Verse 14
The vessel that we use
To make jaggery from
Cane juice
Cannot take the sweetness.
The impressions that we
form of the world
Cannot take its essence.
Look at it this way. You have followed many practices to attain the ultimate. Now you know their nature and would not equate them with the ultimate happiness. Would you? Rather know their real nature as another set of worldly impressions.

How is it that we identify with the form and not the essence?
Read the next three verses to get the answer.
