युद्धे शत्रुर्निर्जितो वा ततः किंभूयो मित्रैः पूरितो वा ततः किम् ।योगैः प्राप्ताः सिद्धयो वा ततः किंयेन स्वात्मा नैव साक्षात्कृतोऽभूत् ॥ ८ ॥
In plain words
You have conquered the enemy in battle — what of it? Friends have gathered around you again — what of it? You have attained Siddhis through Yogas — what of it, if you never once came face to face with your own Ātma?
Close to the Sanskrit
Whether the enemy has been conquered in battle — from that, what? Whether one has again been surrounded by friends — from that, what? Whether siddhis have been attained through yogas — from that, what? — for one by whom his own Ātma was not at all directly realized.
