TRANSLATION

A dancing puppet of a hundred joints, your mortal coil in its last moments: this physical form is doomed to destruction. Ashes to ashes, worm and dung, what was beautiful once is a horrible thing;

To adore it is the gravest misconception. My dear mind, hear the truth attentively: the panacea for this malady - chant Krsna’s name constantly; Krsna is the life of immortality." Â

REMARKS/EXTRA INFORMATION:

Bhaktivinoda

Thakura uses this verse as a purport for Verse 3 for the Siksastakam .
