(What is man without Atma?) Those that have not smelt the honey
of Thy Lotus feet seek the dead body, though it seems to be alive, con-
sisting of flesh, blood, bone, worms, excrement, phlegm, bile and gas,
covered over with skin, hair and nails. (Mula Prakriti in the Universe,
or Budhi in man, is wedded to Atma, represented by Sri Krishna.
The kings represent here the followers of material elements in the
Universe or in man.)
