Commentary (टीका)
This sloka emphasizes renunciation and spiritual transformation. It suggests that the physical body, a product of worldly impurities, should be metaphorically discarded like an outcast to achieve a higher spiritual state, *brahmībhāva*. The verse encourages individuals to transcend material attachments and illusions (*māyā*) associated with the physical form, to realize their divine potential by embracing spiritual wisdom and virtues. The imagery of an outcast conveys the idea of distancing oneself entirely from superficial identities to attain purity and spiritual enlightenment.
