
i.e., a banyan (va峁璦岣�) located at Pray膩ga岣�, etc.; feeding [oneself]
