1.2.10

kāmasya nendriyaprītirlābho jīveta yāvatā /
jīvasya tattvajijñāsā nārtho yaśceha karmabhiḥ //

10. The end of Kama is not the gratification of the senses, but the benefit of Kama is only to that extent to which it contributes to the support of life. The chief end of life here is not the attainment of Swarga popularly known to be the result of pious duties, but it is the desire to enquire into Truth.
