Sanskrit

ya ātmano dṛśya-guṇeṣu sann iti vyavasyate sva-vyatirekato ’budhaḥ vinānuvādaṁ na ca tan manīṣitaṁ samyag yatas tyaktam upādadat pumān
Synonyms
yaḥ — anyone who; ātmanaḥ — of his own real identity, the soul; dṛśya-guṇeṣu — among the visible objects, beginning with the body; san — being situated in that position; iti — thus; vyavasyate — continues to act; sva-vyatirekataḥ — as if the body were independent of the soul; abudhaḥ — a rascal; vinā anuvādam — without proper analytical study; na — not; ca — also; tat — the body and other visible objects; manīṣitam — such considerations having been discussed; samyak — fully; yataḥ — because he is a fool; tyaktam — are rejected; upādadat — accepts this body as reality; pumān — a person.

Translation

One who considers his visible body, which is a product of the three modes of nature, to be independent of the soul is unaware of the basis of existence, and therefore he is a rascal. Those who are learned have rejected this conclusion because one can understand through full discussion that with no basis in soul, the visible body and senses would be insubstantial. Nonetheless, although his conclusion has been rejected, a foolish person considers it a reality.
