      A sober, self-realized person who has full knowledge should merge the various parts of the body in their original sources. The holes in the body are caused by the sky, the process of breathing is caused by the air, the heat of the body is caused by fire, and semen, blood and mucus are caused by water. The hard substances, like skin, muscle and bone, are caused by earth. In this way all the constituents of the body are caused by various elements, and they should be merged again into those elements.

      ityuktvā bhagavāñchālvaṃ gadayā bhīmavegayā. tatāḍa jatrau saṃrabdhaḥ sa cakampe vamannasṛk.
