- **Commentary:**
=== Translation (अनुवाद) ===
  This verse emphasizes the importance of intellectual inquiry and wise counsel in discerning the truth or understanding the essence of any matter. In many spiritual traditions, rituals such as bathing, charity, and breath control are often prescribed practices for purification and spiritual progress. However, this sloka suggests that these rituals, while having their own value, are not sufficient for grasping deep truths or making sound judgments.
The truth of meaning is perceived through thoughtful analysis and beneficial sayings, not through bathing, giving, or hundreds of breathing exercises.


  The verse highlights the significance of "vicāra" or thoughtful analysis and "hitoktitaḥ" or listening to wise advice. It underscores the idea that mere physical or ritualistic acts cannot replace the need for mental clarity and discernment. This perspective is particularly relevant in Vedantic philosophy, where self-inquiry (ātma-vicāra) is considered a crucial process for realizing the self and understanding the deeper principles of life.

  By stating that knowledge and understanding come not through external practices but through inner discernment, the sloka places a higher value on the cultivation of wisdom and intellect. It encourages seekers to engage in sincere contemplation and seek guidance from enlightened individuals to achieve true understanding, thereby promoting a balance between spiritual practices and the development of an insightful mind.

This verse emphasizes the importance of insight and discerning wisdom in attaining the true understanding of concepts or *artha*. It asserts that mere ritualistic acts like bathing, charity, or even extensive breathing exercises cannot lead to such knowledge. Instead, it is through *vicāra* or thoughtful analysis and *hitokti*—beneficial, wise sayings—that clarity arises. The teaching encourages a shift from external rituals to internal contemplation for realization, highlighting the emphasis Vedantic philosophy places on wisdom and understanding over ritualism.
