- **Commentary:**
=== Important Concepts (महत्वपूर्ण अवधारणाएँ) ===
  This sloka reflects on the significance of human life and the potential that it carries. The human body is described as "durlabham" or rare, emphasizing the unique opportunity it provides for spiritual growth and self-realization. It suggests that, among all creatures, humans have a distinct ability to exercise conscious will ("pauruṣam") and strive towards higher goals. The sloka poses a rhetorical question about foolishness and negligence, suggesting that failing to pursue one's true purpose and self-interest (in the spiritual sense) is the ultimate folly.

* [[svārtha|svārthe (स्वार्थ)]]
* [[mānuṣa-deha|mānuṣa-deha (मानुष देह)]]
* [[pauruṣa|pauruṣa (पौरुष)]]


  The term "mūḍhātmā" indicates a spiritual blindness or ignorance where one is oblivious to their higher purpose. The rarity of the human birth implies that one should not squander it by indulging merely in sensory pleasures or mundane pursuits. Instead, they should recognize and harness their potential for achieving spiritual enlightenment and fulfilling their life's true purpose. Thus, the sloka serves as a reminder to engage in self-reflection and purposeful action, making the best use of the human form and the opportunities it presents.

=== Commentary (टीका) ===
This verse underscores the folly of neglecting one's own best interests after obtaining a rare human body endowed with strength. *Mānuṣa deha* (human body) is considered a precious opportunity for spiritual growth and fulfillment of *dharma*. To engage in *pramāda* (negligence) towards one's *svārtha* (self-interest), especially after acquiring both *deha* (body) and *pauruṣa* (strength), is seen as a profound error. The sloka calls for deep introspection on the purpose of human life and employing it wisely.
