।।16.23।।(टिप्पणी प0 829) जो मनुष्य शास्त्रविधिको छोड़कर अपनी इच्छासे मनमाना आचरण करता है? वह न सिद्धि(अन्तःकरणकी शुद्धि) को? न सुखको और न परमगतिको ही प्राप्त होता है।


Rudra Vaishnava Sampradaya - Commentary

It is not possible to renounce lust without performing authorised  spiritual
activities. Lord Krishna declares that that those who whimsically ignore  or
spitefully disregard the ordinances and injunctions prescribed in the  Vedic
scriptures expressly for the  benefit  of  all  beings  and  contrarily  act
frivolously  impelled  by  the  impulses  of  desire  will  achieve  neither
knowledge of  truth,  perfection  nor  moksa  or  liberation  from  material
existence. Such offenders  who  ignorantly  or  purposely  transgresses  the
eternal prohibitions of the Vedic scriptures will never be able to  maintain
any permanent happiness and tranquillity.

Shri Vaishnava Sampradaya - Commentary


The word sastra refers exclusively to the Vedic scriptures. Vidhi means  the
injunctions and  ordinances  within  them.  The  Vedic  scriptures  are  the
Supreme  Lord  Krishnas  mandates.  Whosoever  foolishly   abandons   these
instructions and utsrjya or transgresses the injunctions and  ordinances  to
drift whimsically wherever their desires  aimlessly  take  them  will  never
achieve siddhi or  perfection  beyond  mundane  conceptions,  never  achieve
sukham or happiness of any longevity or param  gatim  the  supreme  goal  of
human existence.
