A sobering continuation: having lodged in Being without memory, creatures come back "as what they were" — from tiger to gnat. A nightly bathing in the Source does not change a destiny, because it has not touched knowledge: he who fell asleep a tiger wakes a tiger. Unconscious nearness does not transfigure — such is the hard law that the honey parable spells out to the end.
The list of animals is chosen with a wry smile: predators and bloodsuckers, creatures that live on the life of others. Such is the inertia of ignorance: however often you return to Being without recognition, you come out the same consumer of what belongs to others. Only knowledge-and-love transfigures, and the Gītā draws the line with the same blade: he who remembers Me at the hour of departure "comes to Me"; the rest go each after his own memory (BG 8.5–6). Not where you visit but what you remember is what decides.
