अर्थ – परस्त्रीमें अनुरागबुद्धि रखनेवाले व्यक्तिको जो इसी जन्ममें चिन्ता, आकुलता, भय, द्वेषभाव, बुद्धिका विनाश, अत्यन्त संताप, भ्रान्ति, भूख, प्यास, आघात, रोगवेदना और मरणरूप दुःख प्राप्त होते हैं; ये तो दूर रहें। किन्तु परस्त्रीसेवनजनित पापके प्रभावसे जन्मान्तरमें नरकगतिके प्राप्त होनेपर अग्निमें तपायी हुई लोहमय स्त्रियोंके आलिंगनसे जो चिरकाल तक बहुत दुःख प्राप्त होनेवाला है उसकी ओर भी उसका ध्यान नहीं जाता, यह कितने आश्वर्यकी बात है ।। २९ ।।

Ah! Let there remain far away the sufferings such as anxiety, agitation, fear, distress, loss of discernment, intense burning, delusion, hunger, thirst, injury, disease, and death—
all of which arise in this very life for one whose mind is attached to another’s wife.
But far more terrible is the suffering that awaits in the next birth—
where, in hell, one must endure long torment through the embrace of women formed of red-hot iron, their bodies blazing with fire.
How astonishing it is that one fails to reflect upon such dreadful consequences!
Explanation
This verse explains the terrible consequences of attachment to another’s spouse.
A person whose mind is drawn toward another’s partner suffers greatly even in this very life. Such a person becomes tormented by:
- constant worry and anxiety,
- fear and restlessness,
- loss of clarity and moral judgment,
- burning inner unrest,
- confusion, hunger, thirst, illness, and even premature death.
Yet these sufferings are minor compared to what awaits such a person after death. Because of this sinful attachment, the soul is destined for hellish realms, where unimaginable suffering occurs — symbolized by being forced to embrace red-hot iron figures shaped like women, burning endlessly in agony.
The verse expresses deep astonishment that people, despite knowing these consequences, still allow themselves to be ruled by desire.
Core message:
Lust blinds intelligence, destroys peace in this life, and leads to unbearable suffering in the next.
