The discrimination between the eternal and ephemeral is reckoned firstDispassion on the pleasures of this world and the other world is counted nextThereafter the six–fold wealth such as śama (restraint of mind) and finally a deep desire for liberation are prescribed.

Annotation

In this verse the four pre–requisites are told in a sequence because the preceding quality leads to the succeeding one. All achievements of this world and of the heavenly worlds are limited in time and hence anitya (impermanent) (Jagadguru).
