When a person stops feeding the senses, the objects fall away, but the inner taste for them remains. Even that taste disappears once they experience the highest.
गीता 2.59 का हिंदी अर्थ
जब व्यक्ति इंद्रियों को विषय देना बंद करता है, तो विषय तो छूट जाते हैं पर उनका रस (लालसा) बना रहता है। परम सत्य का अनुभव होने पर वह रस भी छूट जाता है।
