Being happy under pleasant conditions and unhappy under painful ones, makes a person a pleasure seeker (Bhogi) and not a ‘Yogi‘,(trying for spiritual union). A Yogi remains equanimous in both pain and pleasure.

A pleasure seeker is sick, unhappy and is doomed.

No person, happy with his own pleasure, can be a Yogi.

A seeker of pleasure, is not a spiritual aspirant (Yogi), but is a sick person, (Bhoge rogabhayam).

Union of two things etc., leads to enjoyment and Yoga (permanent linkage with God) happens singly and automatically. So long as pleasure is sought, till then Yoga could not be perceived. Only on the full renunciation of pleasure, Yoga (union) could be felt and achieving Yoga the desire for pleasure is wiped out, completely.

The association of God leads to Yoga and linkage with the world results in enjoying pleasure.

To derive pleasure from solitude and to enjoy the concentration of mind is enjoyment (Bhoga), but not spiritual union (Yoga).

To establish links with the world is Bhoga, but breaking those links is called Yoga.

One, who is sometimes a Yogi and at other times a pleasure seeker, he is in reality a Bhogi (enjoyer).

A Yogi brings happiness to all, but a Bhogi causes unhappiness to all.

To accept God as one’s own is Yoga, and desiring something of God is Bhoga.

Yoga is the result of separation (from the world) and Bhoga comes from contact with sense objects.

A pleasure seeker (Bhogi) is obligated to many, while a Yogi is indebted to none.
