3.7

bhogā na bhuktā vayam eva bhuktās
tapo na taptaṃ vayam eva taptāḥ |
kālo na yāto vayam eva yātāstṛṣṇā
na jīrṇā vayam eva jīrṇāḥ ||

Sensual pleasures have not been enjoyed—we alone have been consumed;
ascetic austerity has not been performed—we alone have been scorched;
time has not passed—we alone have passed away;
craving has not aged—we alone have grown old.
