Sanskrit Original
शयान उन्नद्धमदो महामना महार्हतल्पे महिषीभुजोपधि: । तामेव वीरो मनुते परं यत- स्तमोऽभिभूतो न निजं परं च यत् ॥ ४ ॥
śayāna unnaddha-mado mahā-manā mahārha-talpe mahiṣī-bhujopadhiḥ tām eva vīro manute paraṁ yatas tamo-’bhibhūto na nijaṁ paraṁ ca yat
In this way, increasingly overwhelmed by illusion, King Purañjana, although advanced in consciousness, remained always lying down with his head on the pillow of his wife’s arms. In this way he considered woman to be his ultimate life and soul. Becoming thus overwhelmed by the mode of ignorance, he could not understand the meaning of self-realization, whether regarding his own self or the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
