Krishna expands on the concept of the 'thief' by contrasting two types of eaters. Good, saintly people (santaḥ) who eat the remnants of a sacrifice (yajña-śiṣṭāśinaḥ) are released from all sins and karmic reactions (mucyante sarva-kilbiṣaiḥ). On the other hand, the sinful people (pāpā) who cook and prepare food purely for their own selfish enjoyment (ye pacanty ātma-kāraṇāt)—verily, those people are eating nothing but sin (bhuñjate te tv aghaṃ).
