A direct and strong warning: for one who does it all at once, shariram vilayam vrajet, "the body goes toward dissolution." The book must be given its due here. It describes a harmful undertaking — and, doing so, honestly warns that haste in it kills.
This warning is always present in such compositions and was discussed when reading the first chapter (1.35, 1.55). But here it stands especially sharply: not "you will hurt yourself," but you will destroy the body. Worth noting is the word yugapat, "at once, simultaneously." It also stood when reading the second chapter (2.5), where it was said that practice and meeting yugapat na eva sidhyati, "do not succeed at once."
One word in two places and two senses: there — that two things cannot be obtained at once; here — that everything cannot be done at once. And in both cases the discourse is about one human trait: impatience. The Vaishnava side counts impatience among the chief hindrances and speaks of it with the words of Chaitanya's Shikshashtaka, where devotion asks for patience, not strength: "more humble than a blade of grass, more patient than a tree." Patience is placed there alongside humility, and this is no accident — one who is impatient is usually one who counts himself entitled to receive.
