भावार्थ:

कई पुरुष द्रव्य संबंधी यज्ञ करने वाले हैं, कितने ही तपस्या रूप यज्ञ करने वाले हैं तथा दूसरे कितने ही योगरूप यज्ञ करने वाले हैं, कितने ही अहिंसादि तीक्ष्णव्रतों से युक्त यत्नशील पुरुष स्वाध्यायरूप ज्ञानयज्ञ करने वाले हैं॥28॥

Translation

Some offer their wealth as sacrifice, while others offer severe austerities as sacrifice. Some practice the eight-fold path of yogic practices, and yet others study the scriptures and cultivate knowledge as sacrifice, while observing strict vows.

English Translation Of Sri Shankaracharya’s Sanskrit Commentary By Swami Gambirananda
