6.5.41

nānubhūya na jānāti pumān viṣayatīkṣṇatām /
nirvidyate svayaṃ tasmān na tathā bhinnadhīḥ paraiḥ //

41. Without actual experience a person cannot realise the intensely evil character of the (worldly) objects; only through such experience one might have the (real) feeling of renunciation, but not when the mind is changed by others.
