Even pious kings who constantly perform sacrifices and have vanquished the elephants of the cardinal points, would not care for this Yoga; but would rather lay themselves down in battle, being attached to this earth and thinking it as their own—the earth which is the uninterrupted source of inimical relations and, on leaving which (they think) they are dead.
