Erläuterung

Krishna explains the limits of sense pleasure. Enjoyments that arise from contact with objects are duḥkhayoni, wombs of sorrow. They begin and they end, and their ending brings loss, craving or disappointment. The wise person, budha, therefore does not find delight in them. The verse is not a call to grim self-denial but a clear-eyed look at the nature of pleasure that depends on outer things. It echoes the second chapter's teaching that sensations come and go and must be borne with patience.
