1.7.35
etānevaṃvidhāṃścānyān yo 'atimātraṃ niṣevate /
gajaṃ siṃha ivākarṣan sahasā sa vinaśyate //
(ativyavāyabhārādhvakarmabhiścātikarśitāḥ /
(krodhaśokabhayāyāsaiḥ krāntā ye cāpi mānavāḥ //)
(bālavṛddhapravātāśca ye coccairbahubhāṣakāḥ /)
(te varjayeyurvyāyāmaṃ kṣudhitāstṛṣitāśca ye //)
He who excessively engages in these and other such things
perishes suddenly, like a lion dragging an elephant.
(Those severely emaciated by excessive intercourse, carrying loads, walking paths, and hard work,
and those people overcome by anger, grief, fear, and fatigue,
children, the elderly, those with excess vāta, and those who speak loudly and continuously,
as well as those who are hungry and thirsty, should avoid exercise.)
