Penjelasan
Austerity is rajasic when it is done to gain respect, honour and veneration, or simply as a show. Krishna adds that such austerity is unstable and impermanent. Because it depends on the approval of others, it rises and falls with their attention. The verse points to a familiar temptation of religious life: discipline can become a way of building a reputation. When that happens, the effort may be great but its results do not last.
