Material enjoyment

Страница на Русском Материальные наслаждения

markata-vairagya lit. ‘monkey renunciation’; outwardly presenting oneself as a renunciant while privately pursuing material enjoyment. Such behaviour is comparable to that of a monkey, who outwardly lives like a renunciant (wears no clothes, has no house, begs for food), but inwardly seeks only food, comfort, and the opposite sex.
