Translation

On experiencing the fruit (realisation), the realised person does not again desire the body, which is ignored like a corpse and discarded far away; though it is seen (following) all along like the shadow of a person. It is seen as a mere appearance.

Annotation

1) ‘Mere appearance’ – Like the slough of a snake. 2) ‘Like the shadow’ – The body, though ignored, continues to appear till death. 3) ‘Does not desire’ – means that he does not have sense of identification with the body (Jagadguru).
