Since he was a foolish householder, accepting me and mine concerning his household, he became miserable at impending separation from his wife. He began to think of his daughters, sons, grandsons, daughters-in-law, sons-in-law, followers, remaining property, house, treasury and furniture. Yāmi means daughter-in-law. pramadayā viprayote upasthitaḥ means “when separated from a woman.” This does not refer to his intelligence since, when the gross body of the jīva is destroyed, there is no separation of the jīva from the intelligence. This refers to a conditioned jīva’s normal material wife, object of attachment, enjoyed by all the senses. The daughters and others mentioned in this verse also refer to conventional daughters and relatives, not the symbols in the spiritual metaphor. Some say that, at the time of death, the jīva thinks of his wife and sons, not of intelligence, discernment and other elements. Others say that dharmic intelligence was previously represented by his wife Purañjanī, but at the time of death, there is separation from dharmic intelligence, and joining with another intelligence. There are statements such as na mayy anāśite bhuṅkte: his wife would not take her dinner until he had finished his. (SB 4.28.19) This refers to a time before the separation from his dharmic intelligence. This will be explained later. The description in this verse presents the idea “I am not satisfied with my actions of dharma. What should I do? Death is now approaching.”
