कस्तवायं जडो मूको देहो भवति राघव ।
यदर्थं सुखदुःखाभ्यामवशः परिभूयसे ॥ ६१ ॥

kastavāyaṃ jaḍo mūko deho bhavati rāghava |
yadarthaṃ sukhaduḥkhābhyāmavaśaḥ paribhūyase || 61 ||

Of what good is this dull and dumb body to you, Rama? (in your future state), that you are so overcome by your alternate joy and grief at its pleasure and pain?
