Verse 3

यद्यहंकारसंत्यागं करोमि तदिदं प्रभो ।त्यजामि देहनामानं संनिवेशमशेषतः । ।जानुस्तम्भेन महता धार्यते सुतरुर्यथा ।अहंकारेण देहोऽयं तथैव किल धार्यते

In plain words

If I bring about the complete relinquishing of ahaṃkāra, my lord, then it comes to this: I abandon entirely the configuration called 'the body'. As a fine tree is held up by a mighty prop at its base, so indeed, just so, is this body held up by ahaṃkāra.
