Krishna addresses the mechanics of self-control. A person can physically restrict their body from consuming sense objects (nirāhārasya dehinaḥ)—like fasting, taking a vow of silence, or living in isolation. The objects turn away (viṣayā vinivartante). However, Krishna points out a massive flaw in this forced restriction: the 'Rasa' (the lingering taste, craving, or internal desire) remains (rasa-varjaṃ). This internal craving only permanently ceases (nivartate) when the soul experiences something far superior (paraṃ dṛṣṭvā).
