The objects of the senses turn away from the abstinent man leaving the longing (behind); but his longing also turns away on seeing the Supreme.

Objects fall away from the embodied one who does not feed on them, but the taste for them remains; even the taste falls away once the highest is seen.

Krishna makes a careful observation. When the embodied one stops feeding the senses with their objects, the objects fall away, but the taste or longing (rasa) for them remains. Only when the highest is seen does even the taste disappear. The verse acknowledges that outward restraint alone is incomplete. Fasting or abstaining can remove the objects but not the hidden craving. True freedom comes from a higher experience that makes the old longings lose their hold, which different traditions describe in their own ways.
